Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Update Enables Trading With Strangers, Two More Mythical Pokémon Coming To Sinnoh

With Arceus Legends and the surprise announcement of the late-2022 Scarlet/Violet versions, it’s easy to forget that Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl launched last Fall and are still going strong. Sinnoh’s remakes offer a wealth of content to its trainers. There are special Easter eggs, as well as other gifts. A new update for Shining Pearl, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl was released yesterday, which allows trade with other players. Moreover, two Mythical Pokémon can be encountered and caught for any players looking to fill out their ever-expanding Pokédex.

VGC The Global Wonder Station, Jubilife City finally has its doors open according to reports. In the past, an NPC would prevent players from entering the building, stating, “I’m so sorry. The GWS isn’t ready yet.” And now that players can access the GWS, they’ll have unrestricted trading. What does all this mean? Well, before yesterday’s 1.3.0 update, players could only trade with one another if they both entered the Global Union Room and submitted the same link code. GWS matches traders nearest to certain locations with trade points. 

 

Equally exciting are the two Mythical Pokémon joining the fray. Once you’ve obtained the Mystery Gift item, Arceus (see above) and Darkrai can be found. To come face-to-face with Arceus, you’ll need a Legends Arceus save file with all the main missions cleared. You’ll also need to be registered in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl’s Hall of Fame while owning the National Pokédex. If you meet these criteria, then return to your place to get the Azure Flute. You will summon Arceus once you’ve traveled to Spear Pillar atop Mount Coronet. 

Similarly, to meet Darkrai, you’ll need the aforementioned Diamond and Pearl accolades as well as a Member Card item “available between the new moons.” Head to Newmoon Island and battle the Dark-type creature. To get either one of these Mythical Pokémon, you’ll need to have the 1.3.0 update, so be sure to look into that first.


Is it possible to still enjoy Shining Pearl, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. Did you catch Arceus? We’d love to hear from you in the comments!
