Dark Rider (ダークライダー), sometimes also called Yami no Rider (闇のライダー), refers to a group of evil Kamen Riders. These riders are usually evil copies, or counterparts, which resemble or have their powers based off the main Rider (or in some cases, the secondary Rider), with their design adopting a darker color scheme or an inverse of the main Riders' colors, thus the term "Dark Rider".

Most Dark Riders only appear in either movies or specials, although some have also made regular appearances in the TV series.
