Pokémon Diamond and Pearl[edit]

The aforementioned article is of a game that is not yet released, but I'm looking to see if there are any suggestions that editors can give in order to improve the article. One aim is to get it at Good Article status. In particular, what needs referencing? Should some bits be given a reference to text that's in the game already? (That task would be hard but can be done - I find myself particularly good at reading Japanese.) What needs to be expanded upon?

What does this line mean? "Every Pokémon is catchable without using Pal Park (except for previous generations’ starter Pokémon, their evolutions, and Legendary Pokémon). However, there are Pokémon can only be caught with a specific GBA Pokémon game in Slot 2 of the DS." --Squilibob 01:23, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Is "The use of Pal Park for players is necessary if the player wishes to transfer starter Pokémon or Legendary Pokémon from a previous generation of Pokémon games. There are also Pokémon that are only available by having a Game Boy Advance Pokémon RPG inserted into the the secondary slot of the Nintendo DS." a better clarification, or is there anything more in that which needs reiteration? Cheers. - Tetsuya-san (talk : contribs) 02:22, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think that explains it properly. --Squilibob 05:59, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

*blinks* Ref 7 is...staggering...can't you just write a message somewhere in the intro instiead of having 15 citations that all say the same thing? Hbdragon88 09:27, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe something similar was done before, but that cluttered the article. Blue Mirage | Comment 12:15, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We've resorted back to using the {{Future_game}} template and removed the footnoting. Anything else? - Tetsuya-san (talk : contribs) 23:27, 28 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
