What it does
When you play Dark Crobat from your hand, you may choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This power does 20 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance.)
Flip a coin for each of your opponent's Pokémon. For each heads, this attack does 10 damage to that Pokémon. Don't apply Weakness and Resistance. Remove a number of damage counters from Dark Crobat equal to the damage dealt. If Dark Crobat has fewer damage counters than that, remove all of them.
Although the wings it has evolved on its feet allow it to fly at high speeds, they unfortunately make it difficult to perch.

Where it came from
The Dark Crobat card was released in 2002 as part of the Neo Destiny expansion, the fourth and final set in the Neo series for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set was notable for introducing 'Light' and 'Dark' Pokémon variants, which mechanically and aesthetically emphasized the alignment and morality of the creatures. The Dark Crobat, as a staple of the Team Rocket-inspired themes that permeated the Neo era, represented the strategic shift toward more aggressive playstyles and complex card interactions favored by the competitive scene at the time.
The card features artwork by Hironobu Yoshida, a long-time illustrator for the Pokémon TCG who is known for his dynamic, often slightly dark or edgy style. Yoshida’s depiction of Crobat captures the creature's predatory nature, utilizing the holofoil pattern to accentuate the speed and menacing presence associated with the Dark typing. Upon its release, the card was well-received by players for its 'Surprise Bite' Pokémon Power, which allowed for immediate damage placement upon evolution, solidifying its status as a sought-after card for both collectors and tournament participants.
