Should Pokémon Go fans pick the Diamond or Pearl path in Sinnoh event?
radiotimes.comDiamond or Pearl? Dialga or Palkia? These are the big decisions put towards Trainers in the latest Sinnoh event for Pokémon Go – but is one better than the other?
Set to take place in the middle of February, this new Pokémon Go 'Road to Sinnoh' will bring about multiple opportunities to get your hands on plenty of Gen 4 creatures.
The main stars are no doubt the legendary Pokémon Dialga from Pokémon Diamond and Palkia from Pokémon Pearl, which both received remakes a few years ago for the Nintendo Switch.
Now they're back in the spotlight once again on mobile.

If you're unsure whether to pick the Diamond or Pearl Path in the Pokémon Go Sinnoh event, we've outlined all the benefits of both below. So you can be rest assured you're making the right decision.
Choosing between the Diamond or Pearl path comes down to personal preference, with each bringing different rewards depending on your pick. See below for the options:
Personally, this writer would go for the Pearl path! Why? Well, to me, doubling the Spacial Rend effect is quite a big bonus for the Pearl path.
Spacial Rend will make the radius in which you can find Pokémon bigger for 10 whole minutes. This is handy if you want to catch lots of critters in a nice big area, in a short space of time, which really matches the intense bursts of my personal play-style.
Players on the Diamond path will instead be able to double the Roar of Time effect. This one, for six minutes, will pause the timer on any of your items including things like eggs and incense. If you tend to use a lot of those, you might prefer the Diamond path.
