The '''Member Card''' (Japanese: '''メンバーズカード''' ''Member's Card'') is a [[Key Item|Key]] [[event item]] available in {{game|Platinum}}. It is only obtainable through a [[Nintendo Event]]; while it is in the code for {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, it was never distributed for them. The player must have activated [[Mystery Gift]] in order to receive the gift via Wi-Fi. It is the second of the four [[event item]]s in the Sinnoh-based games, being preceded by the {{OBP|Secret Key|Generation IV}} and followed by [[Oak's Letter]].

The Member Card grants the {{player}} access to the Harbor Inn in [[Canalave City]]. Shortly after, the player will meet a strange old man, have a nightmare, and travel to [[Newmoon Island]], where {{p|Darkrai}} can be obtained. If {{p|Darkrai}} is obtained, a booming voice will talk to the player and the player will wake up from their nightmare with {{p|Darkrai}} either in their [[party]] or in the [[PC]]. The player can rebattle {{p|Darkrai}} again, if fled from or fainted.

Before the player may enter the Harbor Inn using the Member Card, the player must first meet {{p|Cresselia}}, obtain the [[Lunar Wing]], and use it to dispel the nightmares Darkrai inflicts on [[Eldritch]]'s son.

* Strangely, the door will not open when used after defeating or capturing Darkrai. This is most likely due to the fact that there is no mirage created by Darkrai to "open" the door.
* The Member Card opening the door of an inn is somewhat similar to the way some hotels today use key cards for room access.
