what's going on everyone austin john place here and today we're gonna be talking
about the version exclusive pokemon between pokemon brilliant diamond and shining pearl
as far as official information that we've received from the pokemon company there's
there's just very very little on what's going on between a lot of sporadic pieces of data mining
and some early information we actually have a better picture on what's going on with the
version differences here first and foremost you have your box legendaries these are placeholders
it's not the real game i don't even think this is the real album the the real cover art anymore
that was the the teaser cover art but yes we know about the box legendaries
that remains true from the original let me explain something about how this game works
that you're gonna play through the game and you're gonna have access to the local pokedex 150 pokemon
this is a concept that's a little foreign for some newer gamers if you started with sun and moon
and then after you complete that you then get access to the national decks in which
all of the pokemon up until that point become accessible what is that like 493 pokemon-ish
become available bdsp does a few things different that you do have access to some other pokemon
early namely the ones that were featured in platinum and platinum's local pokedex but
not diamond and pearls local pokedex this is all just very arbitrary information until you actually
play the game all you need to know is there's 150 pokemon at the beginning and some are exclusive
to each version and then it grows more and more and more and more i'm also going to be covering a
lot of data mine files and some of it is uh right now interpretation of things and there's also
contradicting information so a lot of this may be subject to change and i'm going to very clearly
state when things are uncertain so things should be taken with a grain of salt this is just what
we found from the data mine so far if the final information is vastly different there will be a
card on screen the title is going to be updated there's going to be new links everywhere to the
new video fully refining everything once that information is fully out for the holiday season
but as it stands right now for you know the early gamers the november gamers
this is what we have found so far if there's slight changes they're gonna be in a pin comment
down below and i've actually made a handy chart to help explain all this fun fact this used to be the
uh pokemon raiden update excel sheet that i have all right so in pokemon brilliant diamond you're
going to get access to the skull fossil which you can then revive to make kranidos and evolve
that to rampardos in pearl you're going to get access to the shield fossil which you get sheldon
and which evolves to bastion i don't believe the revival process is version exclusive meaning that
if you were to obtain a skull fossil in pearl you would be able to get yourself a kranidos in pearl
something else also a little strange in diamond you can find a wild silcoon and beauty fly and
in pearl you could find wild casco and dust docks if you're not familiar cascoon and silcoon evolve
from the same pokemon based on what's called a a personality trait and this is not the bold brash
or anything else like that it's a hidden trait that you can't see so you just have to catch a
bunch of them and then evolve them and then eventually you can get one silk [ __ ] and
you're gonna get one cast [ __ ] the difference is the location that you could first obtain this
pokemon which is the forest where you have the escort mission with the lady with the chansey
there are wild silkun and very rarely beautyfly likewise cascoon and dust docks as for a datamine
that has come out we have learned that mr mime and sudo wudo are version exclusive however strangely
enough it doesn't say anything about mime junior and bonsley so it may follow something similar to
the idea of the wild socoon and beautifly versus the wild cascoon and dustox however i think mime
junior and mr mimer both diamond bonsley and sudo udo are both pearl dalga and palkia being the box
legendaries obviously they're version exclusive and although not officially mentioned as well as
the whole mr mime sudo wudo thing it would appear as though murkrow and hodgecrow are exclusive to
diamond misdravius and miss magus are exclusive to pearl as they have been in the original games
and now we get on to some weird underground files there's still a whole lot of questioning as far
as how the underground system works and how the spawns work and everything else like that but it
looks like from the information that has been data mined so far all of this is very unofficial all
of this is just sort of interpretation of the data mine not legitimately like oh here's all the facts
done easy if there's updates to this i am going to be pinning it down in the uh the pin comment down
below so if there's something there that i wrote then it's correction of this also keep in mind
we're still a week out from the game i'm just helping you decide on which one you want to get
so all of this should be taken with a grain of salt it looks like scyther is
exclusive to pokemon diamond and pincer is exclusive to pearl the middle coat is
not exclusive to any game so scyther would have to be traded to one copy or the other
to get a scissor obviously it appears as though gligar and its evolution are exclusive to diamond
teddy ursa and ursuring are exclusive to pearl and it looks like the elliquid line may be exclusive
to diamond and the magby line may be exclusive to pearl this is just from the underground files
these pokemon may exist in the overworld somewhere else and we just i just haven't found it yet so
this might be a thing this might not be a thing but from what it looks like these six pokemon
are version exclusive two underground spawns they might be in the overworld but in the underground
they're exclusive and piggybacking off of that there's pokemon that supposedly open up after
you obtain the national decks and a really weird thing about that is that in pokemon pearl it says
that houndour and hound doom are version exclusive however it's been seen in in actual video evidence
that hound doom is in the underground in pokemon diamond at a very early level by the way
so maybe that was a 1.0 error don't have any video confirmation if that has changed in 1.1
i doubt that it has though and looking at the underground files it would appear as though
hound doom is a 100 percent spawn rate somewhere maybe this was originally planned to be that way
but because diamond nepal had such a lack of fire types at the beginning which is
it's either your starter or ponyta and that's it maybe they decided to include the hound doom here
houndoom is also the only pokemon on this list that i'm looking at that has a 100 percent spawn
rate in the underground so maybe that was something that was just done to combat the
fire type lacking issue but getting on with the national decks it says that in diamond
you'll have access to aaron larin agron larvitar pupitar tyranitar kecleon pucciano mighty anna
ceilin dugong and pearl you'll have the slowpoke and the branching evolutions
the bag on shogun salamance stantler houndoom and houndour supposedly feel cleo and walrun
whale reen whatever that is all unofficial information but has been listed in data mines
i have a lot more confidence in everything here except for the houndoom part then i have here
about this once you get access to romanus park you're going to be getting access to a whole
bunch of previous obtainable legendary pokemon in diamond you will have exclusive access to mewtwo
raku anti suicune and ho-oh in pearl you have raquaza articuno zapdos small trace and lugia
this is as per the official website and text and trailers that we have seen
i don't think we have any data mining to back this up or contradict it but it is official word so i
am gonna take it for what it says by the way this is the data mine of all the cartridges that's used
and the reason i actually put this here is because i don't know if the cartridges are going or uh the
slates that's it the slates are version exclusive so in diamond you could get the slate for the dogs
right but then can you trade the sleep to pearl and pearl can access the dogs this is unknown
information at the time maybe you can maybe you can't so in summary diamond you're going to have
cranidos rampardos stunky skunk stung tank mr mime and dialga pearl sheldon bastian glamio perogli
sudowoodo palkia diamond murkrow and haunch crow scyther pearl mistrevious ms maggias pincer
diamond aaron lehren agron larvitar pupitar tyranitar keck leon pucciano mighty anna seale
dugong pearl slow poke slow bro slow king bag on shell gone salamat stanler hound doom hound dowers
phil celia walrin this one is unconfirmed at this time uh one of my mods her favorite pokemon is
hound doom so i'm telling you that hound doom is available in diamond don't know if that's a deal
breaker uh i love salamance but now knowing that it's only available after i obtained the national
decks that's not like the biggest priority in my mind because i was leaning pearl anyways i
typically get both copies and then my first play through is uh the opposite one that everyone else
is playing so i usually play pearl meanwhile most people play diamond and then romanus park
this might be the deal breaker for some people mewtwo the dogs ho-oh pearl raquaza the birds
lugia i like the birds more than i like the dogs raquaz and mewtwo i like them equally i like lugia
more than ho-oh i know hot take it is what it is this all the more solidifies the fact that i'm
already have my eyes set up in fact i'm going to be getting the australian copy of pearl
i'm going to be playing that 8 a.m thursday morning i have a whole video on how to legally
play pokemon games early if you haven't seen that that's when i made it for sword and shield
same concept still applies and if uh future austin remembers he's gonna link it down there great well
guys that's all the version exclusives for pokemon brilliant diamond shining pearl did this influence
your decision at all or do you not care you're just gonna pick up both or you're just gonna get
one and just kind of deal with it and trade back and forth leave a comment down below if you're
