Pokemon Platinum Darkrai; The Member's Card event

Today. August 3rd, marks the first day that the Member Card can be downloaded onto a Pokemon Platinum Game in America and Europe via WiFi. This event will last until September 13th and will allow you to catch a level 50 Darkria. This topic is mainly to announce its presence to people, it can also be used to talk about the event in other countries or other upcoming events.

This next part is for the people who have never done something like this:
First go to a Pokemart and talk to the man-in-green who is normally not there, in this case he will give you the Member's Card. This card will let you open the locked house in Canalave. In that room you will fall asleep and then wake up and find your self on New Moon Island, home of Darkria.
Be prepared for a fight, and consider a Pokemon that can not fall asleep (that has the ability Insomnia), or a Pokemon with Mold Breaker. The best would be an Ariados or a Pinser (Bug is good aqainst Dark).
It will know Hypnosis and Nightmare so a pokemon that does not sleep is good here. These with its ability to reduce a sleeping foes HP can be very dangerous. The only attack that can do damage (when the foe is awake) is Faint Attack. Its final move is Double Team, so consider an attack that is sure to hit (Shock Wave is one that comes in TM form).

NOTE: This is only for people with a Pokemon Platinum not Diamond and Pearl. I am almost certain that you need to have beaten the Elite Four to catch Darkrai, but you do not need to have to be able to download it.

P.S. Good Luck with trying to catch this rare Pokemon, Its Ability is one-of-a-kind and its own attack, Dark Void, will put both opponents to sleep in a double battle (80% accuracy).

Did the event through AR on Pearl already. Also did the event on Ranger 2. But if I find my DS I'll do it.

I think you can do it only at night. I recieved the Member's Card and tried to open the door, but nothing happened that was different from any other time that I had tried to open the door. The fact that it might have to be done at night is the only possible explaination.

Well, the only probable one that is. Nintendo could be VERY mean and make you need to do it on the night of a new moon. They could also be mean and have you run in circles for a hour first.

I haven't tried to catch it yet. I may try tonight, I could also wait until tomorrow and test your (Gigasteel42's) theory. I may not use my own strategy, I have a few Pokemon to fight it with, but probably the most fit is my Torterra at Lv. 65 (I have not gone to stark mountain yet in case you were wondering).

I do not want to catch it eather, I just want to have it! I liked the Regigigas event, a free level 100 Regigigas! You don't even need to catch it.

O.K. I don't think you can only catch Darkrai at night. You need to have completed the Natl. Pokedex first, which is something I haven't done. By the way, does anybody have a Feebas on them? I need one really bad. It is getting boring just walking around in Platinum.

You need to have completed the National Pokedex!?!? Do you maybe mean Sinnoh?
You could try the GTS for a Feebas. If you have not seen one... You have probably seen one. (If not, go through the story a bit until you can battle a trainer on Route 222, the road before Sunyshore.)
I would check to see If there are even any Feebas on the GTS, but It would be no help because I could not trade one to you.
