http://www.kotaku.com/5011407/darkrai-at-t...us-this-weekendApparently, Pokemon USA is hosting a Darkrai event. In all of the Toys-R-Us stores, you can go and, well, download Darkrai(or, rather, his event) from May 31 to June 1(that's two days- Saturday and Sunday) from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
This is likely to be your only chance.
I'm also guessing there's going to be something about the REAL Darkrai that hackers won't be able to imitate... at least I hope so. Otherwise, what's the point?
Anyways, you. Toys-R-Us. This weekend. Darkrai. Everyone very, very happy. Good? Yes.
(you can thank me later. XD)
Also, all you inactive people probably won't see this notice. I'd hate to be you right now.

GAH, I'd hate to be me right now - I'm active but I'm not from America. They better bring it out to Australia, the best thing we've had is Manaphy, and you can get that other (legal) ways anyway.

*drools*
It has Spacial Rend and Roar of Time. Count me in. :D (pity we can't nickname it though.)
...Never been that much of a Darky fan, but then, I do want to catch 'em all so what the hey.

Ooh! Too bad I don't have Diamond or Pearl. xD Actually, it saves me the pain of asking; I don't think my parents would take me to Toys-R-us just for this. xD I think I'll have enough of a conflict trying to get Platinum when it comes out...

Alright, I grabbed my Darkrai. Here's what's going on:
Darkrai:
Moves: Spatial Rend, Roar of Time, Hypnosis, Nightmare
Hold Item: Enigma Berry. This berry will heal you if you are hit with a super effective attack. Don't bother leaving it on Darkrai, unless you want to waste it without getting more...
Ability: Bad Dreams. Reduces a sleeping foe's HP.
OT: Alamos... reference to some Pokemon movie? I don't know. (edit: looked at it backwards, it spells Somala... which is some country? Doubt that means anything.)

My friend Shadow (not here) will get me darkrai via wonder card.
Avielus - June 3, 2008 03:53 AM (GMT)
What's Wonder Card? Having Darkrai, I believe that I should have a Wonder Card from the event... and I can use the card to give another Darkrai to my friend, you say?
Zephyr - June 3, 2008 09:08 PM (GMT)
No idea what the wonder card is... I think it has something to do with Mystery Gift, obviously, as I remember when I first activated Mystery Gift they said something about it.
Anyway, I got myself a Darkrai. :D Biked ten miles to get it, too (five there and five back. I coulda driven, but I have a planet to save.) Natures are unimportant to me, so I just sniffed at the Hardy nature.
Enigma Berry yeahhh :D I'm terrible with Berries and I probably won't ever plant it, but it's reassuring knowing that I have it, I guess.
@Avileus: The country you're thinking of is Somalia, and I don't think it has anything to do with Darkrai. At all. Probably Alamos is some guy in the 10th movie. (has anyone seen that? o_O) Still, I can't help thinking REMEMBER THE ALAMOS!
Avielus - June 3, 2008 11:14 PM (GMT)
Oh yeah, you're right, it is spelled Somalia. Then again, my name is spelled Avielus, so I guess we're even. :P (although that is a fake word, so it is excusable... heh)
whale55 - June 4, 2008 10:14 PM (GMT)
yes, my friend said that you can exchange the wonder cards to friends to get the events. First things first, we have to prove if it is true. If this is all false, tough luck for me and darkrai. I'd have to put up a shiny on serebii to get one, and i'd have to be a good shiny.

I got him too =D
He's awesome~ I'll have to plant that Enigma berry sometime.
(I'm alive! xD)
