CommonerShipping is the belief of a romantic relationship between Diamond and Platinum of the Pokémon Special manga. It is one-sided canon from Diamond's side, since Platinum remains clueless to his affection. The name is so because Diamond is a commoner compared to the extremely rich Platinum.
Diamond and Platinum
Diamond is one of the two main male protagonists of the Diamond and Pearl saga. Usually shown with some type of food item; doughnuts, cookies, etc. He seems to have a very laid back and calm personality. He has shown great care for his Pokemon and enjoys sharing even his food with them. He enjoys the company of Platinum in much the same way, also tending to think kindly of her as a princess figure such as when he first met her. Platinum once said "His determination is rock-solid".
Platinum is a very well mannered and skilled young girl, she is also the female protagonist of the Diamond and Pearl saga. She has her mind set on obtaining all the ribbons and Gym badges with the assistance of Diamond and Pearl, whom she originally believed to be her bodyguards.
