Origin

Darkrai is a Dark-type Pokémon debuting in Generation IV. It is focused around sleep and nightmares, and possesses the unique move Dark Void which can put the opponent to sleep and can affect all adjacent foes in double and triple battles, as well as the unique ability Bad Dreams, which deals constant damage to sleeping foes.

Trivia

  • A glitch with Darkrai allows players to get a large combo in Training mode: if Darkrai appears out of a Poké or Master Ball, when the opponent is trapped in its void and the player grabs them, they will get the credit for all damage taken by the opponent, with each hit counting as a new attack.
