In | In Korean versions of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, due to the illegality of gambling in South Korea and the classifications standards of the {{wp|Game Rating Board}}, the [[slot machine]]s were replaced with [[Slot machine#Korean Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum / European Platinum|game machines]]. The dialogue and other text was also altered to remove references to the slot machines and their functionality. {{TM|64|Explosion}} is instead given away at random by the Game Corner attendant as part of a TM promotion. | ||
These changes were later also made in European releases of Pokémon Platinum, as a result of changes in the classification standards at {{wp|Pan European Game Information|PEGI}}<ref>[http://www.gamesradar.com/european-pokemon-platinums-missing-game-corner-explained/ European Pokemon Platinum's missing Game Corner explained | GamesRadar]</ref>, including in the United Kingdom English version. | |||

Which kind of Clefairy appears indicates how likely to Bonus Round is to repeat; a transformed Ditto indicates a lower chance to repeat, a Clefairy indicates a moderate chance, and a Shiny Clefairy indicates a high chance. If Pikachu appears after the round is complete, it will be more likely to repeat (it will be less likely to repeat if Clefairy appears again). Players must continue spinning the reels until they get a 100-coin bonus. The odds of getting the bonus seem to improve if the slots are activated to the beat of Clefairy's clapping. | ||
At this point the bonus round will begin.

It only costs one coin to spin the reels while in the bonus round; after the reels begin spinning, the Clefairy will indicate which reel to stop first; left is Y, up is B, and right is A. Each time this is done correctly, three replays will be made possible, at 15 coins apiece. If the player does not follow Clefairy's instructions, but gets three of one image (including replays) coins will not be given. Each bonus round has 15 spins, meaning that a perfect one yields 210 coins. | ||
After 15 spins, the Clefairy will either stay for another bonus round or it will return to its Poké Ball and the bonus will end. This seems to be random. If ten or more bonus rounds are played in a row, the woman behind the counter will give {{TM|64|Explosion}} as a prize the first after this has been achieved. In order to obtain the TM, the player must lose a bonus round sometime after their tenth consecutive round; pressing Start to end the "Slot Session" will not count as having played 10 games in a row and will, in turn, not yield [[TM64]].

Getting a replay when the moon is red makes Clefairy tired, so following Clefairy's instructions during a red moon makes the Bonus Round less likely to repeat. | ||
On the other hand, the moon may also occasionally glow bright white. Following Clefairy's instructions will guarantee that Clefairy will stay for another bonus round. | |||

Diamond proceeded to exchange the coins Platinum had won for a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Zoom Lens}}. The next day, [[Maylene]]'s father tried to talk Platinum, who was passing by, into trying the slot machines, but she refused. This is also the location where Diamond first encountered [[Team Galactic]] in ''[[PS358|Stunning Staravia & Stinky Skuntank I]]'' while recovering the [[Pokédex]] Platinum had accidentally left behind. | ||

At the beginning of the chapter, [[Hareta]] and [[Mitsumi]] were seen playing the slots. Hareta was winning trays full of Coins while Mitsumi couldn't win at all--a possible reference to the actual differences in luck between the slot machines in the games. At the end of the chapter, Hareta returned to the Game Corner only to find out that Mitsumi still hadn't won once, and was determined not to leave until she finally did. | ||
