Do you have to beat the Elite Four for you to get it? If so, no. I went back to Pearl when I got stuck at Eterna with Prinplup (I didn't wanna copy Pearl by getting Chimmy... bad idea).
I don't think you have to beat it to get the actual card, but I know you have to beat the E4 to get Darkrai. All you have to do is unlock Mystery Gift to get the card.
And yeah, I started over in my Platinum, but that was over a month ago or so. I'm at the part before you fight Fantina now. I'm training my Pokemon for right now and head back to Jubilife to unlock Mystery Gift so I can get the card.
Bulbapedia said:In order to obtain Darkrai, players must have unlocked the National Pokédex in their Platinum game.
I unlocked Mystery Gift back at the Secret Key event. But that was before we got Wi-Fi T_T.
I hate staying back a grade. I have to because I failed about 3 classes. Has anyone stayed back a grade?

CHOCOLATE RULEZ!
Soft cookies with blue frosting and rainbow sprinkles are tasty! They're hid under the cereal cabnet
Watermax, I failed for not studying, not doing homework, and failing some classes that I'm not good at.
