But, until that happens, feel free to check out our list of valuable Pokemon Diamond action replay codes (click here) or the unlockables, glitches and one Easter Egg we have prepared for you.
UNLOCKABLES

Diamond Dust Set the system date to January 12th and Fly up to Snowpoint City. Instead of the normal snow you will see Diamond Dust "snow".
EASTER EGGS
Birthday greeting Set the system date to the birthday registered in the settings. Talk to Professor Rowan's assistant after defeating the Elite Four and they will wish you a happy birthday.
GLITCHES
Duplicate items In order to make this glitch happen, you must have a Pokemon that knows "Thief" and a Ditto. You will have to enter a double battle with a Ditto without an item and a Pokemon holding the item you want to duplicate. Make Ditto transform into the Pokemon holding the item. Then, switch the Pokemon holding the item with the Pokemon that knows Thief. Use Thief on Ditto. You will only have to win the battle now and the thief Pokemon will have a duplicate of the item you used in the battle.
Raining in Solaceon Town Go to Solaceon Town, then get on the bike and ride it at maximum speed to route 210. Go to the area where it rains. Enter a bit in it, then ride back into Solaceon Town - it will look like it is raining.
Traps and Spheres duplication Two people are required for this trick to happen. When you're underground, get some traps or spheres, then get to the surface and save the game. Go back down and set your trap anywhere. Set the other person to COM and take the trap or sphere from the ground. Turn your game off but leave the other person's game on. Save the other person's game. Both characters should now have the same trap or sphere.
