Here's how to add them to your collection!

As spotted by Serebii.net, Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl players will soon be able to add Arceus and Darkrai to their Pokemon collections.

According to the Pokemon website, in order to collect Arceus in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Pokemon Shining Pearl, players will first need to enter the Hall of Fame and receive the National Pokedex in Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl. They’ll also need to complete all of the main missions in Pokemon Legends: Arceus. The save file for Pokemon Legends: Arceus will need to be on the same Switch system as the save file for Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl.

Once these requirements have been fulfilled, players can travel to their room in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Pokemon Shining Pearl to collect the “Azure Flute” item. Once they collect the Azure Flute, players can travel to the Spear Pillar on Mount Coronet to battle and capture Arceus.

The Pokemon website said players will need to update Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl to the latest software version in order to receive the Azure Flute item. This update will be released on March 15, 2022 at 6 p.m. PT.

Meanwhile, in order to collect Darkrai in Pokemon Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl, players will need to first enter the Hall of Fame and receive the National Pokedex upgrade in Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl. From there, they can use the game’s Mystery Gift feature to receive the “Member Card” item. This item will allow them to travel to Newmoon Island, where they can find Darkrai.
