We have a lot of interesting news about Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, and amazingly some of this stuff you are going to hate. So before I start, I hope all are well. I am pretty good, myself.

From PokeZam:
+ Our affiliate PokeZam is reporting the names of many different things related to Diamond and Pearl. The professors names will be named Professor Rowan! Manaphy has an ability named Hydration which fully recovers you from status problems if it is raining. And Manaphy has a special move called Heart Swap which swaps status conditions.

Pokemon.com is also pushing for you to go get Pokemon Ranger so that you can get Manaphy from the special mission. I am not sure if it is a one time only thing or not, but we shall see soon. The starting town is also now known as Twinleaf Town.

Post in the comments, if you like the names and things. I don't like the name of the first town, but I do like everything else.

Have a nice day!

Twinleaf sounds like they are running out of ideas...

Professor Rowan sounds like an old man. Really cool...

I hope it isn't a US only event, though...

I actually thing thats the best name for any of the proffesors yet! it's great.....................but twinleaf town...........thats the worst name for a location in a pokemon game yet! I hope, that is wrong and they just made a mistake...like how nintendo australia, once misnamed pokemon trozei, hehe..........

Twinleaf reminds me of Naruto, and I do not aprove. Never coming back to the starting town.
Professor Rowan sounds fine... But yes, better than the others.

Twinleaf Town sounds better then Littleroot or whatever it was called.

Why are all the professors named after trees? Next up, Professor Chestnut!

The tree thing is probably tradition. The starter towns are specific tree names.
Little Root
Twin Leaf
New Bark
Pallet dosn't count.

Also, I think they changed Team Galaxy to Team Galactic beacuse on the cartoon network, there is a show called "Team Galaxy" and that could cause problems...I think.


I can't believe the US info on Diamond & Pearl have the Japan screenshots in the pictures. LOL. People are probably like WHAT? Japan had this? I'm going to Serebii!

The next Prof. would be named Proffeser Willow and be a female Prof for once if I made the next game.

I doubt they'll put a female in another game, but make a thread about that, rather than discuss it here.

Rowan... I didn't think it was a tree at first, but apparently it is, so that's okay with me, lol.

I sure hope the rest of the towns have better names than "Twinleaf" though. =p

Yes, I do believe the Rowan tree is used in crafting. Some part of a bow, perhaps...

And yes, Twinleaf < Lotsa other names
