==History== | |||
Like [[Generation II]] followed from [[Generation I]], Generation IV follows from [[Generation III]], although it is unlike Generation II in that it is not a direct sequel ([[Hoenn]] is inaccessible in all Generation IV games). Like previous generations, Generation IV focuses on one main region across three games, the [[Sinnoh]] region featured in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} on the [[Nintendo DS]], released in 2006 and 2008 (and 2007 and 2009 outside Japan). Also like Generation II, the Generation IV games retain much compatibility with their Generation III counterparts, though in a different manner, and introduce many new Pokémon which are related to those of the previous three generations. | Like [[Generation II]] followed from [[Generation I]], Generation IV follows from [[Generation III]], although it is unlike Generation II in that it is not a direct sequel ([[Hoenn]] is inaccessible in all Generation IV games).
