Official US website announced Secret Key Event.

Also they've said that You will be able to pick up Your Secret Key over Mystery Gift using WiFi Connection during April 20th - May 12th.

I think that's another topic worth sticking so no one will miss it .

Sweet. Thanks for posting this here. Can't wait.

Lol, and I was about to send it over from my Japanese Platinum to my American (you can share the Japanese one, I'm not sure on the American).

I'll probably head to TRU so that I can get the little certificate.
I have Darkrai, Shaymin, Regigigas. Should have kept Manaphy's as opposed to using it. They ran out of Dragonites, and Gamestop didn't have for the Deoxys event.
Before anyone says "What certificate", I mean the $5 off coupon with the picture on it.

Finally!!

And do you get a rotom from Toys R Us? Or just a secret key?

Woo-hoo! I don't have to borrow my friend's Action Replay to get it! I'm going to tell all my pkmn-playing friends about it!

Just the Secret Key which You can use in Eterna City Galactic HQ to access room with a "tools" to change Rotom's forms.

Would it be possible to get a Rotom and change it's form, then put it in the PC, get another Rotom and change it to a different form, and what would happen if you went to a tool with many Rotoms in your party?

Total system failure?

You can do that, I'm pretty sure.

There was actually this important question on the bots - does it break the species clause, because they are technically different machines. The answer is yes, and it was called Rotom-A. In fact, you can't even have Rotom and a Rotom-A.

Keep in mind that you cannot trade rotom while it is inhabiting an appliance.

Why did I not notice this topic till now <.<;

Anyway its nice to see Nintendo finally using the wifi mystery gift option, even if its just an item. An item I want :O

i cant get a gd wi-fi connection no where no even a place compatible for wi fi

I'm sure McDonalds and Starbucks have free wifi.

I got impatient, and when I went to my friend's house 2 days ago I borrowed his AR so I got a non-legit secret key. The impatience was killing me, but I can't keep his forme in anyplace I battle like the BT and wifi, etc. Bummer.

Did you configure your DS's wi-fi settings? Not gonna connect if you don't set up the connection first.

Well, damn, this means I need to get my DS's wi-fi stuff working. Need to not forget about these things. I always forget to take advantage of these events.

At least you don't have to use Wi-Fi to get it the first few days, since you can go to a participating store, GS or TRU I'm not sure. Then set up Wi-Fi later. I used an AR, personally, like a week ago.

would somebody be willing to trade me a few times for the entries if I can't get platinum in time ( i know, i know, i should already have it)

Sure, I would. But, I don't believe how soon after the release the event is! I hope they have another one later for those of us (like abukakashi) who don't have it yet. I used an AR the week before the event though, just cus I felt like it.
