How to get free Darkrai in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet
DexertoThe Pokemon Company has released a free Mystery Gift Darkrai in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet, to celebrate the impending release of The Indigo Disk DLC.
The latest Pokemon being given away as a Mystery Gift is one of the most feared Pokemon in the franchise, as Darkrai is a Pokemon with dominion over nightmares. This can be taken literally, as Darkrai is an utter nightmare to face in battle.
Darkrai is a Dark-type Mythical Pokemon introduced in Pokemon Diamond & Pearl. While already a powerful creature thanks to its high stats, Darkrai was feared because of Dark Void, which can hit two foes at once with an 80% or 50% chance of putting them to sleep, depending on the game.
Darkrai has been distributed many times, with a recent appearance in Pokemon Legends: Arceus as a save unlock bonus. Now, the nightmare ruler is making its way to the Paldea region as part of a free Mystery Gift giveaway in Pokemon Scarlet & Violet.
