From Dec. 1 through Jan. 15, Nintendo will again make available four of the six special missions obtainable in Pokémon Ranger Batonnage to coincide with the distribution of the Member Card to Platinum players during the same time. All of these can be obtained only via Wi-Fi and require players to meet in-game requirements first.

The Pokémon and Key Items

The missions in Pokémon Ranger Batonnage that will be made available again are those which involve a Manaphy egg, a Riolu that knows Aura Sphere, Darkrai and Shaymin. The availability of the missions involving Dialga and Palkia has not yet ended. While the other missions will not be available in any version of the game other than the Japanese one for the time being, the Manaphy and Riolu special missions can be downloaded from Nov. 10 to Jan. 31 in the American version and from Nov. 21 to Feb. 14 in the European versions.

In addition, the Secret Key will be distributed again from Jan. 16 to March 2. The Secret Key is the item which enables Platinum players to unlock the room in the Galactic Eterna Building where Rotom can switch between its forms.
