Dont really get the Pokemon craze...

Gotta catch them all.........no, not really.

They are just really well made, fun games.

I played and beat Pokemon Diamond. What exactly have I missed out on with the later iterations?

Cant that question be applied to any long running franchise? What does the new Call of Duty, FIFA, Madden, Assassin's Creed, Mario Kart add? For the most part just refining/tweaking and adding a few new features.
