april 22, 2007 is the north american release date for the pokemon diamond and pearl games
however, that day is a sunday. it is not only highly unlikely that any stores will receive shipments of the games on that particular sunday, but also, games traditionally come out on tuesday or wednesday
the reason for that is actually to spread the first week's traffic over the course of the week. many people have off on sunday, so that would innundate the gamestores with customers.
i would expect stores to have it on monday or tuesday afternoons, 4/23 and 4/24
also, you can go into gamestores and pre-order the games, generally by paying as little as five dollar of the cost of the game ($34.99)

the continuation of the Pokemon RPG series on the Nintendo DS, will ship in North America on April 22nd. The two games expand the familiar adventure, battle, collect, and trade design that began on the Game Boy nearly a decade ago in Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue.
The game puts players in the role of either a boy or girl (player's choice) as they adventure through a new region, Sinnoh, trying to collect and train Pokemon on the way. New creatures will appear in these new games including Munchlax and Weavile. Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl will also enable players to bring in Pokemon they've collected in Game Boy Advance adventures via the lower cartridge slot of the Nintendo DS system.
The game has been available in Japan since September 2006, where millions of players have already been catching 'em all and battling not only over local wireless, but also over the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Surprisingly, Nintendo of America's news release omits any mention of the game's Internet capabilities. Instead, it only mentions that players "can play via local wireless with up to eight other trainers." Hopefully this was a simple oversight and not a clue that Internet play might be pulled out of the US version.
Nintendo plans on offering a premium to players who pre-order the game, awarding early birds with special Nintendo DS styluses branded with new Pokemon creatures. Details on the pre-order bonus will be coming in the new year.
We'll have more on Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl as we get closer to its April 22nd North American release.
