What Is Pokemon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl?

Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl bring players back to the Sinnoh region, where you'll go on an adventure while collecting, evolving, and battling Pokemon along the way. The Pokemon Company says these are faithful remakes, preserving the towns and routes found in the originals. However, the games will also include some quality-of-life improvements found in more recent games in the series.

And for those who need a reminder, the starter Pokemon are Chimchar, Turtwig, and Piplup. Brilliant Diamon's Legendary Pokemon is Dialga, while Shining Pearl's is Palkia.

In IGN's 2006 Pokemon Diamond and Pearl review the game received an 8.5, thanks to its "strategic depth and gameplay that's incredibly rewarding."
