Secret Key

The Secret Key (Japanese: ひみつのカギ Secret Key) is a key item available in Pokémon Platinum. It is only obtainable through a Nintendo Event. It is shaped like Rotom's head, and the key's teeth look like the prongs of an electrical plug.

The Secret Key opens up Rotom's Room at the Galactic Eterna Building in Eterna City after it has been cleared. It contains five appliances necessary for Rotom to change between its six forms. Rowan comes in when the player changes Rotom's form for the first time, explaining its history.
