===Rumors===
Rumors and speculations about a sequel or a sister game to {{v2|Diamond and Pearl|s}} started to arise like during the previous three generations. On February 2008, {{p|Giratina}} Origin Forme was revealed to the public, along with speculations of a new {{p|Shaymin}} forme. Shaymin Sky Forme was revealed on a leak June issue of [[CoroCoro]] on a low-resolution cell phone photo along with pictures of screenshots from the game that show a new overworld scene and a new in-battle scene for Giratina. Other rumored information included:
*The eighth [[gym leader]], [[Volkner]], would be replaced.
*The [[Underground]] would become WiFi enabled.
*A new area called The Battle Island would be introduced. This was partly true as [[Battle Frontier (Sinnoh)|a new Battle Frontier]] was introduced.
*There would be a new form of {{p|Regigigas}}, and the speculations about its type ranged from {{t|Ice}} to {{t|Flying}}.
===Pokémon Platinum announced===
In May 2008, {{g|Platinum}} was officially announced and will be released on 13 September 2008. Soon after {{p|Shaymin}}'s Sky Forme was accidentally revealed on a advertisement for a Pokémon drinking cup before the item was quickly taken off. More information was released in the August issue of [[CoroCoro]] including official information on {{p|Giratina}} and {{p|Shaymin}} alternate forms along with information on the [[Ruined World]] and the {{p|Regigigas}} event. Pictures were revealed introducing {{p|Giratina}} Origin Forme in battle and the archway into [[Floaroma Town]]. Then finally in July 2008, the first trailer for Pokémon Platinum came out during an event showing more of the [[Ruined World]] and revealing more battle scenes and areas.

==Beta music==
A beta track has been found in the music, possibly as a test track. The track, in question, is a remix of the opening theme of the [[Generation III]] games; [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|''Pokémon Ruby'', ''Sapphire'']], and ''{{pkmn|Emerald}}''.
