Why won't this work??

[Tokito]

I am playing Pokemon platinum and I've unlocked the mystery gift option butit still won't work, and I can't figure out why. Can anyone help me with this?

You need a second person to mystery gift. It will give the two people a new item.

I tried that and it still didn't work.

Were you able to battle/ trade with said person? If not then somethingmight be wrong with your ds.

The ds is fine since we were able to battle/trade with ech other.

[SuperSimon]

Have you already mystery gifted with the person?

[Tokito]

Nope.

That's because that isn't what Mystery Gift is for... The 'Get from friend' option only works if one of the two (or more) people have gone to an event and received something from the event, and the item is able to be transfered to another game.

Get From Friend

The first function is for you to get something from a Friend. Some Wonder Cards which you download through Mystery Gift will have the ability of being copied and sent over to any friends over the DS's wireless features. This is sent by going into the Wonder Card option. If it has the Send option you will be notified and thus the Wonder Card is sent to your friend

Okay, now I am not confused anymore. Thanks.
