To get Manaphy in Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl, you’ll need to have pre-ordered either game prior to its release.

If you pre-ordered your copy either physically or digitally, then you’ll be able to claim a Manaphy egg by using the Mystery Gift function in the game and selecting the online option to receive your gift.

You won’t be able to claim a Mystery Gift instantly after beginning your playthrough, so you’ll need to venture a little before you get the ability and can receive your Manaphy egg. Once it’s acquired, simply walk until the egg hatches, and then you’ll have received your Manaphy.
