Doomrai's Darkrai Collection (Will Give You Nightmares)

[doomrai]

Hi! New to efour but I’ve been species collecting Darkrai for a few months now.
Here are some of the highlights of my collection!

Unopened 2007 Ichihan Kuji Lottery Big Figure Prize Darkrai Statue

I don’t think this picture truly showcases how massive this statue is. I had no idea it would be this big when ordering it. Still debating whether or not I want to open it.

All 21 Daiichi Pan Darkrai Stickers That Exist + Rise of Darkrai Daiichi Pan Promotional Binder

While I adore the Daiichi Pan stickers for Darkrai, to own this extremely rare official binder to hold them all in means a lot to me. Bonus things featured in this binder: both Dawn stickers as she is my favorite trainer & the final sticker featured being a miscolor of the bubble that comes on that sticker!

Pokémon Center Exclusive Darkrai ID Holder

I’ve only ever seen the one of these online so I had to grab it while it was still available.

Darkrai Sitting Cutie

I love this plush with all my heart. Given to me by friends for my birthday.

And what’s a Pokémon collection without some trading cards? Note: so far I only collect English cards. I currently own 30 out of the 58 English Darkrai cards that currently exist. Here’s the highlights of the cards I own.

Darkrai VSTAR from Crown Zenith: Galarian Gallery

By far the brightest out of all the Darkrai cards & one of the most beautiful.

LV. X Darkrai from Great Encounters

I miss the LV. X cards a lot.

Darkrai Rainbow Secret Rare Full Art from Burning Shadows

The first Rainbow Secret Rare I’ve ever owned in general!

Umbreon & Darkrai GX Tag Team from Unified Minds

Umbreon & Darkrai: name a more iconic duo.

Umbreon & Darkrai - Sun & Moon Promo SM241

Out of all the Darkrai cards that exist, this artwork is in my top 3. This is also the second most expensive English Darkrai card that is out there!

THE CARD U.S. COLLECTORS FORGET ABOUT OR INTENTIONALLY SKIP:
European Exclusive Non-Holo Rise of Darkrai DVD Insert Promo

While the holo variation of this card is not hard to get a hold of, this nonholo variant is hard to get in the U.S. For that reason: this is the card I’m most excited to have in my possession!

Darkrai has been my favorite Pokémon since childhood and I can’t wait to obtain all the English cards for it and any other interesting finds I come across for it.

Oh! One last thing! I’m currently shiny hunting a Darkrai in Platinum in order to ribbon master it.

Till next time!

Great collection.

[DarthEevee]

Fun! We love a darkrai enjoyer. That promo is a good one but the LVx from great encounters will always be my favorite

[mrbubbles]

Very warm welcome to the forums @doomrai. I really love the design of Darkrai and also the Pokemon itself. It is so amazing to see your awesome collection, specially the Daiichi Pan stickers since it can be challenging to track down individual stickers.

Are you planning to branch out to other languages eventually?

Looking forward to seeing more from your amazing collection. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

[doomrai]

Thanks for the kind words @D3F14NC3 @niece @DarthEevee !! What a welcoming community!

Thank you as well @mrbubbles! It was definitely a struggle hunting down every Daiichi Pan sticker… (the first Darkrai sticker I have in the binder was by far the hardest and just so happens to be my favorite design of them all).

That being said, I want to shout-out Splash’s Pan Sticker Shop for being a huge help. I got many of the stickers there as well as the binder!

I keep considering branching out to Japanese Darkrai trading cards as well… but having been both warned about & knowing I’ll never hunt down a Darkrai (046/DPt-P) makes me really hesitant. I know I shouldn’t let one “nonfindable” card deter me, especially since there’s so many Japanese exclusive Darkrai cards that are so cool! Once I complete English Darkrais… there’s a chance Japanese is next. But no promises!

Thanks for helping me out with the English Master set list. I don’t think I’ll ever get this deep into the darkrai collection but I def want to shiny hunt him on platinum on original hardware!! Nice collection!!

[Mewthree]

What’s your number one favorite?

Currently at 1,195 encounters in Plat for Darkrai! I hope your hunt goes well: both in English cards and in game for a shiny Darkrai!

I don’t own it yet but my favorite card is the XY Promo XY114!

If it’s not just a Darkrai card though, my favorite is the LEGEND dual-card I still need to get those two as well!

I love how menacing Darkrai appears in these cards.

This is a wonderfull collection and op. I had such a great time reading and looking through it. It is always fascinating to see a dedicated species collector and I am very excited to see more items showcased.

[doomrai]

Thank you so much! I think my next update will be one that is definitely of interest. I’ve been so fascinated by non-trading card items that those have occupied my mind for a bit, but after my next update I will get back into grabbing the English trading cards!

[Kratosso]

The great Darkrai! So bad and beautiful, always supporting team Darkrai instead of Cresselia!

Great collection and please do not open the figure/statue, box is also beautiful.

About the Daiichi are those in good shape? I have to get some to complete my Porygon collection (only have 1 Porygon-Z)

[doomrai]

@Kratosso

About the Daiichi are those in good shape?

Yes! The Daiichi I received are in good shape. The only one I have that’s not a perfect square I had to grab off eBay, and it was a harder one to find at a good price. Good luck grabbing all 7 Porygon line stickers!

[F22_Raptor]

God bless! I don’t own platinum yet but once I do, ill def hunt him
