Newmoon Island in Pokémon Platinum
Newmoon Island

Newmoon Island is the dark twin of Fullmoon Island and Darkrai's hiding place, and it can only be reached with the Member Card, an item given out at official Nintendo events. With the card, after the Hall of Fame and National Pokédex, you sleep at the Harbor Inn in Canalave City and hear a voice telling Darkrai to go to Newmoon Island. A sailor then takes you there, and Darkrai waits in the forest at level 50.
