| Pokemon Platinum

The summer is a time to be out and about and Nintendo is encouraging pokémon trainers to do just with its travelling Pokémon Village Fête.

From July through to September, it's making its way around the UK, where as well as playing games such as Pokémon Diamond, Pokémon Pearl and Pokémon Platinum, and transfering your critters to play on the Wii version in Pokémon Battle Revolution, you can also see a screening of the 11th Pokémon movie – Pokémon: Giratina and the Sky Warrior.

Finally, if you bring along your DS and a copy of either Pokémon Diamond, Pokémon Pearl or Pokémon Platinum, you'll be able to unlock Regigigas. This in turn will enable you to catch the Regirock, Regice and Registeel pokémon.

Alternatively you can consult Nintendo's online guide to discover how to get Regigigas.
