Diamond/Pearl/???

[Koroku]

...I didn't see a topic in the whole 2 pages...

When there was Red/Blue/(Green), they came out with Yellow.

When there was Gold/Silver, they came out with Crystal.

When there was Ruby/Sapphire, they came out with Emerald.

Now we got Diamond/Pearl on the horizon, and it's a pretty safe bet that there will be an additional game to go along with them.

Any speculation on the name?

I honestly have no idea. I can't think of a name that would go good with it...

Diamonds and Pearls don't really have any relation aside from being used to make jewelry. So it could be anything.

 

[Misty]

Amethyst!

I was planning to make a topic similar to this, nintendo made a remake of blue/red called leaf Green/Fire red .
maybe in 2010 they will make a remake of Gold/silver called beam silver/ice crystal
and in 2009, a remake of Ruby/sapphire called Storm sapphire/Ozone Emerald (?!?)
and i think Pokemon Dimond/Peal will be released in 2006, so they are going to make a remake of it in 2012..hmmm

anyway, sorry for changing the subject into a subject similar to it, they can call the advanced virsion of Dimond/Pearl , jewelry..like what another poster in this topic said

 

[Misty]

They won't be doing any remakes this gen - with DP/RSEFRLG compatability, there's no reason to. Unless they want to steal more cash from us, which I would not discount...

 

[Koroku]

There is no reason to remake anything at the moment, because you can get all 386 through the games. And D/P will be compatible with RSE, so there won't be a need for a reremake.

Pokemon Jade





yea I couldn't resist

 

[Archaic]

One gemstone caused by intense heat from high pressure, the other from the juices of something deep in the sea.....another Red/Blue pattern? Perhaps then Amber, which could fill the role of a Green/Emerald by being made of the sap of a tree?

If we assume it's going to be another gem of some sort, other possibilities might include (in alphabetical order)...
Amethyst
Coral
Ivory
Jade
Jet
Obsidian
Opal
Quartz
Topaz
Turquoise

 

[Mozz]

Platinum

 

[Misty]

... Amber's actually not a bad idea.

But yeah, Platinum's the most likely.

 

[Koroku]

I really like the idea of Amber...

Perhaps it could focus on a certian extinct Pokemon.

I'm going for Amethyst. But only because I wrote a Mary Sue in the Pokespecial universe with that name =D

 

[GrnMarvl14]

I gotta go with the Amethyst coalition. Dunno why, but it just feels right. I'd make a bad simile, but people would look at me weird.

 

[evkl]

Amethyst is too hard to spell. Kids would cry.

Note how no GB game has been longer than seven letters, and of those that weren't add-ons (Yellow, Crystal, Emerald), the longest was FOUR letters. I know that Diamond and Pearl both break the pattern, but still...=p

 

[GrnMarvl14]

I have two words to say in response to that post Evkl:

Silver. Sapphire.

 

[Misty]

You wouldn't believe how badly "sapphire" gets butchered.

 

[Koroku]

I still have the hardest time spelling "Sapphire"...

Actually I think I like Amber a lot too. It sounds cool for a pokemon name and implies a lot: diamonds come from rocks, pearls come from an animal, Amber comes from a plant.

Green.

Green was never released outside Japan... well, when it was, they renamed it Blue, didn't they?
