All Dark Pokemon So Far
There are a lot of different types of Pokemon in the series. In fact, there are now 18 types in the games which have been built upon since the series started on the Game Boy back in 1996 (though they didn’t head west until ’98). One of the more popular types are Dark Pokemon which are immune to Psychic and resistant to Ghost and other Dark Pokemon. In the latest games they’re even immune to any abilities that are bolstered by Prankster, an ability that gives certain moves priority in order to get by defenses.
After being introduced in Generation II (Gold and Silver), They have grown in popularity and quite a few have been added to the game. Here’s a complete list of all Dark Pokemon available in the series so far.
