*The Lustrous and Adamant Orbs are no longer found on the [[Spear Pillar]] as in Diamond and Pearl. Instead, they must be found in a cave somewhere in the snowfields of [[Mt. Coronet]] which requires {{m|Waterfall}} to access. To be able to catch Dialga and Palkia, the player must have obtained the items in that cave and must have faced Giratina, whether it was caught or not. The player can then go up [[Mt. Coronet]] to where Giratina took him or her and Cyrus into the [[Distortion World]].

*If the player defeats a stationary [[List of wild Pokémon from in-game events|in-game event Pokémon]] (including most {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]]), it reappears next time the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. If the player defeats a [[roaming Pokémon]], it will reappear only after the player has re-triggered the event which caused it to start roaming; for example, the player must talk to [[Professor Oak]] to cause a [[Legendary birds|legendary bird]] to resume roaming. If the player flees from or defeats [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} in the [[Distortion World]], it will reappear in [[Turnback Cave]] in its Altered Forme, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.

**In Diamond and Pearl, this new rule applied to Dialga and Palkia only. In those games, entering the Hall of Fame causes them to respawn.
*Most opponents' Pokémon's levels have been increased by at least one. An example of this is that in Diamond and Pearl, {{ga|Barry}}'s first partner Pokémon in the battle at [[Pastoria City]] is at level 28. In Platinum, it is at level 36. However, the Pokémon used by opponents in the {{obp|Pokémon League|Sinnoh}} had their levels lowered.

*In locations where certain unevolved Pokémon can be found (like {{p|Numel}} on {{rt|227|Sinnoh}} and [[Stark Mountain]]), they are near the levels of the rest of the Pokémon in the area, whereas in Diamond and Pearl they were usually in the high 10s or low 20s.

* Some back sprites, although almost all of them are similar to those of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Diamond and Pearl]] versions, made slight stylistic changes, such as size changes, correction of graphical errors, pixel enhancement, and changes in color tones. A few Pokémon have very noticeable changes, such as [[Azumarill (Pokémon)|Azumarill]] or [[Gligar (Pokémon)|Gligar]].

* Front sprites for {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} and other Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] have also changed. Certain Pokémon not in the Sinnoh Pokédex, like {{p|Meowth}}, also received a change in sprites. The {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} sprites are still used when the player dresses up the Pokémon either in {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s or in the [[Jubilife TV]] station.
