	Member: Darkraiowns99 Darkrai IS AN UBER GUY:)HE IS MY MOST FAV POKEMON AND HE IS VERY GOOD. most people say he is cheap because of dark void but if people need to use dark void to win they are NOOBS. MY DARKRAI HAS.... 1)Dark Void 2)Dark Pulse 3)Spacail Rend 4)Roar of Time 23 May 09 15:44 -1
	Member: Strange...I thought i'd already made an entry for this uber. No matter... Okay, where do I begin? Oh Yeah! Now I remember why I never bothered to critique Darkrai: There's too little variance in his movepool, so I didn't think I could add anything to improve him. Let's face it: Darkrai's moveset has quickly hit the ceiling, it simply can't improve past Dark Pulse, Dark Void, Dream Eater, and Nightmare. Eventually he gets cheap and boring, but any amount of alteration to his moves just waters down the combo. And don't fret about Primeape, any sane person on wifi will have the rarer kind with Anger Point as the ability. But Darkrai is doomed if it wakes up. -jbjbh signing out, Happy Hacking;) 19 Apr 09 20:37 0
