Dianyan and the other Gemnyans can only be obtained by scanning their respective Yo-kai Medal QR code at Piggleston Bank to obtain a Diamond Coin. Using it on the Crank-a-kai will award the Diamond Bell, which makes Dianyan appear.

In the anime[]

Dianyan's appearance in the anime.
Dianyan first appears in Yo-kai Top Ten where he's voted as the number one Yo-kai in the top ten list, much to Whisper's disappointment. His reaction to being the best Yo-kai impresses the audience as well as the others in the list.
Etymology[]
"Dianyan" is a portmanteau of diamond and nyan, onomatopoeia for the sound a cat makes.
Trivia[]
- Dianyan's first Shadowside Keystone has all of the Gemnyans in the SDCC Dianyan Set as it's Onechanside.
