Black-Glasses 
Black-Glasses is a held item in the Pokémon series that boosts the power of Dark-type moves by 20%. This item can be particularly useful for Pokémon that rely on Dark-type attacks to deal significant damage, enhancing their offensive capabilities.
Introduced in Generation II, Black-Glasses has been a consistent presence in Pokémon games, often given to players by various NPC characters or found in specific locations within the game world. The item is shaped like a pair of dark sunglasses, symbolizing the mysterious and stealthy nature associated with Dark-type Pokémon and moves.
In competitive play, Black-Glasses are sometimes used to amplify the power of key Dark-type moves such as Crunch, Knock Off, and Sucker Punch. This can make a significant difference in battles, especially against opponents with weaknesses to Dark-type moves. However, due to the existence of items like Choice Band and Life Orb, which also boost offensive power, Black-Glasses are sometimes overlooked in favor of these more universally
