Game Description
A new generation of Pokémon adventure begins in Pokémon Pearl Version, where the mountainous Sinnoh region stretches from quiet Twinleaf Town to the heights of the Pokémon League. Choose Turtwig, Chimchar, or Piplup as your first partner, then capture and train a growing team while challenging eight Gym Leaders on the road to becoming Champion. Along the way, the scheming Team Galactic draws you into Sinnoh’s ancient legends and a confrontation involving Palkia, the Legendary Pokémon said to command the very fabric of space.
This RPG for Nintendo DS carries the classic Pokémon formula onto Nintendo’s dual-screen handheld with more than 100 new Pokémon, touch-screen battle commands, and the handy Pokétch filling the lower screen with useful applications. Explore the Underground for fossils and treasure, compete in Pokémon Super Contests, and build teams around an expanded selection of moves and abilities. As a physical cartridge release from Game Freak and Nintendo, Pearl captures a defining chapter of Pokémon’s DS era with deep exploration, familiar turn-based strategy, and plenty to discover beyond the main quest.

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact
Pokémon Pearl Version helped introduce the Sinnoh region and more than 100 new Pokémon during the franchise’s move to Nintendo DS, reaching North America in 2007. Developed by Game Freak, Pearl and its companion Diamond also marked the first main-series Pokémon generation built around Nintendo DS hardware, bringing the Pokétch, touch-screen interface features, and the expansive Underground to the traditional adventure. Sinnoh later returned in Pokémon Platinum and was revisited years later through Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, Pokémon Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus.
