* When the player uses his or her radar while in [[the Underground]], it takes two seconds before another radar signal can be used. In Diamond and Pearl, it only took one second.

* The Lustrous and Adamant Orbs are no longer found on the [[Spear Pillar]] as in Diamond and Pearl, instead they must be found in a cave somewhere in the snowfields of [[Mt. Coronet]] which requires {{m|Waterfall}}. To be able to catch Dialga and Palkia, the player must have obtained the items in that cave and must have faced Giratina, whether it was caught or not. Then the player can go up [[Mt. Coronet]] to where Giratina took the player and Cyrus in to the [[Distortion World]].

* If a {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]] faints, then it will reappear after defeating the {{pkmn|Champion}}.
* If the player defeats or flees from a stationary {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]], it reappears after the player next enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. If the player defeats a [[roaming Pokémon]], it will reappear only after the player has re-triggered the event which caused it to start roaming; for example, the player must talk to [[Professor Oak]] to cause a [[Legendary birds|Legendary bird]] to resume roaming. If the player flees from or defeats [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Giratina|Origin Forme]] {{p|Giratina}} in the [[Distortion World]], it will reappear in [[Turnback Cave]] in its Altered Forme, where it behaves in the same way as all other stationary Legendary Pokémon.
* The level progression of the average opponent's Pokémon has been increased. An example of this is that in Diamond and Pearl, Barry's starter Pokémon in the battle at Pastoria City is at level 28. In Platinum, it is at level 36. Almost every Trainer's roster in the game has had their levels increased by at least one. However, the Elite Four's Pokémon have been lowered by four levels the first time the player faces them.

* In locations where certain unevolved Pokémon can be found (like {{p|Numel}} on {{rt|227|Sinnoh}} and [[Stark Mountain]]), they are near the levels of the rest of the Pokémon in the area, whereas in Diamond and Pearl they were usually in the high 10s or low 20s.
