The ''Diamond & Pearl'' series is different from 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, and likewise stemming from the cataclysmic nature of the plot of Sinnoh's resident [[villainous team]], [[Team Galactic]]. It has been subtly hinted that Ash may challenge the [[Elite Four]] in this series, in part due to appearances of [[Cynthia]], [[Lucian]], {{EF|Aaron}}, and {{EF|Flint}}. In ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', Lucian said to Ash, "We'll have our battle later". Based upon information about the [[M13|thirteenth Pokémon movie]], it is a possibility that Ash and his friends will visit Johto.

However, information developing about [[Generation V]] may mean that the series will end without ever leaving Sinnoh
