Darkrai is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 90 HP. It features the ability Darkness Aura, which boosts its attacks by 20 damage if Cresselia is in play. The card’s primary attack, Hypnoblast, costs two Darkness and one Colorless energy, dealing 60 damage and potentially putting the Defending Pokémon to sleep. Darkrai has a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It resists Psychic-type attacks by 20 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks with double damage. The card belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series, released as part of the DP Black Star Promos set on May 1, 2007. Artist Wataru Kawahara designed the artwork, and the flavor text reflects Darkrai’s protective nature through nightmares. This Promo rarity card emphasizes its role in strategic gameplay through its unique interactions and effects.

To protect itself, it afflicts those around it with nightmares. However, it means no harm.
