The Dark Dragon Balls (暗黒ドラゴンボール Ankoku Doragon Bōru) are a set of Dragon Balls created by a Time Breaker Namekian, Xeno Dende. Unlike their various counterparts, these Dragon Balls scatter through time and space.
Overview

Frieza merged with the One-Star Dark Dragon Ball
Dark Dragon Balls are a set of dark red Dragon Balls with a black colored star. Uniquely each ball possesses the ability to merge with an evil entity to power them up, along with their ability to grant a wish when gathered. If a host of a Dark Dragon Ball is defeated, but the Dark Dragon Ball is not removed in time, the Dark Dragon Ball will cause the host to undergo a Dark Evolution.
It is revealed in the Super Dragon Ball Heroes: Dark Demon Realm Mission! manga that they were created by Demon Gods in order to revive Mechikabura with the aid of a Time Breaker Namekian. After their creation by the Time Breaker Namekian, Towa aims to collect all of the Dark Dragon Balls so that Mechikabura can use them to wish for youth. However, they scatter through space and time before they can be used. The Time Breakers then begin to collect them, coming into conflict with the Time Patrollers along the way.
When all seven are gathered they can be used to summon Dark Shenron (暗黒神龍 Ankoku Shenlong).
