Though Dark Pokémon did not appear in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion, Pokémon belonging to [[Team Aqua]] or [[Team Magma]] utilized the new game mechanic of dual-types, in which many evolved and legendary Pokémon displayed a Darkness dual type to further emphasise their allegiance with a [[villainous team]]. This also essentially rejected the difference between Dark Pokémon and Darkness-type Pokémon as displayed in Neo Destiny. This would remain for subsequent releases. | Though Dark Pokémon did not appear in the {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}} expansion, Pokémon belonging to [[Team Aqua]] or [[Team Magma]] utilized the new game mechanic of dual-types, in which many evolved and legendary Pokémon displayed a Darkness dual type to further emphasise their allegiance with a [[villainous team]].

Dark Celebi, featured in {{TCG|EX Hidden Legends}} was the first card in the EX Series to include "Dark" in its name, and was included in the set likely due to its close ties with ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'', in which Team Rocket member [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] captures a {{p|Celebi}} using a [[Dark Ball]] and uses it to create chaos. | Dark Celebi, featured in {{TCG|EX Hidden Legends}} was the first card in the EX Series to include "Dark" in its name, and was included in the set likely due to its close ties with ''[[M04|Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]'', in which Team Rocket member [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] captures a {{p|Celebi}} using a [[Dark Ball]] and uses it to create chaos. | ||
The latest appearance of Dark Pokémon was in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion, in which all Dark Pokémon are dual Darkness types (with the exception of those that are normally Colorless) and all Pokémon belonging to Team Rocket are purely Darkness types. | The latest appearance of Dark Pokémon was in the {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} expansion, in which all Dark Pokémon are dual Darkness types (with the exception of those that are normally Colorless) and all Pokémon belonging to Team Rocket are purely Darkness types. | ||
