I just want a Brawl character to utilize some awesome supernatural powers and have the special effects to tag along. Looks like Darkrai can bring that to the table.

Darkrai? Ugh? No? Sorry, im just not a fan of a lot of the new pokemon. :ohwell: sorry for the negativity. Then again, Darkrai is pretty cool...and could make a potentially good character, so I suppose.

How bout a Darkrai moveset? I know what some people say about that ANYTHING can have a moveset, but it takes a truly amazing character to support one. Darkrai is one of them.

A: Darkrai scratches the foe with both claws.

A>: A sideswipe with Darkrai's claws.

AV: Darkrai spins and his feet(?) give off dark energy, tripping close by foes.

Dash A: He holds his palms out and releases evil energy. Multi hit capable.

Smash A>: A strong downward swipe with both claws. Slow, but powerful.

Smash AV: Darkrai summons black magic to create a small vacuum to damage foes, like Mew2's Smash A^.

Smash A^: Darkrai's hair(?) starts flailing. Good combo keeper.

Aerial A: Releases some dark energy frim his palm.

Aerial AV: A dive head first.

Aerial A^: A flipkick.

Aerial A>: A slash that leaves behind dark energy.

Aerial A<: Darkrai spins with claws outstretched.

Grab A: Darkrai squeezes foe's throat with gripping hand.

Grab >: Fires off a Will O Wisp that pushes and burns the opponent back.

Grab <: Darkrai uses Night Shade to flip the opponent over him backwards.

Grab V: Places palms on foe's head and uses Nightmare, slamming the foe.

Grab ^: Lifts opponent above Darkrai's head, and launches using Thunder.

Taunt: Darkrai spins and roars.

B: Focus Punch- Chargeable punch that can do massive damage.

B^: Shadow Claw- Uses a rising Shadow Claw.

BV: Payback- A countermove. More powerful attack=More damage dealt.

B>: Hypnosis- Puts opponent to sleep.

FS: Dark Void- Enters a special state called Void Mode.

Whenever a foe falls asleep, their health is drained by Darkrai even when his health is full until the foe wakes up. The initial activation puts all three foes to sleep, but they wake up. The backround then has darkness over it instead of the norm. Every time afterwards activation does Darkrai put an enemy to sleep, he drains more health. The draining is automatic and requires no contact. Hypnosis + this = pwnage.
+1 rep for both of you.
That's some good **** right there

I think Lucario vs. Darkrai could go either way, though.

Waiting for you to slip up.
Gee... Darkrai would kick Pokemon Mewtwo AND Melee Mewtwo arse anyday.



Lucario versus Darkrai... hmm...

Who are YOU for? I'm for Darkrai, but it seems since Lucario has a movie, it is null. However, a movie with Darkrai was I think released in Japan, and since Sakurai is obviously Japanese, he would be likely to add Darkrai as well as Lucario. However, from the looks of it, only one may enter...

WHO WILL IT BE?!?!?!?!?!?!

If aura sphere is the same as his barrier then it should definetly be one of Mewtwo's moves in Brawl, imo it should replace confusion
Aura sphere looks like a light version of Mewtwo's shadow ball...


Which is a move that originated FROM Mewtwo...though he never learns it...Strangely


...except with TM

I always though Shadow ball was originally Gengar's move since I don't recall seeing Mewtwo ever using it I might have missed it

Roar of Time is useless though. Spacial Rend is much better.

And Shadow Ball is a Gengar technique, but Mewtwo uses it in the First Movie.
That's what I mean...that was the first time I saw it used, since it wasn't in the first game

Poor Deoxys...

Would've been ten times better than Mewtwo if Sakurai had't thrown him away like that...

Hyper Beam is Rayquaza's move!

At least Deoxys stole it... hehehehehe...
Hyperbeam is everyone's move. :p

And Deoxys is hideous. Sorry, Deoxys fans, I really do feel your pain, but I'm not at all upset about it getting pokeball'd. I can't have something like that uglying up my roster.

Mewtwo, buffed or otherwise, for Brawl.

...though the only pokemon that can truly unleash Hyper Beam to it's fullest potentiel is Porygon-Z

Of course.

I actually have no idea if you're kidding because you're pushing for Porygon-Z or if you're serious. Regardless, you're right. I decided.

Well Porygon Z gets STAB and has a great special attack. so i think he is not kidding.
Indeed. STAB for Hyperbeam is a rare thing (since most normal types played around tend to be physical attackers or some kind of supporter. Specialists are rare in the normal type), which puts the beam at 225 power... shot by a guy with 135 base SP Atk (AKA REALLY high) who, due to ability, can get even higher (if you chose adaptability as his ability, his hyperbeam goes to 450 power). That's a big ouch.

Z doesn't learn foresight but it does learn both shadow ball and dark pulse the latter of which I use on mine so ghosts aren't a problem. IMO porygon-z is the best non legendary special sweeper and even then he could compete in the Uber metagame hes just that good, but I use Mewtwo as my number 1 sweeper for Ubers cause I love him the most.
