Pokemon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Showcase Gym Leader Redesigns

Next month, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl will release on Nintendo Switch, offering a number of differences from the game that originally released on DS. While The Pokemon Company has already highlighted a number of changes players can expect to see from the original, a new trailer released today put a big emphasis on two of the Sinnoh region’s Gym Leaders: Candice and Volkner. The Gym Leaders from the cities of Snowpoint and Sunyshore respectively, Candice and Volkner look similar to their appearances in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, but with some small updates that reflect the strength of the Switch platform.
