Places of interest

Player's house

Main article:Player's house → Sinnoh

This is the house where theplayer lives before beginning their journey. Theplayer's mother lives here, and after the player has left town for the first time, going home and talking to her will fully rest/restore all the player's Pokémon, just like aPokémon Center.

There are two levels to the house, the first being a living room and kitchen area, while upstairs on the second level is the player's bedroom. It contains aWii controlled with aWii Remote, connected to atelevision, and aPC which reads:"Pokémon Basics... People live alongside Pokémon in this world. The people that battle Pokémon are called Pokémon Trainers." Due to the PC no longer having the item storage functionality,Lucas orDawn's PC only gives hints on how to play the game. A sign on the wall next to the stairs reads:

Rival's house

This is the house where the player's rival and his mother reside in. Like the player's house, there are two levels, the first being a living room and kitchen area, while upstairs on the second level is the rival's bedroom.

Demographics

Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl
