Our friend went to the store last weekend and bought Pokemon Pearl for himself and Pokemon Diamond for me (and I reimbursed) -- then after I spent several hours playing, Evade went and bought his own copy of Pearl. Now we have 3 - AS, Jax, and Evade.
Update 9/15 - I now have all 8 badges in Pokemon Diamond and am trying to finish the Elite 4. It's a slow progress on BART as now I am also playing DD and Wedding Dash on the train as well.
