The '''''Diamond & Pearl'' series''' of the [[Pokémon anime]] (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターダイヤモンド＆パール''' ''Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl'') is the third series of the long-running anime, following after the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and based on the events of the [[Generation IV]] games. It ran from September 28, 2006 to September 9, 2010 in Japan and from June 4, 2007 to February 5, 2011 in the United States, although the first three episodes aired as a sneak peak on April 20, 2007. | The '''''Diamond & Pearl'' series''' of the [[Pokémon anime]] (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターダイヤモンド＆パール''' ''Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl''), known as '''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl''' by [[The Pokémon Company International]], is the third series of the long-running anime, following after the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and based on the events of the [[Generation IV]] games.

Like the previous series, this series begins with [[Ash Ketchum]] beginning his journey by himself, this time through the [[Sinnoh]] region. His longtime companion {{an|Brock}} eventually rejoins him, as does {{an|Dawn}}, a rookie [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[Twinleaf Town]] who wishes to follow in the footsteps of her mother. | Like the previous series, this series begins with [[Ash Ketchum]] beginning his journey by himself, this time through the [[Sinnoh]] region.

Like what happened in the ''Advanced Generation'' series, both Ash and Brock received a change of clothes. As well, a similarity to the previous series is that Ash attempted to travel to Sinnoh with only {{AP|Pikachu}}. He was unsuccessful, however, as his recently-caught {{AP|Aipom}} insisted on accompanying him. | Like what happened in the ''Advanced Generation'' series, both Ash and Brock received a change of clothes.

Like ''Advanced Generation'' before it, Ash's {{an|May|previous female companion}} returned for a few episodes, wearing new clothes just as Ash and Brock do. | Like ''Advanced Generation'' before it, Ash's {{an|May|previous female companion}} returned for a few episodes, wearing new clothes just as Ash and Brock do.

Much like what occurred near to the end of the original series's journey through [[Johto]], with the move from cel-based coloring to digital coloring, the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series featured the show's move from a standard definition 4:3 presentation to a high-definition 16:9 format near to the middle of the Sinnoh journey. | Much like what occurred near to the end of the original series's journey through [[Johto]], with the move from cel-based coloring to digital coloring, the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series featured the show's move from a standard definition 4:3 presentation to a high-definition 16:9 format near to the middle of the Sinnoh journey. | ||

The ''Diamond & Pearl'' series is different from the previous two series in that it is more story driven. While there are less episodes dedicated to Ash's Gym quest or the resident Coordinator's (currently Dawn) Contest quest than previous series had in the same amount of time, more captures, more departures, and more rivals have been introduced when compared to earlier series. | The ''Diamond & Pearl'' series is different from the previous two series in that it is more story driven.
