is a title in the ''Pokémon'' series of video games. It was developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS handheld game console. It is an enhanced version of ''Pokémon Diamond'' and ''Pearl'' in the same vein as ''Pokémon Yellow'', ''Crystal'', and ''Emerald'', which were remakes of ''Red'' and ''Blue'', ''Gold'' and ''Silver'', and ''Ruby'' and ''Sapphire'', respectively. It was released on September 13, 2008, in Japan; March 22, 2009, in North America; May 14, 2009, in Australia and May 22, 2009, in Europe. The developers made ''Platinum'' with the intent of making it a stronger version of ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl'', which they described as the "ultimate" Pokémon titles. In ''Platinum'', players control either a male or female child character and start off with one of three Pokémon — Turtwig, Chimchar, or Piplup — from Professor Rowan. The mascot Pokémon is Giratina, who plays a central role in the game's plot. While it only had one form in ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl'', it is given a new alternate form alongside a new area called the Distortion World, which features altered physics from the normal land of Sinnoh, where the game takes place. The gameplay stays true to traditional ''Pokémon'' mechanics. Players explore a large area, which ranges from mountains to bodies of water, grasslands, populated areas, and snowy expanses. Similar to previous titles, players have their Pokémon fight turn-based battles against other Pokémon. ''Pokémon Platinum'' has been met with generally positive reception, holding aggregate scores of 84 and 83.14% at Metacritic and Game Rankings, respectively. It was praised for the additions and changes made to ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl'' by publications such as IGN, ''Nintendo Power'', and ''GamePro'', though it has also been criticized for being too similar to them. IGN ranked it as the ninth best Nintendo DS game ever made, as well as nominating it as one of the best DS role-playing games of 2009. It was the fastest-selling game in Japan at the time, selling 7.06 million copies by March 31, 2010.〔 ==Gameplay== (詳細はrole-playing game with adventure elements. Its basic mechanics are the same as those found in ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl'', featuring two-dimensional gameplay. As with all ''Pokémon'' games for hand-held consoles, gameplay is in third-person overhead perspective, and consists of three basic screens: a field map, in which the player navigates the main character; a battle screen; and the menu, in which the player configures his or her party, items, or gameplay settings. The player begins the game with one Pokémon and can capture more using Poké Balls. The player can also use his or her Pokémon to battle other Pokémon. When the player encounters a wild Pokémon or is challenged by a trainer to a battle, the screen switches to a turn-based battle screen where the Pokémon fight. During battle, the player may fight, use an item, switch the active Pokémon, or flee (the last not an option in battles against trainers). All Pokémon have hit points (HP); when a Pokémon's HP is reduced to zero, it faints and cannot battle unless revived with a Pokémon skill or item such as Revive or Max Revive. If the player's Pokémon defeats the opposing Pokémon (causes it to faint), it receives experience points. After accumulating enough experience points, it may level up; most Pokémon evolve into a new species of Pokémon when they reach a certain level. Apart from battling, capturing Pokémon is the most important element of ''Pokémon'' gameplay. Although other trainers' Pokémon cannot be captured, the player may use a Poké Ball on a wild Pokémon during battle. A successful capture adds the Pokémon to the player's active party or stores it in the PC if the player already has the maximum of six Pokémon. Factors in the success rate of capture include the HP of the target Pokémon and the strength of the Poké Ball used unless it is a Master Ball which has a 100% capture rate; the lower the target's HP and the stronger the Poké Ball, the higher the success rate of capture is. ''Platinum'' features largely the same Pokémon as in ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl'', with some added and some missing. ''Platinum'' features the Pokétch, a wristwatch-like device, introduced in ''Diamond'' and ''Pearl''. It feature simple applications such as a calculator, map, counter, and drawing pad. ''Platinum'' also features the Underground mode, a mode where players dig for spheres and Fossils. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pokémon Platinum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
