A '''move''' (also known as an ''attack'' or ''technique'') is what Pokémon have primarily used in battle ever since the [[Generation I]] games. In battle, a Pokémon uses one move each turn. Some moves (including those learned by [[Hidden Machine]]) can be used outside of battle as well, usually for the purpose of removing obstacles or exploring new areas.

Moves have always been learned by [[Experience|leveling up]], by use of [[Technical Machine|Technical]] and Hidden Machines, and some Pokémon can learn moves only at certain [[evolution]]ary levels. Since [[Generation II]], they can also be learned through {{pkmn|breeding}} and from [[move tutor]]s. {{p|Smeargle}} can also use a move called {{m|Sketch}} to learn a move in battle. All moves (except for [[Struggle]]) have Power Points or PP for short, that limit the number of times that they can be used in battle. Most moves also have a level of Accuracy, as well. For example, [[Sheer Cold]] has an Accuracy of 30%. This means that the move will hit 30% of the time, or thrice every ten times.

A Pokémon can only know four moves at a time. The moves which each Pokémon can learn is dependent on the Pokémon's species. In battle, moves can cause damage, affect a Pokémon's stats, heal the user, make the opponent flee, etc. When there are less than four moves known by a Pokémon, the remaining slots not filled will be indicated by a double dash (--). To forget a move that it knows, a Pokémon must either learn another move or have the move deleted by the [[move deleter]]. This is the only manner in which HM moves can be deleted, even those learned by level up.

Several Pokémon learn moves by level up at levels lower than that at which they can be obtained, either by capture (the case with many [[legendary Pokémon]]) or by evolution. For example, {{p|Sceptile}} learns {{m|X-Scissor}} at level 16, a level at which it cannot be obtained without hacking, while neither {{p|Treecko}} or {{p|Grovyle}} can learn X-Scissor by level. Due to this, it must be tutored this move at the [[move relearner]]'s house.

Until [[Generation IV]], moves ran off of {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} based on their [[type]]. Starting in Generation IV, they were grouped as [[physical move|physical]] or [[special move|special]] dependent on the move itself.

==Trivia==
*During an in-game [[double battle]], after a move is issued, if that Pokémon levels up before its in-battle turn and replaces the move currently awaiting execution with a new move, the new move will be used instead of the old one.
*Multiple turn moves such as Outrage however, will continue to be performed even if the move is deleted between turns. This can happen in both single and double battles.

==Synopsis==
{{incomplete synopsis}}
On their way to participate in the next [[Pokémon Contest]], {{Ash}} and his friends have come to [[Alamos Town]], where they meet a girl named [[Alice]], and her [[Chimchar]]. The two run a hot- air balloon that takes travelers into Alamos Town.

While Alice is showing them around the town, her friend, [[Tonio]], sits in his lab, reading [[Godey]]'s diary. It tells of Alice's grandmother, [[Alicia]], who was playing in the garden one day when she was a little girl. Suddenly, she sees a [[Luxray]] trying to attack something, when all of a sudden it is engulfed by a strange [[Dark Void|orb]] that puts it to sleep. Alicia runs to it, then sees [[Darkrai]] laying under a tree. It is hurt, and she helps it to heal by playing [[Oracion]] on her leaf whistle.

We return to where Alice is showing our heroes around the garden. Ash, [[Dawn (Anime)|Dawn]] and [[Brock]] let their Pokémon out to play in the garden, and [[Dawn's Piplup|Piplup]] sees a berry on a tree. It reaches for it, but anouther Pokémon eats it. Angered, Piplup starts to fight, and Ash, Dawn, and Brock are about to intervene to separate them when Alice starts to play "Oracion" on her leaf whistle. When she finishes, all the Pokémon are calm. As she starts to explain about the song, a [[Gallade]] runs up to them, motioning for them to follow. It leads them to where the garden has been distorted. Then, [[Baron Alberto]], an influential man of the town, arrives on the scene. Alberto is confident that the devastation is the work of the [[legendary Pokémon]] {{OBP|Darkrai|movie 10}}. Then, from the ominous shadows, Darkrai suddenly appears before them. Darkrai tells them to, "Go away!" and it attacks with a Dark Void that hits Ash and puts hit to sleep.

Ash dreams that [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] is killed, but Pikachu shocks him awake from out of the nightmare he is having. As Ash and friends leave the [[Pokémon Center]], Tonio runs up to them and tells them that Space- Time is about to be destroyed. Thinking that it's Darkrai, Ash and friends go off to find the Pokémon. Just at that moment, a fierce battle between {{an|Dialga}} and {{an|Palkia}} is unfolding in an interval of space-time. Space-time is torn apart by the collision of terrible energies. Through the tear, Alamos Town can be seen...

The whole of Alamos Town is wrapped in an ominous fog, and a mysterious phenomenon arises where the people are unable to leave the town. Then, Tonio, who has become aware of the abnormal space-time phenomena, hastily analyzes the data, and discovers that the devastation of the garden was a sign that Palkia had entered the town. Palkia, having sustained injuries in its violent fight with Dialga, took refuge in Alamos Town. However, Darkrai senses the presence of Palkia and attacks it, causing a terrible battle. Furthermore, chasing Palkia, Dialga appears in Alamos Town from another dimension. When the two Pokémon called as gods encounter Darkrai, the greatest battle in history will begin. Powerful shockwaves shake all of Alamos Town, and before long the town is on the verge of collapse. The nightmare written in [[Godey]]'s diary is becoming reality... Will Ash and his friends be able to resolve this crisis? Is Darkrai an enemy or an ally?

==Manga Adaption==
{{main|The Rise of Darkrai (manga)}}

== Trivia ==
* The events of this movie happen between the episodes ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies]]'' and ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'', and premiered in Japan between those episodes.
* Yuyama Kunihiko traveled to {{wp|Spain}} [[n:Pokémon movie screenwriter visits Spain|together with screenwriter Hideki Sonoda]] and composer Shinji Miyazaki, to various places including the {{wp|Sagrada Família}} and {{wp|Park Güell}} in {{wp|Barcelona}}, to get ideas for the setting of the movie.
* The design of the Space-Time Tower is based on the Sagrada Família.
** Also, the architect behind the Space-Time Tower is named Godey, and his descendant is named Tonio, both references to the architect of the Sagrada Família, {{wp|Antoni Gaudí}}.
* In the English dub, Darkrai is referred as a he, even though Darkrai is genderless in the games.
* This is the first movie to feature the opening theme of the season ''after'' the one it corresponds to. In other words, despite being the 10th movie, it features a version of the opening theme of the 11th season, [[We Will Be Heroes]]
* Players who had pre-ordered tickets for the Japanese run could receive a {{p|Deoxys}}. In major cinemas, a {{p|Darkrai}} could be downloaded. Instructions on how to get Darkrai were provided before and after the feature presentation by Meowth.
*This is one of the few movies without a human antagonist. The two others are [[Destiny Deoxys]] and [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]].
*In the trailers, Ash is seen flying over a {{p|Pidgeot}}. This scene was never in the movie itself.
[[Image:InsideSpaceTimeTower.jpg|Inside the Space-Time Tower|thumb|right|250px]]
*On the wall that features Alicia in the center of the [[Space-Time Tower]], there are many Pokémon and their counterparts on the opposite side of Alicia. They are: {{p|Solrock}} and {{p|Lunatone}}, {{p|Dustox}} and {{p|Beautifly}}, {{p|Gallade}} and {{p|Gardevoir}}, {{p|Volbeat}} and {{p|Illumise}}, {{p|Zangoose}} and {{p|Seviper}}, {{p|Electivire}} and {{p|Magmortar}}, {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}, {{p|Wormadam}} and {{p|Mothim}}, {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}, and the two variants of {{p|Gastrodon}}.
* The number of Pokémon debuts in this movie is matched only by ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', ''[[Spell of the Unown]]'' and ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''; this is because these are the only movies to follow the beginning of a new generation. With the exception of the first movie (which was released more than two years after [[Generation I]] had debuted), no Pokémon were introduced in any of these three movies that could not be found in the games of the respective generation. Counting the corresponding Pikachu shorts, ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' had 22 debuts (of which 3 were [[Generation II]] Pokémon), ''Spell of the Unown'' had 16 and ''Jirachi: Wish Maker'' had 14, or 15 if including {{p|Groudon}} as having a live debut. This movie had 18 debuts within itself, or 20 if considering {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s appearances as their live debuts.
*Five minor characters from other movies make a cameo appearance in this movie:
**A man and his daughter, who were briefly seen with {{p|Aipom}} in the beginning of [[Pokémon Heroes]], are given a similar appearance alongside {{p|Chimecho}} and {{p|Chingling}}.
**A man from ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', where he sold {{an|May}} her Wishing Star, sold {{an|Dawn}} a [[Lunar Wing]].
**Finally, the mother and girl that were reading the legend of [[Rota]] in the beginning of [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]] were seen buying cotton candy and running away from Darkrai. These two are seen again in [[Giratina and the Sky Warrior|the next movie]].
* The following promotional cards were released as the {{TCG|10th Movie Commemoration Set}}. Each corresponds to a Pokémon film. The first 11 were bought as a set, complete with a gloss paper folder and protective sleeving, while Darkrai had to be obtained when purchasing a ticket.

*The opening scenes includes references in a row to all earlier movies:
** It starts of with a fleeing {{OBP|Mew|movie 1}} that is attacked by a {{an|Mewtwo}} which uses {{m|Shadow Ball}}, only to be stopped by Mew by absorbing the attack with a shield (''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'').
*** Coincidentally, despite the animation change, Shadow Ball retains the original animation from the first movie.
** Then, a {{OBP|Lugia|movie 2}} appears, flying alongside {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Articuno}}, {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Zapdos}} and {{DL|Legendary birds (movie 2)|Moltres}}, and makes the cloudy sky sunny again (''[[The Power of One]]'').
** A large number of {{OBP|Unown|movie 3}} appear, and soon, an {{OBP|Entei|movie 3}} uses {{m|Fire Spin}} on a Pokémon (''[[Spell of the Unown]]'')...
** ...which actually is a {{OBP|Celebi|movie 4}} that soon heals itself, stops the Fire Spin, and flies to the side of a {{OBP|Suicune|movie 4}} that roars and jumps (''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'').
** A {{OBP|Latios|movie 5}} and {{OBP|Latias|movie 5}} then fly across the screen (''[[Pokémon Heroes]]'').
** A giant, angry {{p|Groudon}} comes from an explosion at the ground and roars, waking up a {{OBP|Jirachi|movie 6}} that flies away (''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'').
** In the {{wp|ozone layer}}, two {{OBP|Deoxys|movie 7}}, both of which are in their Speed formes, flee from {{OBP|Rayquaza|movie 7}}, who uses {{m|Hyper Beam}}, which destroys a cliff (''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'').
** A {{OBP|Lucario|movie 8}} suddenly jumps from the cliff and {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} use {{m|Hyper Beam}} (''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'').
** A {{p|Kyogre}} then makes a majestic jump out of water, being followed by a {{OBP|Manaphy|movie 9}}. (''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'')
** After the above scenes, both {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}} fly past Earth seen from space.
** If these references to previous movies are counted, ''The Rise of Darkrai'' has the most legendary Pokémon in it, with 23, though only three (Dialga, Palkia, and Darkrai) are featured.
** The only pre-[[Generation IV]] [[Legendary Pokémon]] not to appear in the prologue is {{p|Raikou}}, which has yet to appear in a movie.
*A replica of the Alamos Space-Time tower was featured in the museum in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence]]''.
*Elements and motifs from the previous movies are seen in this movie, including:
**Three trainers present to show off the final evolved forms of their [[starter Pokémon]] (''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'').
**A [[Oración|song]] to calm the fighting between powerful Pokémon (''[[The Power of One]]'').
**[[Pokémon battle|Battling]] in [[alternate dimension|another dimension]] (''[[Spell of the Unown]]'').
**One of the legendary Pokémon dies, but comes back to life by the end of the movie (''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'').
**Pokémon to human transformation and vice versa (''[[Pokémon Heroes]]'').
**[[AccordShipping|A romance]] that slowly develops and is later canonized at the end of the story. (''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'').
**Battling within a large town or city and almost destroying it, as well as having [[Tonio|a character that uses computer research to forsee the upcoming situation]] (''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'').
**Constant flashbacks which serve some importance to the plot. Also, the title Pokémon mistaking [[Alice|a female character]] for [[Alicia|one of her ancestors]], due to being close with said ancestor (''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'').
**Solving a riddle (''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'').
* The [[Lunar Wing]] that {{an|Dawn}} bought in the movie returns in ''[[DP104|Sleepless in Pre-Battle!]]'', marking the first mention of the events of the movie in the anime and thus making the movie [[canon]].
* This is the first and only movie where the title sequence music does not contain the introduction theme of the original games.
* The {{p|Shellos}} that appears in the movie is in their [[Form differences#Shellos and Gastrodon|East Sea form]]. According to a recent map of the anime, Alamos Town is actually on the western side of [[Mt. Coronet]], although it is unknown whether or not the Shellos was from Alamos Town.
* This is the first Pokémon movie to be rated PG in the {{wp|United States}} and the first Pokémon movie to be rated in the United States at all since [[Pokémon Heroes]].
* In this movie, Palkia is shiny, noted that it is deep pink in colour instead of a light purple. Making it the first shiny legendary in the anime.
===Errors===
* The same Japanese voice over that is heard in ''[[DP062|Tanks for the Memories!]]'' is heard when Dawn sends out her Pokémon to play.
* During part of the scene where Ash and Dawn's Pokémon are running up the spiral staircase in the Space-Time towers after being separated from their trainers, [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] was mistakenly left out.
