Origin

This Darkrai card is based off of the Nintendo event Darkrai given out in Japanese movie theaters playing Dialga vs Palkia vs Darkrai in July, 2007 and given out at Toys "R" Us stores at the end of May, 2008 in the United States. That Darkrai also had the attacks Roar of Time and Spacial Rend.
