'''Darkrai''' (Japanese: '''ダークライ''' ''Darkrai'') is one of the featured [[Pokémon]] in ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]''. Its Japanese voice actor is 石坂浩二 ''Kōji Ishizaka'' and its English voice actor is [[Scott Williams]].


Darkai was at first mistook as an evil Pokémon for the first half of the movie since it apparently attacked everyone and gave them nightmares, as well as yelling phrases such as "Go away!" when instead referring to {{an|Palkia}}. It was only later that it was revealed that Darkrai was actually fighting off {{an|Palkia}} and {{an|Dialga}} from destroying [[Alamos Town]].
'''Darkrai''' (Japanese: '''ダークライ''' ''Darkrai'') is a major character in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''.
 
==In the movies==
[[File:Darkrai and Alice.png|thumb|250px|left|Darkrai and Alice]]
Darkrai was first seen in a garden in [[Alamos Town]]. When multiple pillars were knocked over, [[Baron Alberto]] accused Darkrai as being responsible for the damage. It mysteriously appeared out of the ground and told everyone to not come there. When Baron Alberto sent out {{p|Lickilicky}} to battle it, it dodged by becoming invisible, then used {{m|Dark Void}}, which ended up hitting {{Ash}}. In Ash's nightmare, it showed Ash a vision of Palkia and then brought {{AP|Pikachu}} into a vortex which Ash ended up in until he was awoken.
 
Darkrai appeared again briefly after Palkia caused a harsh distortion in space around Alamos Town. It also subtly told Palkia to leave the city. Baron Alberto, still thinking that Darkrai was evil, battled using Lickilicky. Darkrai, however, dodged and used {{m|Shock Wave}} on Lickilicky. Dawn also used {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}} to battle, but Darkrai dodged all the attacks. Soon, Darkrai unleashed several Dark Voids which put several people and Pokémon to {{status|sleep}}. Ash gave chase to Darkrai and attempted to attack it, but Darkrai instantly vanished. Pikachu attacked Darkrai's shadow while it was beneath the ground, which caused it to appear. Responding to the attack, Darkrai used {{m|Double Team}} to dodge {{m|Volt Tackle}}. When Ash told Darkrai that it should leave, it told him that it is staying. Baron Alberto, along with {{TRT}}, appeared on the scene. However, Darkrai used Dark Void on Lickilicky. With Darkrai's power, Baron Alberto morphed into a Lickilicky due to his wish to battle Darkrai. It was also revealed that many of the incapacitated Pokémon became ghostly mirages, which ran around revealing that they were being chased by something frightening in the dream world.

Darkrai was soon ganged up on by multiple {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, led by Baron Alberto. They all fired attacks, and Darkrai only defended. It survived all of the attacks, and used Dark Void on all of the Pokémon, telling them to not interfere. Baron Alberto, in the form of a Lickilicky, battled Darkrai and used {{m|Wrap}} on it, but Darkrai tossed him, along with Team Rocket, into a faraway tree. It appeared before the still invisible Palkia and charged at it, but was bounced back by Palkia's spatial shield. Darkrai fired a Dark Pulse, telling Palkia once again to leave the town. This awakened Palkia and it revealed itself, which led to Alamos Town being trapped within the Spatial World. Darkrai and Palkia fought each other in the trapped Alamos Town. It, along with Palkia, was struck by a {{m|Draco Meteor}} fired by Dialga.
 
When [[Alice]] was almost about to be caught in the fighting between Dialga and Palkia, Darkrai stepped into the fight and used Dark Pulse on the two. It attempted to use Dark Void on both Dialga and Palkia, telling them once more to leave the town, it was attacked by both. Alice appeared, along with Ash and {{ashfr}}, and apologized for misunderstanding it. Darkrai recognized Alice due to her similarity to [[Alicia]], who had saved it long ago. Darkrai left to continue fighting Dialga and Palkia.  


Darkrai had a special attachment to [[Alice]] as it believed she was [[Alicia]], Alice's grandmother, who helped Darkrai when it was injured a long time ago. Ever since then it had stayed in that garden. It also once saved Alice after she fell off a cliff. However there are [[AegisShipping|other beliefs]] regarding the reason for protection as well.

After battling with Dialga and Palkia, it ended up sacrificing itself to protect the town and everyone in it. After {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} asked Palkia to turn everything back to the way it was, Darkrai was shown to have been revived and was watching the town.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In the American dub, when Darkrai uses an attack in the movie, it announces the name of the attack. This does not happen in the original Japanese version.
[[File:Darkrai shadow.png|250px|thumb|right|Darkrai's shadow]]
* In the English dub, when Darkrai uses Dark Void, it announces the name of the attack. This does not happen in the original Japanese version.
* In the movie, Tonio finds a passage in Godey's diary that reads "So Darkrai, who was hated by everyone else, opened '''his''' heart to [[Alicia]]." This confirmed Darkrai's gender as male in the English dub. However, Darkrai's gender was not mentioned in the original Japanese version, and Darkrai is gender unknown in the games.
