'''Diamond''' (Japanese: '''ダイヤモンド''' ''Diamond'', abbreviated to '''ダイヤ''' ''Dia'') is a main character in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]] and one of the male main characters for the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}.

Diamond is often apathetic and rarely not seen eating - even in dire situations, as was the case when he had a feast with his Pokémon while aboard a Team Galactic airship that was headed straight to their HQ. He shares these traits with his Pokémon, especially so with his Munchlax. While not fat, he is much less active and energetic when compared to {{adv|Pearl}} or {{adv|Platinum}}, as seen when Platinum mused that every morning since the trio began traveling together, Diamond would perpetually end up being the last to get up. However, he is always serious when it comes to food and is an expert at cooking [[Poffin]]s. He also displays an ability to analyze the situation at hand - when something strikes him as illogical, he will attempt to make sense out of it. Diamond has a somewhat natural instinct to judge how a Pokémon feels and can be quite observant when something arouses his interest. He is driven by emotion, thus associated with {{p|Mesprit}}.

Diamond then made one last detour and returned home to find some winter clothes that his mom bought him, finding a note left by his mom telling him that she heading to Lake Verity to get some [[Berry|Berries]]. Upon reading that, Diamond realized that his mother was in danger and rushes out of his house to the nearby lake, where he finds his mother being held hostage by Mars.

Soon after, Diamond and Pearl hear a large noise and runs to the location where it came from. Upon arriving, they find a giant dragon Pokémon called {{p|Giratina}} going on a rampage and destroying Eterna City. Immediately, Gi erupts from its Poké Ball to battle Giratina. Soon after, Charon appears and reveals that intends to kill Diamond and Pearl in his plan to capture the legendary and rare Pokémon of Sinnoh.  

Diamond and Gi face off Charon's {{p|Heatran}} while Pearl goes off to battle Giratina alone. With Gi's powerful {{m|Crush Grip}}, they manage to nearly defeat Heatran. When Charon forces Giratina to use {{m|Shadow Force}}, Diamond pushes Pearl out of the way of the attack, but gets hit by it in the process and is knocked unconscious. Much to Pearl's distress, he tries to wake Diamond up, but to no avail.

Seeing that its Trainer has died, Gi appears to leave, but soon returns with Rotom's appliances so that it can attack Charon in its rage. Together, Gi and Rotom force Charon and Giratina to retreat back into the Distortion World. Soon after, the Sinnoh Chairman and Dr. Footstep return to the scene after hearing all of the commotion. As soon as they return, Diamond's body suddenly begins to distort and disappears.

Later, Diamond awakens in another world, confused at his current surroundings. He quickly figures out that he is in the [[Distortion World]], having touched [[PS360|it]] [[PS415|three]] [[PS433|times]] prior. There, he encounters Cyrus, and asks him if he knows how to beat Giratina.  

===On hand===

|desc={{p|Munchlax|Lax}} (Jp: '''べー''' ''Bē'') was Diamond's first Pokémon and is often seen eating with him. He hides Berries and other items in his fur. He is very rarely seen in battle but it spends most of the time eating or being comedic relief. He is at level 56, has an Impish [[nature]], and uses the Ability {{a|Pickup}}.}}

|main=yes

|desc=Tru (Jp: '''るー''' ''Rū'') is first seen when {{adv|Platinum}} lets him out of his [[Poké Ball]], gives him a [[Pokédex]] for her bodyguards, and instructs him to give him to one of them. Matching the description, Tru chooses Diamond as his {{pkmn|Trainer}} and gives him the Pokédex. Right after that, a flock of {{p|Starly}} appear and begin attacking the group, which results in the three starters fighting and defeating them. When Tru and the other starters are training in [[Eterna City]] for Platinum's Gym battle with [[Gardenia]], Cynthia walks past them and notices that the three Pokémon are about to evolve, which they do right after. He later evolves into a {{p|Torterra}} along with [[Chimler]] at [[Veilstone City]]. He is at level 60, has a Relaxed nature, and has the Ability {{a|Overgrow}}.}}

|desc={{p|Bastiodon|Don}} (Jp: '''ぷー''' ''Pū'') originally was a {{p|Shieldon}} owned by [[Byron]], who failed to befriend him. However, Diamond was able to and the Gym Leader decided to give him to the boy. He has the same gluttonous nature as Diamond and {{adv|Lax}}, but to a lesser extent. During the showdown at the [[Galactic Veilstone Building]], he took the blow of five separate attacks at the same time and evolved in the process. He is at level 49 and has a Careful nature.

|desc=As a {{p|Lickitung}}, {{p|Lickilicky|Kit}} (Jp: '''りー''' ''Rī'') came from [[Lake Valor]], but followed the president of the Pokétch Company to [[Jubilife City]], where he made havoc by stealing passerby's stuff. After his map was stolen, Diamond confronted him and he evolved while the two were in battle. Diamond soon caught him and he developed a strong loyalty to the young boy. His powerful tongue can fling Diamond up high or pick Berries that are up high. He is at level 53 and has a Bold nature.

|epname=VS Dialga & Palkia I

|desc={{p|Mamoswine|Moo}} (Jp: '''むー''' ''Mū'') was caught by {{Adv|Platinum}} in [[Snowpoint City]] because he reminded her of Diamond. She gave Moo to him after the [[Veilstone City]] showdown with [[Team Galactic]]. He is incredibly powerful, being able to ram through walls easily. He is at level 65 and has a Hardy nature.

Later, during the final battle with [[Cyrus]] on [[Spear Pillar]], Gi appears from out of Platinum's bag to prevent Diamond from entering a black hole.

* Diamond's Moo is the first Pokémon introduced in any media that has a [[Hidden Ability]].
