#bwark#isat spoilers#in the tags because im gonna ramble jere#like i don't bat for king or anything but he really is just darkrai done right#he has an understandable and sympathetic reason to his actions but you are Not supposed to feel bad for him#he's still doing terrible things and obviously the player is put into siffrin's shoes for pretty much all of the game bit the bonnie scene#is one of the best examples of that#the game is so interesting in how it handles him as an antagonist. there's so much nuance but by the end there's no wishy-washy shit about#him being redeemable#meanwhile darkrai is evil for. reasons. because he's a scary looking pokemon?#darkrai is the one thing the anime has over the pmd games because darkrai is so interesting in the anime#for all the shit i give journeys it canonizing darkrai and cresselia having a symbiotic relationship was fantastic#hell pokepark darkrai is more interesting than pmd darkrai with his role as sort of an antihero#the most interesting thing about pmd darkrai is him suicide baiting children and tbh atp that's just funny to me in how messed up it is#like it's so over the top dark that's it's just hilarious#darkrai: you should kill yourselves NOW#my eevee hero and shinx partner in the middle of having a minecraft date:
