Editing Platinum king jewel

The '''platinum king jewel''' (originally '''PlatKing''' / '''Platinum King''' due to display constraints) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series]]''. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest VII]]'', it is a [[gem slime]] variant that normally acts as the single largest source of experience in the games it appears in, above even that of the [[metal king slime]].

==Characteristics==
Platinum king jewels are silver-colored versions of gem slimes. Like their golden counterparts, platinum king jewels are shaped like gems and have tiara-esque crowns.

Like other metal monsters, platinum king jewels have absurd defense, speed, and a notorious habit for fleeing from battles. Unlike other metal monsters, however, the platinum king jewel also has high HP, normally around 200, which means landing a critical hit is the only possible way to defeat one short of an obscene amount of good luck.

==Appearances==
===''[[Dragon Quest IV]]''===
Absent from the original release, platinum king jewels appear as monsters in the enhanced remakes' bonus dungeon alongside several other monsters from ''Dragon Quest VII'', No a game that preceded the enhanced remakes.

===''[[Dragon Quest VII]]''===
Platinum king jewels (then '''PlatKing''') are first seen, being one of a few palette swaps of the Gem Slime. The heart of a platinum king jewel can also be obtained as a means of assuming that monster class.  Additionally, these monsters are extremely rare and have a high experience yield.
