Dark Pokémon did not appear in the game again until {{TCG|EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua}}, although they did not include "Dark" in their name. Instead, they utilized the new game mechanic of dual-types, in which many evolved and Legendary Pokémon displayed a Darkness dual type. This also essentially rejected the difference between Dark Pokémon and Darkness-type Pokémon as displayed in Neo Destiny. This would remain for subsequent releases.

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 ''[[Pokémon 4Ever]]'', in which Team Rocket member [[Vicious]] captures a {{p|Celebi}} using a [[Dark Ball]] and uses it to create chaos. Also brainwashed by Vicious' Dark Balls were his Scizor and Tyranitar, possibly meaning that they would similarly be considered a {{TCG ID|Neo Destiny|Dark Scizor|9}} and a {{TCG ID|Neo Destiny|Dark Tyranitar|11}}, previously released in {{TCG|Neo Destiny}}.

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.
