hey as of now, the character breaks training mode can you fix this? it starts with like 4 clones and when you close the game window it crashes.

bc c4resselia is the counterpart to darkrai
Riverdog Deyna 2 Jul @ 11:14am 
True and based, but give us the flame alt!!!
leopaof  [author] 2 Jul @ 5:25am 
what? why, I hate cresselia, long live our nightmare overlord darkrai
thegreatchad 1 Jul @ 5:16pm 
you guys should do a cresselia mod
Riverdog Deyna 19 Jun @ 8:26am 
You really should make it a chooseable alt!
Riverdog Deyna 19 Jun @ 8:26am 
But it's so cool!!! Why can't we use it???
leopaof  [author] 19 Jun @ 3:10am 
oh, that's just colormapping getting in the way, it's not an alt, it's a color distribution used to do the dspecial effects
Riverdog Deyna 18 Jun @ 3:04pm 
Apparently, Darkrai has a secret skin, and I have no idea how to use it. In his files, he's got this cool fiery design. And, you can see it in his reflection on stages like The Desk.
Problem is, the reflections on The Desk only ever show the character's BASE SKIN. But That flame design ISN'T Darkrai's base skin!
So is there any way to actually use it, or is it forever locked behind reflections we can't access?

my only complaint is the uptilt
I just don't like how it looks lol
other than that

10/10 I love it

Incredibly cool and high quality kit and sprites, but I kind of "hate" the taunt, because it is just gross and off-putting and it just awkwardly stands out compared to the rest of the kit, making it a missed opportunity for it to not be a cool or intimidating (like the down special) to match the rest of the kit...

But beyond that minor thing I dislike,
10/10 Character

Smooth animations and i love it

It's either me, or this character makes a match softlocked by going into overtime.

i love this mod
Caggerphx 14 Dec, 2024 @ 10:14pm 
im back 2 months later to say I still think this character needs a buff and doc said he would do voice lines for you
11 25 Nov, 2024 @ 12:02am 
hey lemme do his voice, i can help you if you want tho
brandonbarrett722 16 Nov, 2024 @ 8:19am 
Okay so another weird bug, there is like three extra copies of him that are just Sandbert for the first second right when opening playtest mode?

I really liked playing as Darkrai, a very well done character with excellent setup game. However, there is a major bug.

In some stages, Darkrai as P2 becomes broken. Their clones, up special, and down special, becomes non-functional. This is indicated by when there is a KO effect on the side of the screen at the beginning of the match. I noticed this more often on smaller stages. Can you look into this?

I've noticed that this only happens to P2, and I was able to workaround this with my friend by just playing as P3 or P4.
darthalex41 4 Nov, 2024 @ 1:17pm 
up special and neutral special seem to be broken when playing in multiplayer, up special doesnt even work and neutral special doesn't spawn the phantom
Caggerphx 3 Nov, 2024 @ 1:22pm 
if you try to summon the clones in nightmare mode you still have no defense because your opponent can just walk right past the clones with no knock back. please fix the character!!!!!!
leopaof  [author] 3 Nov, 2024 @ 1:21pm 
no, that's intentional
Caggerphx 3 Nov, 2024 @ 1:19pm 
make his clones so knock back his gimick just doesn't work without it
AtomicDisaster139 1 Nov, 2024 @ 10:32pm 
I had closed the stage and reopened it, and I can not replicate it anymore, so there's probably another condition for it to happen.
AtomicDisaster139 1 Nov, 2024 @ 10:22pm 
Small update: It seems that it happens when you dodge to the ground rapidly consecutively
AtomicDisaster139 1 Nov, 2024 @ 10:18pm 
This character is one of the coolest mods I've seen in a while, but I found a small bug. in nightmare mode, the extra apparitions that appear when you dodge can stay (I don't know the exact requirements, cuz I was spamming the dodge button), looping the animation of them appearing. the two animations i've seen stay are the dodging into the ground animation and the airdodge animation (because grounded doesn't create the extra apparitions. still though, this mod is awesome, keep up the great work!

It'd be great if the CPU could use neutral b more, especially offstage to recover. It only uses upb directed up and gets cheesed because its not using teleports or angles.
daguyz377 1 Nov, 2024 @ 4:41am 
ho
ly
shit
this might be one of the most ambitious mods ive ever seen. i cant believe you made a pokemon in a fighting game scary
Esvansi 30 Oct, 2024 @ 6:41pm 
Getting parried seems to permanently delete on stage phantoms until you lose a stock, like the phantom cap gets reduced based on how many got deleted from getting parried.
(ie, if theres 2 phantoms on stage and i get parried, i can only have a single phantom on stage until losing a stock)
RelicTwizzard 30 Oct, 2024 @ 4:56pm 
Absolutely lovely character, perfect in all things gameplay, sound design and visuals, but sometimes crashes the game after neutral special or just doesn't get his clones at all. If that gets fixed I'll have have found my new main. Either way though, great work! I cannot think of a better way to bring darkrai to rivals.
Solomon 30 Oct, 2024 @ 7:07am 
yea there's a glitch that prevents Darkrai from creating clones when playing online, as reported by Paco 3 days ago. It's such a great character so its a bit sad that you cant use it online with friends, hope there's a fix
Caggerphx 29 Oct, 2024 @ 6:07pm 
by the way these "balance patches" are kinda dumb

what do the abyss runes do?
Caggerphx 29 Oct, 2024 @ 5:01pm 
day 15 of asking for voice lines (thats right i'm back :)
brandonbarrett722 29 Oct, 2024 @ 12:26pm 
Okay so when you battle with a Darkrai CPU in custom stages, there's a random death explosion effect at the top right of the screen at the very start of the match. this has sort of bothered me with how out of place it is.

Still a super, SUPER good character regardless, the high effort really shows with this one.
count P_YT 29 Oct, 2024 @ 3:27am 
ahhhh that explains it, thank you! Awesome character btw
leopaof  [author] 28 Oct, 2024 @ 9:24am 
they fight (if you have cpu behaviour to stand in training they won't fight obv)
count P_YT 28 Oct, 2024 @ 8:50am 
what do the clones do in nightmare mode?
leopaof  [author] 28 Oct, 2024 @ 5:16am 
Nah, it's better like this, nightmare was literally uncounterable before
Ronny_hellR 27 Oct, 2024 @ 2:59pm 
you kinda killed the character ngl
leopaof  [author] 27 Oct, 2024 @ 10:59am 
It's called "balance patch", some things were way too egregious
The Man Who Sold His Balls 27 Oct, 2024 @ 10:51am 
Incredibly fluid animations. Incredible job on the spritework. Overall the best animated character I've ever seen in the workshop.
leaf! 27 Oct, 2024 @ 7:30am 
Did Darkrai just get nerfed into the ground out of nowhere recently-? Phantoms stay out for like half as much time as before, and his Up B goes absolutely no distance at all.
Paco 26 Oct, 2024 @ 6:31pm 
During some online matches, there will be a sound effect like a player being KO'd right at the start of the match, and Darkrai's phantoms just won't appear after using any of those moves. It's not just visual either, they just don't work. I hope this can be addressed, it's very strange and doesn't seem to happen in every match.
JackFrost777 26 Oct, 2024 @ 2:51pm 
Glad to play one of my favourite Pokemon and I like what you did for his moveset.
leopaof  [author] 26 Oct, 2024 @ 12:37pm 
minor bugfix
