{{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} are preparing to help {{adv|Platinum}} train {{p|Piplup}} for its upcoming battle with [[Roark]]. In a flashback to the day before, Roark returns to the [[Oreburgh Mine|mines]], and impresses his mining crew with the fossils he found. Platinum appears and asks Roark for a battle. They agree to battle in two days time. Back in the present, Pearl comments on how strong willed Piplup is and decides to help Platinum train. Platinum comments on her knowledge of type advantages, but claims that reading and experiencing are two different things. Diamond starts practice battling with Platinum in preparation for the upcoming gym battle. They assign Platinum and Piplup a training regimen to help prepare.
{{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} are preparing to help {{adv|Platinum}} train {{p|Piplup}} for its upcoming battle with [[Roark]]. In a flashback to the day before, Roark returns to the [[Oreburgh Mine|mines]], and impresses his mining crew with the [[fossil]]s he found. He explains that the reason he was late to work was because he was visiting his [[Byron|father]] in [[Canalave City]], who had told him he had something urgent to tell him. Before Roark can elaborate, he notices Platinum. She asks to challenge him at his [[Gym]], and the two make a plan to battle in two days.


The next day, the group arrives at the [[Oreburgh Gym]]. A trainer challenges Platinum to a battle, and Diamond and Pearl get kicked out of the gym by a statue for giving Platinum advice, and eating and drinking inside the gym. Diamond stands on Pearl's shoulders in order to watch the battle through the window. Meanwhile, Platinum has defeated all of the trainers and is starting her battle with Roark. Roark starts the match using his {{TP|Roark|Cranidos}}'s {{m|Shock Wave}} attack. Roark substitutes Cranidos for {{p|Onix}}, while Platinum substitutes Piplup for {{TP|Platinum|Ponyta}}. Onix uses {{m|Double-Edge}} and {{m|Stealth Rock}}. Platinum is forced to substitute Piplup back in, who instantly uses {{m|Water Gun}} to force Onix out of the battle. Roark is sure that he has won and has Cranidos use {{m|Double Team}} to prevent Piplup from hitting it. Seeing this, Diamond and Pearl start their comedy routine, giving Platinum a hint to confuse Cranidos. Roark has Cranidos use {{m|Zen Headbutt}}, but Piplup uses {{m|Water Pulse}} and confuses Cranidos. Cranidos knocks itself out, making Platinum the winner. Roark gives Platinum the {{badge|Coal}}, and Piplup regains it's confidence. Afterwards, Pearl mentions his father.
Back in the present, Pearl enthuses over Piplup's strong-willed personality. Inspired by Piplup's passion for battle, Pearl becomes determined to help it become strong enough to win a Gym battle. He calls on [[Chimler]] to practice against Piplup, and after their battle, Platinum tells the others that while she has spent much time reading about battles, nothing compares to actually experiencing one. While wearing a cardboard mask of Roark's face, Diamond starts a practice battle against Platinum. Diamond and Pearl assign Platinum and Piplup a training regimen to help prepare for their upcoming match.
 
Meanwhile at [[Sandgem Town]], [[Professor Rowan]] and [[Mr. Berlitz]] finish up packing for a conference in Canalave City. When Professor Rowan asks Mr. Berlitz about Platinum, he reveals that he isn't worried about her as she makes her way to [[Mt. Coronet]]. He is happy that his daughter has the opportunity to try new experiences, while also being protected by her bodyguards.
 
The next day, the group arrives at the [[Oreburgh Gym]]. A {{pkmn|Trainer}} challenges Platinum to a battle, and Pearl attempts to give her advice when he senses that Platinum is going to have Piplup use {{m|Pound}} against her opponent. As soon as he does so, a voice speaks through a statue and tells Diamond and Pearl that they are not permitted to coach Trainers during a Gym challenge. The two are thrown out, and Pearl orders Diamond to stand on his shoulders so that he can watch Platinum battle through a window. By the time Diamond has a view of Platinum, she has already defeated all of the other Trainers and made her way to Roark.  
 
Roark starts the match using his {{TP|Roark|Cranidos}}'s {{m|Shock Wave}} attack. Piplup takes a great deal of damage from the supereffective attack, and Roark substitutes Cranidos for {{p|Onix}} to deliver the final blow. Before Onix can, Platinum switches Piplup for {{TP|Platinum|Ponyta}}. Onix uses {{m|Double-Edge}} and {{m|Stealth Rock}}, then a {{m|Slam}} attack to knock out Ponyta. Platinum is forced to substitute Piplup back in, who takes even more damage from Stealth Rock. Unleashing a powerful {{m|Water Gun}} attack against Onix, Piplup knocks it out.
 
Roark sends Cranidos back into the battle and has it use {{m|Double Team}} to prevent Piplup from hitting it. Through the window, Diamond and Pearl see that there doesn't seem to be any hope for Piplup to win the battle. Pearl threatens to fine her out of one million if she loses. They try to give her advice, but the voice through the statue yells at them. To secretly deliver advice for Platinum to utilize {{status|Confusion}} against Cranidos, Diamond and Pearl decide to hide a hint in their comedy routine. Platinum catches on, and when Roark has Cranidos use {{m|Zen Headbutt}}, Piplup uses {{m|Water Pulse}} and confuses Cranidos. Cranidos knocks itself out, making Platinum the winner. Roark gives Platinum the {{badge|Coal}}, and Piplup regains its confidence.  
 
As the three walk back to the hotel, Platinum asks Pearl how he knew that she was going to have Piplup use a Pound attack at the start of her first battle. Pearl figures that he learned that trick from his [[Palmer|dad]], who left when he was younger. Platinum smiles that her father would choose a bodyguard that came from a legacy of strong Trainers. She reveals to Pearl that she prepared a fine of one million in the event that she lost, but is glad that she doesn't have to use it. The information is so shocking to Pearl that it causes him to collapse. As Pearl staggers away from Diamond and Platinum, the two admire his strong-willed personality.

Diamond and Pearl are preparing to help Platinum train Piplup for its upcoming battle with Roark. In a flashback to the day before, Roark returns to the mines, and impresses his mining crew with the fossils he found. He explains that the reason he was late to work was because he was visiting his father in Canalave City, who had told him he had something urgent to tell him. Before Roark can elaborate, he notices Platinum. She asks to challenge him at his Gym, and the two make a plan to battle in two days.

Back in the present, Pearl enthuses over Piplup's strong-willed personality. Inspired by Piplup's passion for battle, Pearl becomes determined to help it become strong enough to win a Gym battle. He calls on Chimler to practice against Piplup, and after their battle, Platinum tells the others that while she has spent much time reading about battles, nothing compares to actually experiencing one. While wearing a cardboard mask of Roark's face, Diamond starts a practice battle against Platinum. Diamond and Pearl assign Platinum and Piplup a training regimen to help prepare for their upcoming match.

Meanwhile at Sandgem Town, Professor Rowan and Mr. Berlitz finish up packing for a conference in Canalave City. When Professor Rowan asks Mr. Berlitz about Platinum, he reveals that he isn't worried about her as she makes her way to Mt. Coronet. He is happy that his daughter has the opportunity to try new experiences, while also being protected by her bodyguards.

The next day, the group arrives at the Oreburgh Gym. A Trainer challenges Platinum to a battle, and Pearl attempts to give her advice when he senses that Platinum is going to have Piplup use Pound against her opponent. As soon as he does so, a voice speaks through a statue and tells Diamond and Pearl that they are not permitted to coach Trainers during a Gym challenge.
