How to Get Darkrai in Pokedex in Platinum

In "Pokemon Platinum," Professor Rowan asks you to complete the Pokedex by catching every Pokemon. Your character starts a Pokedex entry for every new Pokemon she spots. Once she captures the Pokemon, your character will complete the Pokedex entry. Darkrai, the Pitch-black Pokemon, is the 491st Pokemon in the Pokedex. You need the Member's Card to legitimately add Darkrai to your Pokedex in "Pokemon Platinum." Since Nintendo no longer gives away the Member's Card, you need to connect with someone who downloaded the key item between August 3, 2009 and November 13, 2009.
