I would sit in this playground near my house for hours every day, sitting in a tube thing, just playing Diamond. Oh, the Underground, the WFC, the Wi-Fi Trades, this game was a golden time in my middle school years. I remember when I actually found one that worked, him and I were shocked and amazed, and he didn't believe I had actually done it. My best friend at the time had Pearl, and we would search for hours on YouTube AR codes to get Arceus, and none of them worked. I discovered ActionReplay, and hacked tf out of my game lol. (I dont have any of this anymore, the books, games, DS's, any of it, i really wish I did) God, i remember my gram brought me to Border's to buy the official game guide, and the Prima guide Diamond and Pearl Pokedex book. Cynthia will always be one of my fav video game characters, and she has an incredible battle theme. Summer 2008 I had finally beaten Cynthia on a car ride somewhere with friends (I remember it vividly, it was a hot July day I think, very sunny). I legit played it everyday, and LITERALLY was that meme of the kid hiding the DS under the blankets from my parents when I should have been in bed (I used to sleep with my door open, and got caught a few times). I remember I got a white DS Lite to replace my OG Blue DS, and this game blew my mind. I got Diamond from some random kid I went to middle school with (I don't remember how, and this was around 2007/2008) and MY GOD do i have MEMORIES with this game. I played like Yellow or Crystal when I was YOUNG but just like playing around. Pokemon Diamond was the first PKMN game I played as a kid through and through.
