Late 2021 Release Announced
The trailer officially confirmed that the Sinnoh reamkes would release worldwide sometime in late 2021. It has since been confirmed that the exact release date of the games would be November 19, 2021.
Platinum Dex Pokemon
Towards the end of the trailer, Porygon-Z is shown in battle. Porygon-Z was previously only available in Sinnoh in the expanded Pokedex of Pokemon Platinum.
Honey Trees Return
Honey Trees appear a couple times throughout the trailer, specifically the Honey Trees on Route 205 and in Valley Windworks. It has since been confirmed that the feature of slathering the trees with Honey to encounter special Pokemon will return.
All Honey Tree Locations and Pokemon
Drifloon Fridays Return
The trailer also shows the Drifloon that appears in the overworld of Valley Windworks only on Fridays, confirming that this weekly event is returning.
Poketch Campaign Clowns Return
The trailer features a shot of Jubilife TV with a campaign clown standing in front of the entrance. In the original games, you had to answer this clown's question correctly to get 1 of the coupons that unlocks the Poketch.
Chibi Art Style Look
Instead of trying to replicate 'real life' sizes, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will go with a cuter art style that closely resembles the older Pokemon games. Buildings, NPCs, and Pokemon are smaller in comparison to a more recent Pokemon game like Sword and Shield.
New Battle Move Animations
The official trailer shows new animations for the following attacks: Sludge Bomb, Bug Buzz, Brave Bird, Protect, Aura Sphere, and Hyper Beam.
