@@taiheart37 I half played ruby when I was rly young but thats cause my brother had it. My first pokemon game I played independantly was diamond and pearl. Then I went on to play hg/ss and black and white. I stopped after black and white
I absolutely adore how when you play the flutes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, they play the first couple notes of the intro theme, and the Azure Flute even plays some extended notes.
I just got Arceus, I noticed when you press start it sounds the same as the diamond start up. How far do I have to get to play these flutes? Or is it a spoiler?
The way in which the protagonists walk slowly in this intro (compared to them running in Platinum's intro) seems like an expression of Diamond & Perls dreaded slowness compared with Platinum.
@@Quetzalcoatl-Dragon_97 What are you blabbering about? Platinum was an improvement in almost every way, with plot being a notably improved, for example.
The ending of the intro scared me a little bit when I was a kid playing this game... but I had good times playing this game, I can't believe I lost it though ;-;. At least I found Pokémon Platinum that only cost 15 dollars at the flea market! And it worked perfectly.
2Fast4SONIC are you sure the platinum isn't fake? Just check since I would hate to find out if my platinum is fake. Also because the save file is more susceptible to corruption
When I was 8, I used to listen to this over and over through my headphones in my DS while trying to sleep. I was having a rough night tonight, so I decided to try it again after 10 years. It actually made me feel calm and tired with the nostalgia. I think I can sleep now. Thank you.
I first got this game when it came out in North America or really close to when it released in 2007. This was my first experience with the world of Pokemon and let me tell you it holds up to this day.
Still epic and creepy at the same time that the theme that plays at title screen is the Hall of Origin theme and sounds even more distorted than the original
2006 was my first year of high school. Coming from a small rural high-school, I'm pretty sure I was the only kid who bought the game (not that I've ever spoken to anyone about it). Everyone seemed pretty indifferent and pretty past the pokemon craze at this point. But inside me, my "pokemon steam" wouldn't stop running for another year or 2. I just kept it quietly to myself and played it at home, lol
0:22 through 0:33 gave me goosebumps all over my body I was drowning after not hearing it in years. But sorry folks my favorite game is Soul Silver. The fight with Red and being able to go to Kanto sold it. Plus the Legendary Dogs and Lugia was golden
I'm just here to remind myself of how nearly this entire theme was remixed upscaled and used in so many places in pokemon legends Arceus. God. It truly is THE remake. Bdsp was just a remaster.
0:22 through 0:32 is one of the hardest-hitting intro-sequences, musically, that the Pokemon franchise has ever had. I really miss that sort of dramatic gravity the series once held...
Good memories being either 6 or 7 years old playing this game. This was one of the first ever video games I played. My brother gave me his DS Lite and I think a few days later he gave me this game along with some other games. This was my 1st ever Pokémon game and my favorite pokémon game.
Gosh...remember when entire generations of pokemon were filled with multiple games and addons that just made the experience better? Gen 3 and Gen 4 was where it that was the best I think. This intro brings back thos memories.
me too. This is their last chance to redeem themselves for the lack of effort for the past years. Gen 4’s motive was to be the “ultimate generation” and it was.
This intro is my favorite out of all the Pokémon games; usually you get an action cutscene of Pokémon battling or flying on screen, and maybe a chipper tune during the opening cutscene, then the Pokémon theme song on the title screen, but here you just get the title theme during the intro then it turns sinister when it shows Mount Coronet, and then ambient Arceus noises on the title screen It sets a very different tone than the others and I love it
It’s been almost exactly ten years since I’ve first played Pokémon Diamond. It was the first Pokémon game I played so the nostalgia it’s insane for me. Especially when I knew very little about the game so exploring it was a big adventure for me.
Still have the dialga I caught in Diamond and Pearl all those years ago on my Sun and Moon save 😩 Have to say this was my favourite but my first was Fire Red. Nostalgia hit me like a truck.
I got a story for y’all who care, my brother bought me this game shortly after it’s release and I never got past the frozen city part, so like any man who just got a job I saved up for a Nintendo switch and bought brilliant diamond and beat it within 2 weeks
I've been a huge fan of pokemon since 2014 (I was 9) I first started playing after I read the first 3 chapters of the DPPt manga, I dont remember much of the music, but the intro in particular is something that I remember vividly and I feel nostalgic every time. Thanks Gamefreak and nintendo!!!
when/if they reveal the diamond and pearl remakes, they NEED to start by replicating the start of this intro, the part with he low pitched sound and when the logo comes on screen. I'll be extremely disappointed if they don't do this for the reveal. I want to be watching some pokemon digital event, see a black screen, hear the ominous sound of this intro, and know what's coming, then hear the music fully kick in. they NEED to reveal it like that.
I used to play this game alot during my visit to the hospital every month, but that was Yearss ago. I still have my nintendo ds in my cabinet somewhere, it functions but sadly the game card is broken, wish i could still play it, i miss my torterra, my very first pokemon i acquired :')
I’ve played R/B/Y, G/S/C, R/S/E/FR/LG but none of those games gave me the excitement and joy like Pokémon Diamond (Gen 4 overall including the remakes of Gen 2). I’m literally excited for the remakes to relive those memories, even if it is remade and tweaked a bit
When I got this it was with my lil sister and my cousin, I got diamond, my sis got pearl and my cousin got diamond as well. We decided to pick different starters each, they got turtwig n piplup so I was left with chimchar not my first choice but I learned a very helpful big thanks to it in the game. Chimchars leer doesn't work how it's supposed to, it traps pokemon in battle instead of lowering defense. Because of this I captured Abra right before the first cave leading to the first gym. I even used the same bug to capture an Abra in platinum.
Experience doesn't change during online play anymore..... thanks Nintendo. You couldn't maybe kill some lame 3ds online games and keep these games and Mario kart going.
They didn't just kill online for this game, they killed it for ALL online DS games. It wouldn't be very cost efficient for them to keep online play on for old outdated games that very few people even play anymore
Sinnoh series still has the most badass Pokémon intro to me
Chantal S I agree! :)
You God damn right ma dude
Sinnoh and Hoenn had fucking godly intros. I loved the silhouettes and the shining they had to them
DP Productions your not the only one sinnoh was the first Pokemon game I ever play and still is even today
@@taiheart37 I half played ruby when I was rly young but thats cause my brother had it. My first pokemon game I played independantly was diamond and pearl. Then I went on to play hg/ss and black and white. I stopped after black and white
Does anybody get chills when listening to the end, or is it just me?
Me too!
Actually the ending is the azure flute theme which plays when you’re about to catch arceus, that’s intentionally put there
It'll forever give me chills bro.
When I was 7 years old I never skipped this opening, I literally begged my parents to get me this game, and I still have it to this day
@@jnll9793 i lost my game cart but my cousin dumped it for me so
I absolutely adore how when you play the flutes in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, they play the first couple notes of the intro theme, and the Azure Flute even plays some extended notes.
Even more, the little jingle that plays when you rank up in Legends: Arceus also comes from this intro! I think it's cool
I just got Arceus, I noticed when you press start it sounds the same as the diamond start up. How far do I have to get to play these flutes? Or is it a spoiler?
The way in which the protagonists walk slowly in this intro (compared to them running in Platinum's intro) seems like an expression of Diamond & Perls dreaded slowness compared with Platinum.
True, but personally I always thought the slow power walk in this intro was an epic touch! :)
Diamond and Pearl walked so Platinum could run
Platinum wasn't as good plot wise and the art change felt weird.
@@Quetzalcoatl-Dragon_97 What are you blabbering about? Platinum was an improvement in almost every way, with plot being a notably improved, for example.
@@Quetzalcoatl-Dragon_97 ??? Like, no.
i refuse to acknowledge that diamond and pearl is more than a decade old now.

It is scary. lol

The exact same
Ana Kitagawa the first Pokémon Game i ever played was Platinum in 2013. Dang. It was before Nintendo WiFi shut down. Could have used GTS and WiFi Room
Okay
Almost x2
In my opinion still the best generation and the one with the most epic intro ever!
BLACK AND WHITE
@@newmanemeanaa6157I like Black and White as much as the next guy, but I'm sorry... I love Gen 4's intro so much more.
1:22 is what makes this pokemon opening the best out of all other games
THE FLUTE IN LEGENDS ARCEUS MAKES THAT SOUND
I'm so happy they brought back that little start noise in the remakes.
Same! I got instant chills when I first heard it. I feel like I’m 9 years old playing Pokémon Diamond for the first time again.
And now I can finally say this: SINNOH CONFIRMED!
Now this. THIS. Says "Welcome to the world of pokemon."
You know very well why you're here.

Its finally happening boys.
Can't wait to get my hands on those remakes.
0:22 through 0:32 is one of the hardest-hitting intro-sequences, musically, that the Pokemon franchise has ever had. I really miss that sort of dramatic gravity the series once held...
It sounds so somber and menacing, along with the logo using just black and white colors. Love it
I knew i recognized it in Legends, the flute sound is the little trill at the beginning of the video
It starts of heavy, then becomes very light harder just to throw an even heavier melody at you.
The ending was scary af
Ho, and 11 years later they use the little flute sound of the begenning in the flute to call mounts in Pokemon Legends: Arceus
Good memories being either 6 or 7 years old playing this game. This was one of the first ever video games I played. My brother gave me his DS Lite and I think a few days later he gave me this game along with some other games. This was my 1st ever Pokémon game and my favorite pokémon game.

Sooo... that's where the Azure Flute's song comes from...
Y'all know why you're here
DURURURURUT
This started it all for me. I love Pokemon dearly but it is sad to see what is has become nowadays.

Remember playing this game. Introduces to awesome new pokemon like lucario and the new starter pokemon. Good times...
Still have the dialga I caught in Diamond and Pearl all those years ago on my Sun and Moon save 😩
Have to say this was my favourite but my first was Fire Red. Nostalgia hit me like a truck.
My childhood, such memories, I just got into 6th grade when diamond and pearl released
Gen 4 was my fav gen of Pokemon no doubt! Thanks for uploading. So nostalgic now!
The flute!
Here after hearing about the remakes

Came back here cos of the remakes coming out soon
My 1st Pokémon game in 2007.
Sinnoh remakes confirmed.
I'm watching this because Sinnoh remakes may or may not be announced in about an hour!!
I did the same!
i really hope they keep this ominous feel in the remake title screen
That’s enough to make a grown man cry
Even if this is the last 2 min of our 20 minute direct tomorrow gamefreak is welcome to every dollar to my name atm.

I don't know why but I thought the background noises at 1:50 was someone digging a grave.
The first few seconds of this are the same as the Hall of Origin theme holy shit
And the last few!
