I went with Darkrai because of its type advantage over Cresselia. I also like the fact that it's not really evil at all; its sleep abilities are only its defense mechanisms and it never intends to harm anyone (outside the Mystery Dungeon world at least).

As this thread is not really related to 4th gen games besides that they come from 4th gen games (unlike starter Pokemon polls as that's just a staple of forums and something everyone encounters in choosing, rather than Darkrai/Cresselia which isn't a choice, especially as one is event-only), I'll punt this to the PokePolls section.

While Cresselia easily compares to Milotic for its beauty, which is one thing I like about it, I'd really choose Darkrai here. I just find Darkrai to be a really cool Pokémon, and even though its design could've been better, it's alright. I also like its backstory, as well as the role it played in the 10th movie, being hated by everyone for something it wasn't even able to control, which was really a different story to what I initially thought about it.

I would pick Cresslia over Darkai because I think Cresselia looks a lot cooler then Darkrai. Though Darkrai dose have better type advantage.
I've got a few stories for those that love Star Wars and the Wings of Fire series:

Cresselia, for more aesthetic reasons, I suppose. It looks more ~fabulous~ than Darkrai

I like Cresselia, cos she's beautiful and I love Psychic-types.

Darkrai. Cresselia's movepool stinks. And Darkrais more awesome in design anyway
I'm a silhouette, asking every now and then
Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?
I'm a silhouette, chasing rainbows on my own
But the more I try to move on, the more I feel alone
So I watch the summer stars to lead me home.

I like them both equally but I think I prefer Cresselia's design.

Dakrai, it's a huge scary beat of nightmares! I never really liked Cresselia's design though, it seems somewhat silly :( Whereas Darkrai's design is 100% epic and it just looks like a complete monster of a Pokémon, so it definitely gets my vote.
