    Aww, that video was fun. Porygon2's animation was cuuute. :3

    (3:07) Darkrai cried when it was defeated. Poor thing.

    I don't find Darkrai cheap. Whether it is or not depends on how its Trainer uses it.

    Nothing is "cheap", Darkrai has been acknowledged as too powerful and is uber, that's all there is to it.

    I didn't know you can pay for a Darkrai, how cheap is he xD

    Hmm... I dislike'd Darkrai too, inducing sleeps then start attacking.
    I personally dislike using him, 'nough said.

    I don't think Darkai is cheap. It can be used for more than Dark Void spamming. I've got a physical attacking Darkrai and a special sweeper.

    I think it's just the people that use it.

    Darkrai cheap? Bah, no. Darkrai isn't cheap, he is powerful but not cheap. He can be easily countered by Vital Spirit Primeape, and his pretty weak defense doesn't help him either. So, I would call him a Glass Cannon.

    i think legendaries are supposed to be stronger than normal pokes which is why i dont like legendaries... darkrai isnt cheap just because he has good moves.

    It's all just strategy. I mean. Hypnosis doesn't exactly have the best accuracy of any attack in the game, and nor does Thunder (which you also mentioned he taught it). Darkrai's no more cheap than any other sort of strategy. I once double battled a person whose entire team consisted of using protect, while their other used explosion or self-destruct. I considered that cheap, but it was still a strategy that I never had considered.

    The only instance I can think of Darkrai being cheap is someone using it during an informal OU/UU battle. If you don't like it, don't play Ubers or learn some strategy. It's that simple.
