Let's See ... Who Should I Battle With?

Dark Gym Art, The Last One ... Maybe

I've been through a Whirlwind of events since first training Dark types in Ruby/Emerald. In Pursuit of completing my Dark Pokemon bead art challenge, I found my way to Return to one of the first dark Pokemon that I trained for combat. On a Sunny Day, it has the potential to be one of the fastest Pokemon to Fling opponents into a corner and have them balled up in a Defense Curl. If you and your team choose to battle this Pokemon, I'd suggest a Double Team effort, because in a Flash you will feel the Strength of his Explosion. It's ...

Get the Legendary Pokémon Darkrai!

Take advantage of this rare opportunity to get the Mythical Pokémon Darkrai in a special distribution event through Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection! When you get this incredible Pokémon, it will be Level 50, and it will already have its signature Dark Void attack, which puts its target (or targets in Double Battles) to sleep. Dark Void is so powerful, it's one of only a few moves not allowed in competitive play! Darkrai also arrives holding a valuable Enigma Berry, which restores 1/4 of the holder's HP when that Pokémon is hit by a supereffective move. Darkrai will be available from May 9 until June 10, 2012, via this special distribution. Don't miss this chance to claim one of the most powerful and hard-to-get Pokémon!

Well I made it all the way to the end of my little project. There are a few they may be remade, but never-the-less every last dark Pokemon has found a home. In this post, I will display two of the last three. First up, Liepard. I have yet to add this Pokemon to my dark roster, but it's dream world ability may give this cat some Charm. Until that version is released, Liepard will be placed on the back burner, waiting to Assist.

The next dark type to the center stage has been allowed a spot just as long as it promises not to stink up the place. No one told this Pokemon to lay off the beans as it's Poison Gas is much more than a lingering Memento. When this Pokemon is around, there isn't a need to ask who Cut the cheese, as the Flame Bursting out of his backside is proof enough. It's Skuntank.

One more to go! Where you keeping track? Do you know who it is? To be concluded ....

Every dog has his day and today this dog is eager to Take Down all challengers. When Mightyena is on the trail of a would-be Thief, it's always ready to Bite and sink teeth into anyone this Odor Sleuth can sniff out. If the Snarl from this Pokemon's jaws doesn't deter you from trying to Snatch an item, then let Me First warn you. It will Howl for Payback.

This Brave Bird is the cock of the walk. Wherever it decides to Roost it has the Assurance that it will Quash all conflicts. This Aerial Ace has the Moxie to Retaliate against any foe. Taunt him if you dare, to be blunt, he just doesn't give a Pluck. I'm talking about the Don(karasu) of course, A.K.A. the head Honchkrow.

I took my second crack at training Drapion in bead form. It came out a little more Toxic than I had hoped. My aim was to Dig through my large bucket of beads to find the right match-up that would Cross Poison with Dark and come up with a combination that would keep fans of this Pokemon from getting up in a Roar. I hope you all will Return for the next installment.

This one was having a problem keeping his pants up. I didn't want it to go through any Frustration trying to pull off a Hi Jump Kick and end up with his Head Smashed. Hopeful now that I have fused Scrafty's sprites with an iron, I can Rest easy. I'll be back with more. I've had too much juice to drink, so it's off to the men's room to Drain Punch.

If you want a crustacean pokemon, don't fall for some cheap Knock Off, go for the true king of Crunch with a Crabhammer to back it up. If you ever find yourself trapped in his Vicegrip make sure you Protect your neck, because you'll be one step away from a date with a Guillotine. If you play your hand wrong, you will just another victim of his Superpower. Clearing this stick from your craw can be quite daunting! IT'S CRAWDUANT!!!

This Prankster is quick to pull off a Trick or two which will leave opponents who fall for his Toxic Taunt, with a Mean Look on their faces. His ghostly charms are sure to Astonish even the most advance Pokemon trainers. They will be quick to learn that no one on the corner has Swagger like Sableye.
