not sure if i should post this here, but i just bought a used diamond from gamestop, saw it had saved data so i decided to check it out, it looks to have one or even a few event pokemon but idk how to tell if they are or not can anyone help me out? i can list em if that would help
Check the PC Event List and compare the details of your Pokemon with the events on the list. Some even have photos to compare with. If they don't match up then they are more than likely hacks.

this was put up sat im susprised it hasnt but put up yet, but here is the moveset for TRU dragonite coming out in a couple weeks

Nintendo Power has announced the moveset for the special Dragonite available for download at Toys R Us next month. It is the same Dragonite given out in Japan for the "Saikyou" (Strongest) events, and was made available to Japanese players from the middle of January to the middle of February. The magazine also stated that a special Pokemon Ranger: Shadow of Almia poster will be given out at the Toys R Us event as well. Thanks go to DrewCardUniverse for the news!

Dragonite @ Yache Berry (reduces Ice-type damage)
Level 50
~ Outrage (not normally learned until LV.64)
~ Dragon Dance (not normally learned until LV.53)
~ Thunderbolt
~ Draco Meteor

Since Japan has access to a level 50 Dragonite, it would seem Nintendo of America wanted the same for us as well. Perhaps the Japanese will be allowed to use Dragonite for their Video Game Showdown qualifiers, and we will be allowed too? Why else would we get this specific Pokemon?
I'd also like to re-post this tid-bit I placed into the previous Dragonite news story, since I have not seen many people discuss it. Some of our forum members who were at Worlds heard this information stated by POP officials as well:
The [Pokemon.com] article mentions the Dragonite will be able to be used in "official tournaments," since it fits in the level 50 category now. This seems like a good opportunity to say that at Worlds, I heard from POP officials that America would be having several Pokemon Video Game Showdowns during this current tournament season. I don't remember for sure how many they were planning to hold, but I think they said seven to nine throughout the United States (in different states, obviously). It was also said that the Video Game Showdowns would take place internationally this time too. I'm not sure when this will be revealed to the public, but it looks like Dragonite might be a precursor to an official announcement.

Japan always has to get the same events as the US. I guess it's so it won't "upset the natural balance" of Japanese events.
It's actually the other way around. America mainly gets its events from Japan. So when the US decides to have an event, they'll pretty much copy the japanese version of the event. The only instance that I can think of that breaks this cycle is the WORLD08 Lucario, which didn't have a Japanese counterpart.

Huh, a Dragonite event. Good to know, but I thought Toys 'R Us was in pretty bad shape in the states. Well, I think 2 stores near me have shut down. The 3rd store is too far, which means I might actually miss an event, oh noes. It doesn't really matter though. Dragonite isn't special and I still haven't picked up my Darkrai or Deoxys from the dude. u.u

Btw.. Shiny Milotic event? c: *prepares to attack a kid getting one*

I'm going to the Australian Alamos Darkrai event,but,can I get more than 1?

-Neku
Only one per cartridge. So unless you have more than one Diamond or Pearl, you can only get one Darkrai.

People have used another method to get more than one though. It requires 2 D/P's (preferably one of them is one you don't care about) and 2 DS's. First, get the Pokedex and make your way through the game until you have unlocked Mystery Gift and obtain the Darkrai on the useless cartridge. Then, beat your way through the 1st gym (I think that's the requirement to trade) and trade the Darkrai onto your good cartridge. Then reset your useless cartridge and repeat the process. It's a bit time consuming but at least you get more than one Darkrai.
