Lunar Duo

The Lunar Duo, like the Eon Duo, is a pair of Pokémon that are closely related: Darkrai and Cresselia.
In the anime, Darkrai leads Cresselia in a perpetual Cat and Mouse game with Darkrai stopping only to cause Bad Dreams and Cresselia scaring it off and healing anyone in the vicinity with its Lunar Wing.
Darkrai is the Pokémon of the New Moon and resides on Newmoon Island while Cresselia is the Pokémon of the Crescent Moon and resides on Fullmoon Island.
The abilities they both possess cause disruptions to people and Pokémon for their sleeping is disturbed from both sweet dreams and worst nightmares. Hunted for their misfortunes, forces the two Pokémon to be forever separated except for once a year when their abilities are suppressed the Alpha Pokémon Arceus so that both Pokémon can be given a single night together.
==Trivia==
*This is the only Legendary trio/duo to contain one Legendary and one Mythical (not counting Keldeo as part of the Swords of Justice).
*The feelings between the two Pokémon are also most likely based on a Chinese folktale, "The Cowherd and The Weaver Girl" based on the brightest two stars in the known universe, Altair and Vega. The Cowherder and The Weaver Girl's love was forbidden and were banished on opposite sides of the celestial river of the Milky Way. But once a year, on the seventh day of the seventh month all the magpies in the world fly up and build a bridge between them so the two lovers can be united for a single day of passion.
