On that day, the same day as Masuda's [[birthday]], a [[weather]] effect called {{wp|diamond dust}} occurred in Snowpoint City, replacing the usual snow. It resembles glitter in the air. It is purely aesthetic, since it only occurs within the city where no battles are possible. It has been determined that other special weather conditions such as thunderstorms happen on predetermined days throughout the year. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, diamond dust can be occasionally seen at the summit of [[Mt. Silver]]. | ||
