Pokemon Diamond & Pearl

I love Pokemon! I have Pearl. I should've gotten Diamond so my friend and I could trade. (She has Pearl, also) Anyway, it's so fun! I would love to talk Pokemon with you all. Hey, do you know if there's a way to trade pokemon with people anywhere? I've never done it.
I have to get off... BTW, my name's Tina.

I chose piplup in both Diamond and Platinum because Piplup is too cute! I get up to watch Pokemon every saturday morning!
