@@SonicUni1997 if we'll get mega evo's again then it possible that Darkrai could become Dark/Ghost and Cresselia Psychic/Fairy So they could be super effective on each other(Dark/Ghost→Psychic and Fairy/Psychic→Dark/Ghost) idk? Who knows?
The fact that he has legs he can extend willingly has been a thing since his inception, but was only ever shown twice before; in the movie, and in the terrible Pokedex book detailing Generation 4... Y'know, the one with hundreds of errors.
Yes Viz, please keep feeding us this Pokken content. Maybe now I won't have to fight against the same 5 people in casual battles. (Everyone should get this game by the way, it's super fun)
he's actually decent, he's a tactical character that can set up hazardous areas like a big circular area that when activated, becomes incredibly tall and chases the enemy really fast, it can create clones of itself to repeat an attack, and can create spatial tears that have a short range of attack when activated. Also, if you land a certain move with darkrai, then it will send you into a special mode that powers up your attacks and changes the way they work a bit.
@@Hyper_Drud Darkrai is one of my favorite characters to play but Mewtwo and Shadow mewtwo are more of my favorites because of their attack variety and quick output of attacks.

Is it just me or does its lower arms look a little chonkier than usual in Pokken? Also yeah it has legs it's pretty cool actually. And that very short clip reminded me of how good the Darkrai movie's soundtrack is so now I have to go listen to that again lol
Some Pokémon in pokken had tiny changes, it’s so they can animate them fighting and you know hitting better. Just look at blastoise limbs in this game that’s the biggest example
Ah yes, that Synergy gauge burst move he used was a callback to the game “PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond” and I love it! This is why Darkrai is and always will be my all time favorite Pokémon! #RespectDarkrai
One thing I never understood about Darkrai in Pokken Tournament is it's eye. For whatever reason, Darkrai is shown to have one eye, however in most, if not all, of it's artwork, has it's singular eye be located on the left side of it's face. But for some reason, whenever Darkrai is seen in the battlefields of Pokken Tournament, it's eye is located on the right side of it's face, despite the fact that it's character model, and even a few of Darkrai's intros have it's eye located on the left. Does this mean that Darkrai actually has two eyes, but just decided to go for the emo, hair over one eye look, or it actually has one eye, it's just the creators of this game made a mistake?
I feel like it's an animation thing. He actually has two eyes, his hair just covers one of them. Sometimes when he turns his head it switches to the opposite.
Anatomy has always been a difficult thing in Pokémon. If I had to guess, yes, it has bones, but obviously its abilities allow it to turn parts of its body or its entire body into shadow so in some case it _might as well_ not have them
Hell, he could have a partial skelletal structure and the legs are solidified shadow, or he is all some sort of hardended shadow energy, its fantasy land what do we know.
A friendly reminder to all As edgy and sinister Darkrai is portrayed they as a species are actually benevolent and usually don’t sow chaos or fear, in fact their ability to create nightmares is merely a defense mechanism
Maybe in the anime, in his first game appearance he puts a child in a coma to put him in an endless nightmare until you wake him up with the lunar wing
@@nautilus2612 And when you catch Darkrai via event in Platinum, there’s text from a mysterious voice saying that Darkrai never meant for this and actively seeks out Cresselia to where she can nullify his unconscious actions.

Welcome to people who dont unserztans why this dude have legs while he litterally does everything while flying I mean in legends arceus he sleep mid air bro u have legs why
Reminds me of a scene in a Pokémon mystery dungeon game, where a diglett discovers a cave. The cast asks how it knows and it says, “my feet are in an air pocket. … Why are you staring?” And everyone’s like, “mother of god, the aberration has FEET!!!1!”.

what the lucario doin? 🐶🐕
death
well, technically stuck in a dream of endless nightmares, but close enough
🐩
He’s just sleeping tis all
What d-
He's having a good night sleep, dreaming about living his best life with his trainer, good thing Darkrai came to undo the nightmares Cresselia made
I'm glad they're finally acknowledging the Darkrai movie, which is where its ability to produce legs debuted
That thing about Daerkrai's legs hadn't been seen before in a Mysterious dungeon game?
@@eex5016 Pokepark also showed Darkrai's legs

I have it
I have seen a lot of content for it lately....how are the online matches? Will it continue strong for some months?

Darkrai: literary rips Lucario's soul apart and yeets it into the shadow realm.
Narrator: Lucario fainted
this is pokken tournament, not pokemon stadium
Darkrai: You didn't think I had legs, did ya?
“I’m like gru but I’m the gru before gru. I’m egggru.”
"Ooowa! Get em!"
I love how he looks like an anime protagonist when he uses his legs, well technically he was one.
I like how darkrai's cry is just a man screaming
"They tried to put me on the cover of Vogue... But my ✨legs✨ we're too long~"
Darkrai, probably.
He's just standing there
Menacingly
Although it looks like a devil, I was surprised to find that his personality was not so bad.
Because the anime doesn’t want to make any Pokémon bad.

Y'all don't wanna accept that Darkrai walks like Mr Krabs
In his Pokédex he has a small dot footprint.
i like to think the shadow we see in the synergy move is Darkrai’s true form, and it keeps it contained within the “clothes”
Interesting headcanon 🤔
The ending clip
Ok but him with his legs out is adorable to me

as someone who played Pokepark 2, this is helluva of an evolution for his shadow hands
Lucario was sent to the Shadow Realm, what the fuck
oh my god the dark lord
Must have not kindled the first flame
Mans is built like a Persona protagonist with legs like those

@@aierisfrost8447 Well he seems to be made out shadows or physical nightmares and doesn't exactly have normal anatomy
Of course not.

tbf Darkrai is a literal shadow so it can probably do whatever it wishes with it's body
GOD OF DEATH DARKRAI
I remember the legs from the anime
Darkrai do be radiating that ‘Walk, walk, fashion baby’ vibes with its dem legs
They made Darkrai look so goddamn cool
someting interesting is that all the pokemon have "voce actors". darkrai's did a pretty good job.
They did my main garchomp dirty though
Bruh imagine that Darkai running towards you with glowing eyes in the dark. Also Darkrai having legs gives slenderman vibes
L E G S
Darkrai really just said "have you ever heared of Persona 4?"
"All begins and ends in Darkness"
dex entry:darkrai give kids nightmare
the nightmare:
one thing to note is that darkrai epik
and also DARKRAI HAS FUCKIN LEGS
If i could float and pull my legs into my own body I'd skip leg day to
A friendly reminder to all

Waiiiiit a minute it has legs WTF
Yes it does, it's shown in the movie
Yes
As an Animal Crossing Fan, he looks like a Pokemon version of Roscoe
I hate when Darkrai breaks my Gmod server textures
So darkrai has legs, just likes to fly.
Poor Lucario 😞
that last clip made my day lol
Whenever Darkrai walks instead of flying he makes the Mr. Krabs walking/running sound effect and you can't change my mind.
