Final thoughts on mega darkrai
>>
>>58915715
I don’t really like these pseudo-transformer megas.
>>
Looks dumb, but still not as dumb as mega Manectric.
>>
>>58915715
Garbage like most ZA Megas

>>58915757
tpbp

Looks cool as fuck. Another banger mega, they just don't miss.
>>
I just don't get why it wasn't a Mega Jirachi if the DLC shit was all about wishes and nothing about nightmares.
>>
>>58915792
Not a thing

shit that could have been made with thousand of better options

>>58915715
Unironically one of the only good mega designs from ZA
>>
>>58915715

Meh, literally makes no sense why the pokemon of nightmares was chosen to be the mega when nigtmares had nothing to do with the DLC story, Cresselia or Jirachi makes more sense, bringing "Dreams/Wishes" to life.

>>58915715
game kept getting corrupted so i deleted it and never finished the dlc. dlc wasn't that interesting and i had already jerked off to Ansha.

They said it in Gen 3. All dreams are another reality. Then Gen 5 doubled down on it with the Entralink and dreams being able to manifest another plane of existence, bringin things from the collective unconscious to reality. PMD also framed Darkrai’s nightmare control as being able to distort timespace.

Plus Darkrai was already sort of associated with the Kalos legends. It has the same eyes, color scheme, and fluff as Yveltal, and Gamefreak used the Kalos legendary theme to promote an event for it back in 2014.

Gen 4 was all about this, and how human perception (spirit) informs and binds reality (matter, timespace). This is the exact relationship between UMA and DiaPer. JP fans caught onto the Kantian aspects of their relationship and symbolism at least a decade ago, but for most western fans, it took PLA spelling it out in a character dialogue for it to click. Dream pokemon would have a cause to be affiliated with reality warping, then, since they are directly twisting the human mind.

>>58915960
Yeah. It's Darkrai, Chimeco, Megaerna, and maybe one or two others. All else are mid or trash
>>
>>58915715
Could be creepier if darkrai's neck was longer
>>
>>58915715
It's like alright on it's own. But given how cool Darkrai was there was potential for something better than this.

Kirby final boss/10

>>58915715
If they didn't shove the head through the giant eye it would have been fine

single-handedly ruined the design.

The DLC had nothing do to with actual dreams (as in sleeping hallucinations; or even nightmares) and all about wishes. That's the Jirachi lore, not Darkrai's.

Mega Darkrai instead of Mega Jirachi made no sense. At least the writing was off because Darkrai was just being really nice to everyone instead of tormenting people.
