Pokéuniverse is a web site centered around Pokémon gaming series, providing as much information to the most detailed point of each game that has something to do with Pokémon. Hopefully you can bear with us and maybe have a look at a few of our pages. Then maybe, why not take a gander at our attempt to establish an active forum. It's not anything special, but why don't you just have a look? Maybe we can convince you to join and become part of this attempt? Who knows, you might make some new friends. Anyways, enjoy your visit! ~Faltzer
The News/Site Updates
I'll try my best to keep up with Pokémon Gaming news as much as I can, in order to keep all of you updated on what's going on with the gaming aspects of the kingdom. There will be times when I don't update because I have second thoughts of doing so, as I only tend to post genuine news.
Pokémon Platinum News
Been a while since my last update. Today involves some CoroCoro scans that were revealed. Nevux had found this on /v/ and informed me of it as the source. Lets see what we got ourselves today.
Along with what I gathered, so far all of the following has been confirmed.
For WiFi
- The Global Trade Station building is gone, replaced with the "Global Terminal" building (since you won't only be trading now)
- There is a new "Wi-Fi Club" where you can play new mini-games with up to 20 friends
- One of the games involves a Swalot and berries, presumably to make Poffin
- As revealed previously, you can play in the Underground with your friends over Wi-Fi
- The basements of each Pokemon Center are completely revamped
For Game Mechanics
- A new feature is the "Battle Recorder," which records your battles and broadcasts them around the world
- There is a new "Battle Frontier" with many different areas, and it is located where the Fight Area in D/P was
- Pokemon will have new battle sprites, as we mentioned in a previous news story
- The back sprites of Pokemon will be animated
For the Pokémon
- Giratina Origin Forme's ability is Levitate
- Giratina is only in its Origin Forme in the Reverse/Torn World, but there is a way of inducing its Origin Forme outside that is not known yet
- Shaymin Sky Forme's ability is Serene Grace
- As we mentioned in a previous story, Shaymin will transform into its Sky Forme when exposed to the key item "Glacidia's Flower"
For the Story
- Team Galactic is stronger and plays a larger role in the story
- Cyrus summons/confronts Palkia and Dialga, and then apparently Giratina right after
- An international police team is hunting Team Galactic (that detective guy from those first Platinum images is one of them)
- Team Galactic has a new executive (the other old man from the first Platinum images)
Plus, the official release date for Pokémon Platinum will be on September 13th, 2008 in Japan.
