Toys R Us Announces Darkrai Days For Pokemaniacs
It's been a year since Nintendo released Pokemon Diamond and Pearl for the Nintendo DS, and for those of you still obsessed with catching them all, Nintendo and Toys R Us are about help you get one step closer. On Saturday May 31 and Sunday June 1, bring your DS to a Toys R Us and the game will let you nab an Inn key which is necessary to find the legendary pokemon Darkrai in the game.
The distribution promotes the newest Pokemon movie DVD, The Rise of Darkrai, but (thankfully) you don't have to buy anything to get the key. Last September, Toys R Us had a similar promotion for a different pokemon, although this time it seems they're extending the hours (Noon to 4pm) and spreading it out over a weekend, which seems like a good idea. Apparently there are a still a few more legendaries left to dole out, which I suppose lets them extend the life of the game and helps promote their new product. Pokefans, will you be there, or have you already succumbed to some nefarious dealings in order to grab these elusive beasts?

Other stuff like this: darkrai, diamond and pearl, free, pokemon, promotion, toys r us
as much as I hate to admit it, I use an action replay to get pokemon that you can't get in the game. However I will go to this so I can get a legit one.
Nefarious dealings all the way.
whooo! :D
I am actually pumped about this. I can't believe I am admitting this, but yeah, totally pumped and clearing my schedule...
I don't know if this makes me happy, or a little sad how excited I am.
It's about time! I was so jealous that the Japanese people got it wayyyyyyy back in theatres, and finally I get to get a Darkrai.
I had hoped that with the new Global Trade System Nintendo was going to stop doing events exclusively in America and Japan.
