 '''''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl''''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターダイヤモンド＆パール''' ''Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl'') is the third series of the [[Pokémon anime]] and is based on the events of the [[Generation IV]] [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]]. It follows ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'' and was succeeded by ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''. It ran from September 28, 2006 to September 9, 2010 in Japan and from June 4, 2007 to February 5, 2011 in {{pmin|the United States}}, although the first three episodes aired as a sneak peak in the United States on April 20, 2007. Two special episodes ([[DPS01]] and [[DPS02]]) were later shown on February 3, 2011 in Japan. It was not given an English name until after the release of ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''.
-Like the previous series, this series begins with [[Ash Ketchum]] beginning his {{pkmn|journey}} by himself, this time through the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]]. His longtime companion {{an|Brock}} eventually rejoins him, as does {{an|Dawn}}, a rookie [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[Twinleaf Town]] who wishes to follow in the footsteps of [[Johanna|her mother]].

-Like what happened in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'', both Ash and Brock received a change of clothes. As well, a similarity to the previous series is that Ash attempted to travel to Sinnoh with only {{AP|Pikachu}}. He was unsuccessful, however, as his recently-{{pkmn2|caught}} {{AP|Aipom}} insisted on accompanying him.
+Like what happened in ''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'', both Ash and Brock received a change of clothes. As well, a similarity to the previous series is that Ash's {{an|May|previous female companion}} returned for a few episodes, wearing new clothes just as Ash and Brock do. May's outfit was based on that of her {{ga|May|game counterpart}} during {{game|Emerald}}.
-Like ''Advanced Generation'' before it, Ash's {{an|May|previous female companion}} returned for a few episodes, wearing new clothes just as Ash and Brock do. May's outfit was based on that of her {{ga|May|game counterpart}} during {{game|Emerald}}.
 Much like what occurred near to the end of the original series's journey through [[Johto]], with the move from cel-based coloring to digital coloring, ''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl'' featured the show's move from a standard definition 4:3 presentation to a high-definition 16:9 format near to the middle of the Sinnoh journey. Additionally, moves like {{m|Water Gun}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}} started being rendered in CGI following this transition.

 ''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl'' is different from the previous two series in that it is more story driven. While there are fewer 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 more violent and dramatic than its predecessors, in part stemming from the character [[Paul]] whose training method sharply contrasts with Ash's so much that he 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]], as well as the actions of the heartless mercenary [[J]].
