While we appreciate outside links, we're especially looking for original ideas or questions no matter how insane they are. *Counting Deoxys only once and discounting Arceus and Wobbuffet entirely.This is a place to discuss all "out of the ordinary" Pokemon lore related possibilities and other theories regarding the Pokemon world. The necessity of this move is further increased by the fact that the majority of Ubers are weak to Dark Attacks (7 out of 14*). Backed by Calm Mind or simply off of Darkrai's initial Special Attack, it does plenty of damage. Future Calm Minds will depend on the situation, but Darkrai has respectable Special Defence and against some of the weaker Special Attackers, several Calm Minds can be used.ĭark Pulse is Darkrai's best STAB move. Since it's standard practice to switch after being put to sleep (for obvious reasons), a Calm Mind can be set-up with relative ease. It's 90% accurate and backed by a Base 125 Speed stat, making it difficult for an opponent to avoid being put to sleep. Although the damage is minor, it negates the effects of Leftovers and it can be troublesome for defensive Pokémon, particularly Pokémon who rely on the rest-Sleep Talk combination.ĭark Void is Darkrai's primary move. It deals 1/8 th damage to any sleeping Pokémon that Darkrai is facing. ![]() The fact that its STAB is super-effective against a large number of Ubers is an additional bonus to its sweeping capabilities.īad Dreams: teams nicely with Dark Void. Its offensive stats may seem average when compared against its fellow Ubers, but Base 125 Speed is difficult to outrun and Base 135 Special Attack can hurt.

Generally, the main threat from Darkrai will be the effect of Dark Void. It can take a hit but it won't be walling opponents. When placed against its fellow Ubers, it won't shine, but Base 90 in each Defence is satisfactory and Base 70 HP is acceptable. Its physical attack isn't as impressive but it possesses Swords Dance and usable physical move-pool.ĭefensively, Darkrai is tolerable. It possesses several disruptive moves, including additional status attacks, Taunt and Haze. Although Dark Void is pretty much a necessity on Darkrai, it has an impressive Base 135 Special Attack stat and boasts a versatile Special move-pool (which can be boosted further by Calm Mind). This combined with Darkrai's incredible Speed stat would be highly imbalanced in the standard environment, and even in the Uber environment it's difficult to deal with.ĭarkrai isn't a one-trick pony though. The primary reason for being moved to the Uber environment is Dark Void, a 90% accurate sleep-inducing move. ![]() Despite having Base Stats equal to the likes of Salamence and Tyranitar, who are accepted in the Standard competitive environment, Darkrai has been boosted to the status of an Uber (alongside Dialga, Mewtwo and co.). ![]() Folklore has it that on moonless nights, this Pokémon will make people see horrific nightmares.ĭarkrai, one of the many new legends of the fourth generation (and also one of several that's difficult to obtain).
