- The fan artist received compliments for their creative backstory and design, and fans are excited to see what they will create next.
A Pokemon fan and artist designed and showed off their latest creation, a Future Paradox form for the Mythical Pokemon known as Darkrai, on social media. Following their post, the Pokemon fan artist was commended for their efforts by other trainers, with some commenting on some of the stories that the artist made for this new Pokemon form.
Known as the Pitch-Black Pokemon, Darkrai is a Mythical Dark-type Pokemon that first appeared in Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. With the ability Bad Dreams, it can passively steal the HP of enemies that fall asleep in battle. Darkrai can use status-altering moves, such as Dark Void and Hypnosis, to force its foes into a nightmarish slumber. In its original appearances, Darkrai could only be fought and captured after using the Member Card item that was only obtainable via events or through Mystery Gift. However, Darkrai's encounter in Pokemon Legends: Arceus was more straightforward, as players faced the Mythical monster during the "Darksome Nightmare" quest.

Creating A Paradoxical Nightmare of Pokemon Fan Art
With its flowing white hair and nightmarish stare, Darkrai's design has remained the subject of Pokemon fan artists for generations. Following their previous work on a Future Paradox form of Keldeo, a Reddit user named JJonnie set to work on making a Future Paradox form for Darkrai and posted their work on the r/Pokemon subreddit. Keeping with the nomenclature used for Paradox Pokemon found in Pokemon Violet, the OP dubbed their latest creation "Iron Singularity" and showed it off with three different poses. Iron Singularity was given the Dark and Electric types, and most of Darkrai's body shape was kept intact. Compared to the original Darkrai, the Paradox version's white hair glowed yellow and pink with electricity, and its entire body was covered in dark metal. Furthermore, a black hole was placed in Iron Singularity's chest.
Iron Singularity's signature move was called Mighty Pull, which used the black hole in the Pokemon's body to intensify gravity and ensnare its enemies. JJonnie also included an interesting bit of Pokemon lore, as Iron Singularity's black hole could be negated by another Paradox Pokemon they designed. The Future Paradox form of Hoothoot called Iron Portal could merge its portal with Iron Singularity's black hole and effectively cancel each other out by sending them to a pocket dimension.
The OP was complimented by Pokemon fans for the backstory and design of Iron Singularity. With Paradox Pokemon designs proving popular with Pokemon fans and artists, only time will tell what they will create next.
