The '''''Diamond & Pearl'' series''' of the {{g|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, starting after the end of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. Like the previous series, [[Ash Ketchum]] is the main character who is joined by [[Brock]], his longtime companion, as well as {{an|Dawn}}, a rookie {{g|Coordinator}} who wishes to follow in the footsteps of her mother. 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.

Diamond & Pearl is different than the previous two series in that it is more story driven. While there have to date been 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. Additionally, this series is the most violent and dramatic of the three so far, in part stemming from the character [[Paul]] whose training method contrasts sharply with Ash's so much that he nearly abuses his Pokémon for not doing well. It has been subtly hinted that Ash may challenge the [[Elite Four]] in this series, in part due to appearances of [[Cynthia]], [[Lucian]], and {{EF|Aaron}}. In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', Lucian said to Ash, "We'll have our battle later".
