Dark Celebi (Japanese: R団のセレビィ Rocket's Celebi) is a dual-type Grass/Darkness Basic Pokémon card. It is part of the EX Hidden Legends set.

This Pokémon is both type.

Dark Celebi is the first Pokémon with "Dark" in its name to be dual-typed with Darkness and its normal type. This would later return in EX Team Rocket Returns, which, in Japan, this card was a part of, but moved up to EX Hidden Legends for unknown reasons. It is also the first, and only, Basic Pokémon to be a Dark Pokémon.
Strangely, the Japanese name of the card is R団のセレビィ Rocket's Celebi, meaning that it is actually more in league with cards like Rocket's Mewtwo than with cards like Dark Sandslash.

This card references the fate of the Celebi of Celebi: Voice of the Forest, which was captured in a Dark Ball by Vicious.
Leaf Poison's Japanese name is that of PoisonPowder, a move in the Pokémon games; however, Celebi cannot learn it.
