I heard this one isn't actually getting released in theaters. I heard it's straight to DVD, at which point there's a decent chance it'll be given away at that release date. Here's hoping, anyway.

If it is released on DVD then wont the code get away or something for obtaining Darkrai?
Besides I think DVD would be better because they already put it on TV and theres no point in putting it in theaters because its just pointless.

When the DVD comes out in America is likely when we'll get Darkrai. Trust me- when Darkrai is released, we'll have plenty of warning. We had a month's warning for the release of Manaphy, I remember, so expect the same for Darkrai.
Also, I remember a Pokemon.com mailbag question asking if Darkrai would come to theatres. According to Pokemon.com, it wouldn't.

It WON'T
They wouldn't freely air it on TV, if they wanted money out of it.

That was another part of my theory. If they were going to make money off of it, they wouldn't put it somewhere that everyone could see it without paying. But they've already said when it's coming out on DVD, so I bet that's when they're giving out Darkrai. I can't wait. I love dark types.

The kids on Cartoon Network don't know what they're talking about...so, no. It isn't coming to theatres [unfotrunately]. And Pokemon.com has confirmed it. It's going to be released on DVD sometime in May, so hopefully we can get Darkrai then!

Do you have to be on wi-fi to get it?
I don't have 24/7 wi-fi access like some people:disappoin

Well, if it's going to be a mystery gift, then yes, you'd have to be connected to wifi to get it. But it'd be likely to be a full day in which you could get it, so you'd have time to get somewhere with wifi. McDonald's has free nintendo wifi. I used to go there when I didn't have wifi. Just get fries or a drink or something and sit there looking like a loser playing pokemon in McDonald's for the free wifi. It's not as bad as it sounds.

I don't mind at all.
But wouldn't I have to change the wifi settings? how do I know which settings Mcdonalds has?

No worries, you basically just walk in and you're connected. I don't believe you even have to look for the signal, if I recall correctly. I'm not super technologically inclined, and it wasn't hard for me. You'll be fine.

Thanks for the info!
I'll be sure to just walk to my Mcdonalds down the street while people are still at school. (nobody will see me, just old people and moms)

Hahaha, soccer moms in the midday McDonald's. Happy memories. At least now if they give out Darkrai as a mystery gift, you'll have a fighting chance.

id say the same thing as everybody else. they will give a code in the dvd box when it is release in may 2008

You don't need a code for Mystery Gift, I'm pretty sure. Whenever the movie has sales, I'm sure the event will be released.

Did they release Manaphy over Wi-Fi when the movie came out last year? No. So why in the world do you people think Darkrai will be any different? Geez......
Darkrai is going to be released in Toys-R-Us as a one-day event, just like Manaphy was. As for when, I believe somebody already said April...?

hey does any1 remeber when the Darkrai site first launched and there was that little bit of text on the DS page that wasnt supposed to be there... Well, it tipped a lot of people off to believe it would be a Nintendo Wifi Mystery Gift. Just sayin

I kind of think they'd have to go with releasing Darkrai via mystery gift. Not because of the movie, but because that's how they did it in Japan. Why break the trend?

well mystery gift really is the only way they would go upon releasing darkrai. there is mystery gift friend, wireless, and wifi. unless you mean trading? (similar to the mystry mew event).
but i think darkrai will be release with mystery gift wireless. they released TRU manaphy when its dvd came out. also, darkrai was released at the movie theatre in japan through wireless so im gonna assume the same will be for us.

Actully you need to cheat to get the great darkness pokemon Darkrai.
You need the gameShark to help you with this problem.

Well it was released in Japan, so either they are going to release it during the next movie in America or maybe in the Pokemon Center in New York

Since they have shown darkrai on tv, they probably will bring it in a specail event even though most people like me already have it.
