What is a "dark type" pokemon. What sets the apart from others
>>
>>57185906
>Dark type is "evil" type in japan
every single dark type is a rapist.
>>
>>57185906
they wanted something to fit the evil teams like Team Rocket besides poison type since it's Evil-type in Japan but it became a mess of anything with "haha cartoon mischevy = evil xD" like that rat that goes mad when he's hungry or the dumb fursona cat

Maybe because it's based on Mafia (it has the Vito Corleone's face and hair). It's even categorized as Boss Pokemon.
>>

I always forget it's a mob boss themed Pokemon because its hair and color look so in line with the professors and Arven.
>>
>>57186014
Mafia isnt evil.

Pokemon fans are retards.
>>
it'a a shit type shoehorned in to deal with psychic instead of admitting that bug type needed a big buff

>>57185906
Other than most things edgy/evil, Dark is typically anything that can be considered "taboo" in ways or anything with a strict social structure & moral adherence that doesn't better fit another typing.
>Murkrow, Bisharp, Poochyena, etc are all pack animals that can be kinda mean, some of which that have a very strict and/or borderline toxic hierarchy. These things are typically considered "bad"
>Absol is an outcast doomsayer. Self explanatory.
>Nickits are literal thieves
>Zoruas are bothersome pranksters and deceivers
>etc
Plus there are the IRL inspirations for the pokemon which may influence their typing, like Shiftry which is based off cruel spirits that bear a similar look.

Luxray only kinda fits these things, being a carnivorous pack animal. But that's too generic to make them Dark type alone. If we go slapping the specific types on anything with matching colors then things would get stupid fast.

>>57185906
More likely to use moves like thief, taunt, and swagger, if you know what I mean.
