Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl are 2021 remakes of the 2006 Nintendo DS role-playing video games Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The games are part of the eighth generation of the Pokémon video game series and were developed by ILCA and published by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company for the Nintendo Switch. The games were released on 19 November 2021. They were announced as part of the 25th anniversary event alongside Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl received mixed reviews from critics who praised aspects of the gameplay but were divided over certain changes made to the original the games' visual design and lack of features (e.g. the Sinnoh Battle Frontier) from Pokémon Platinum.
