'''''Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl''''' is the tenth season of the [[Pokémon (TV series)|''Pokémon'']] anime series, and the first and titular season of '''''Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl''''', known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''''Pocket Monsters Diamond & Pearl'''''|ポケットモンスター ダイヤモンド&パール|Poketto Monsutā Daiyamondo & Pāru}}. It originally aired in Japan from September 28, 2006, to October 25, 2007, on [[TV Tokyo]], and in the United States from April 20, 2007, to February 1, 2008, on [[Cartoon Network]]. Covering the continuing adventures of series main protagonist [[Ash Ketchum]] and [[Pikachu]], and his best friend [[Brock (Pokémon)|Brock]], the two meet a new Pokémon Coordinator named Dawn, who travels with them through Sinnoh and enters Pokemon Contests.


__TOC__
The division between seasons of ''Pokémon'' is based on the English version openings of each episode, and may not reflect the actual production season. The English episode numbers are based on their first airing in the United States either in syndication on [[Cartoon Network]], or on the [[WB Television Network]]. (Other English-speaking nations largely followed either this order or the Japanese order.) Subsequent airings of the English version follow the original Japanese order, except in the case of [[Banned episodes of Pokémon|episodes which are no longer shown in English]]. While this series has not yet been aired in English, presumably it will have a new introduction.
