Member Card in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond

While Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl (Pokemon BDSP for short) has been a pretty faithful remake of the original Nintendo DS games from 2006, it does have a number of changes. These do a good job of differentiating it from the originals and keeping its gameplay feel fresh and exciting. However, these changes sometime leave players that have played through the first games confused over whether or not certain things are also present in the remakes or not. The Member Card is one such item. If you are one of the players that have played Pokemon Diamond and Pearl on the Nintendo DS, then you probably remember this item and what it does. But is it present in Pokemon BDSP, too? Our Member Card in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond guide is here to answer that very question.

How to Get Member Card in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

For those players that do not know what the Member Card is – it is an item that you use to unlock a house in Canalave City. Inside, you can then find and battle Darkrai. This Mythic Pokemon is one half of the so-called Lunar Duo, the second half being Cresselia. When Pokemon BDSP was first released, there wasn’t a way for you to get this item. But this has changed, and you will be able to get it via the Mystery Gift function in the game from April 1st until May 1st, 2022.

Once you get the Member Card, this will then open up the Newmoon Island. Darkrai will be available on that island, so come prepared to battle and catch it there. While this probably won’t be the only way to get it, there’s no guarantee that the Member Card will return anytime soon, so be sure to get it via the Mystery Gift while you can!
