DS players can also connect to the Internet and 'battle' with other players around the world. Finally, players can wirelessly upload PokГѓВ©mon from Diamond and Pearl to the Wii games PokГѓВ©mon Battle Revolution and My PokГѓВ©mon Ranch. After completing a special mission in PokГѓВ©mon Ranger, the player will be able to send a Manaphy egg or Riolu from Ranger to Diamond or Pearl. PokГѓВ©mon transferred to Diamond and Pearl this way cannot be sent back to a Game Boy Advance cartridge. PokГѓВ©mon uploads are restricted to six every twenty-four hours per Game Boy Advance cartridge, and the player must capture the uploaded PokГѓВ©mon before performing another transfer. After six PokГѓВ©mon are uploaded from the cartridge, they are sent to the Pal Park, an area where the player can capture the transferred PokГѓВ©mon. After earning the National PokГѓВ©dex in Diamond and Pearl, the player can 'Migrate' PokГѓВ©mon from the Game Boy Advance games to Diamond and Pearl by inserting a Game Boy Advance cartridge into the Game Boy Advance cartridge slot of the Nintendo DS while Diamond or Pearl is in the DS slot. In addition to compatibility with each other, Diamond and Pearl offer compatibility with the Game Boy Advance PokГѓВ©mon RPGs, PokГѓВ©mon Ranger, and PokГѓВ©mon Battle Revolution. (The trade does not have to be instant an offer can be left for other players to browse and complete, even while the player is offline.) Certain species of PokГѓВ©mon traded internationally will have a PokГѓВ©dex entry in the language of the game it originated from. Players can search for any PokГѓВ©mon that they have seen in the game and can offer their own if another player is offering the requested PokГѓВ©mon and is looking for the offered PokГѓВ©mon, the trade occurs immediately.

The main system for trade is the Global Trade Station (which for PokГѓВ©mon art director Ken Sugimori was the new feature he was most pleased with ), that allows players to trade with people around the world. Diamond and Pearl also employ support for the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection (discontinued), allowing players to communicate through voice chat, trade, and battle online. The items mined in the Underground can then be transferred into the player's bag in the main game. Beneath Sinnoh's surface is the Underground ( ГЈВЃВЎГЈВЃВ‹ГЈВЃВ¤ГЈВЃВ†ГЈВ‚ВЌ ChikatsГ…В«ro), a large area used for wireless multiplayer gaming in it, players can create and decorate secret bases (first featured in PokГѓВ©mon Ruby and Sapphire) and participate in minigames. These applications are obtained throughout the game. The PokГѓВ©tch ( ГЈВѓВќГЈВ‚В±ГЈВѓВѓГЈВѓВЃ Poketchi), a simulated smartwatch, uses the DS's bottom screen and hosts applications including a clock, a calculator, a map, a counter, and a drawing pad. Some of the games' new features capitalize on the Nintendo DS's features. If the player cancels an evolution the PokГѓВ©mon will learn new moves faster. PokГѓВ©mon's stats also increase every time it levels up, and they will also learn new moves as well. After accumulating enough experience points, it can level up most PokГѓВ©mon evolve into a new species of PokГѓВ©mon whenever they reach a certain level.

If the player's PokГѓВ©mon defeats the opposing PokГѓВ©mon (causes it to faint), it receives experience points. All PokГѓВ©mon have hit points (HP) whenever a PokГѓВ©mon's HP is reduced to zero, it faints and cannot battle unless revived at a PokГѓВ©mon center or with an item. During battle, the player may fight, use an item, switch the active PokГѓВ©mon, or flee (the last not an option in battles against trainers).

Whenever the player encounters a wild PokГѓВ©mon or is challenged by a trainer to a battle, the screen switches to a turn-based battle screen where the PokГѓВ©mon fight. The player can also use his/her PokГѓВ©mon to do damage to the other PokГѓВ©mon. Once PokГѓВ©balls are obtained, the player can capture more PokГѓВ©mon using PokГѓВ©balls. The player begins the game with no PokГѓВ©mon or PokГѓВ© Balls, but is given the choice of three PokГѓВ©mon as a part of the story line. As with all PokГѓВ©mon games for handheld consoles, gameplay is in third-person overhead perspective, and consists of three basic screens: a field map, in which the player navigates the main character a battle screen and the menu, in which the player configures his or her party, items, or gameplay settings. The basic mechanics of the games are largely the same as their predecessors. PokГѓВ©mon Diamond and Pearl are role-playing games with adventure elements.
