Game Freak seems to agree because they’ve completely phased them out of the past two generations of games. Does this mean HMs are back? The original Diamond and Pearl had a whopping eight HMs to collect, and that often meant swapping Pokémon in and out of your party to progress. The most recent trailer for Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl confirmed the return of two overworld obstacles: cut trees and rock climbing walls. Here are five big questions about the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl remakes! How do HMs work? In the meantime, the new trailer gave us plenty to speculate about. Past Pokémon games, including remakes, got some big last-minute reveals, and I’m hoping we’ll see that again.

That said, we’ve still seen relatively little of the games, and we’re less than three months away from launch. The new trailer revealed the Grand Underground, customization via Style Shops, graphical improvements, and more. During the recent Pokémon Presents, we finally got another look at the Diamond and Pearl remakes.
