New Locations: Distortion World: As the story unfolds, players will encounter the mysterious new Distortion World, an area unlike any seen in a Pokemon video game before.
The normal rules of time and space do not apply to this world, allowing the area to push the boundaries of the Pokemon game world. Players jump off pieces of dirt suspended in the air, walk sideways and even upside down.
The distortion world, where the powerful Giratina resides, is somehow connected to the regular Pokemon world. ~The Battle Frontier: The Battle Frontier zone (first introduced in Pokemon Emerald) has been added to Sinnoh, containing five new battle facilities for trainers, each with their own special rules.
Each facility is managed by one of five new Frontier Brains (characters similar to gymnastics leaders). New combat formats in each facility allow players to challenge each other in new ways.
Wi-Fi Plaza: Players can explore the new Wi-Fi Plaza, a virtual Pokemon amusement park filled with activities, including three new mini-games where up to 4 players can compete at a time.
Up to 20 players from around the world can connect together in the Wi-Fi Plaza to experience games, participate in parades, and even see a fireworks show.
Improved Storyline: New characters add to the story, including Charon, a new commander of the evil Galactic Team (who is suspect even by their standards) and an undercover detective, codenamed Looker, who is in pursuit of the Galactic team.
Looker will help you throughout your adventure. Team Galactic has a new scheme that they have set their sights on the three legendary titans of Sinnoh Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina (all three Pokemon appear together in this game for the first time).
