The Dark-type Pokemon Darkrai first showed up via a special distribution to Pokemon Diamond Version and Pokemon Pearl Version. Now the mysterious Darkrai can be yours when you visit a new location, Newmoon Island! You'll need to use the Member Card- an item not available through normal gameplay. You can't catch Darkrai any other way in Pokemon Platinum Version, so be sure to get the Member card while it's available for this limited time!
The Member Card is available via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection August 3rd through September 13th.

Rotom has always been a mysterious Pokemon, and in Pokemon Platinum Version the Plasma Pokemon has the ability to change into five different forms! To access the room where Rotom can change forms, you’ll need to use an item not available through normal gameplay- the Secret Key!
The Secret Key opens a secret room in Eterna City where you can change Rotom’s form. This is the only way you can change Rotom’s form, and the Secret Key is available only for a limited time!
The Secret Key is available via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection April 20th through May 12th, and at participating Toys”R”Us locations in the U.S., Canada, and Puerto Rico April 19th through April 26th.

Shaymin, the 492nd Pokemon, is the newest mysterious Pokemon. Like Manaphy and Darkrai before it, Shaymin does not appear in normal gameplay in Pokemon Diamond Version and Pokemon Pearl Version.

Visit a participating Toys”R”Us store from February 8th to February 14th to receive the mysterious Pokemon Shaymin. Your new Shaymin will be in its Land Forme in your Pokemon Diamond Version and Pokemon Pearl Version games, but soon you can trade it to the newest Pokemon game, Pokemon Platinum Version, for an added surprise!
Step 1
Trade your Shaymin into a copy of Pokemon Platinum Version, available March 22nd, 2009.
Step 2
Play through the game and get the Gracidea in Floaroma Town. You’re only given the Gracidea if the Shaymin you received is in your party!
Step 3

Visit any Toys"R"Us store from 12pm to 4pm on November 8th and November 9th to receive an amazing Level 50 Dragonite. What makes this Dragonite so special? Plenty! Dragonair doesn't normally evolve into Dragonite until Level 55, so having a Level 50 Dragonite is extremely rare. Since you can get this Dragonite at Level 50, it will be able to enter official tournaments that are limited to Level 50 Pokemon.
On top of that, Dragonite comes equipped with an amazing arsenal of moves, some of which normally can't be learned until after Level 50! Stayed tuned to Pokemon.com for more information on this rare and exciting opportunity!
Available at all Toys"R"Us stores in the US and Puerto Rico from noon to 4pm on November 8th & November 9th.
The newest Nintendo Power has some additional information about this Pokemon event:
...The exceptional Dragonite also comes equipped with the Yache Berry Hold Item that halves the damage inflicted by super-effective Ice-type moves used against Dragonite.
As an additional bonus, a Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia poster will also be handed out during the event.
