The Pokémon.com mailbag has revealed that there are no plans to release the {{game|Platinum}} update for {{bp|My Pokémon Ranch}} to North American Wii systems.


This update, released in Japan on November 5, 2008, allowed the Platinum-exclusive forms for {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Rotom}} to be stored on My Pokémon Ranch, along with several other new features.
My Pokémon Ranch was released in early 2008, and is compatible with {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. Following the release of {{game|Platinum}} later that year, an update was released for Japanese players. The update, available for download in Japan since November 5, 2008, allowed the Platinum-exclusive formes for {{p|Giratina}}, {{p|Shaymin}}, and {{p|Rotom}} to be stored on My Pokémon Ranch, along with several other new features.


No word has come from Nintendo USA on the matter, so some do not consider this announcement official. However, an announcement was to be made if there was a change, according to the article.
