Dark Void

Dark

Summary

Dark Void is a Dark-type move with 50% accuracy that induces sleep in the target Pokémon. It does not deal any damage but can hit multiple targets in double battles, making it a strategic choice for incapacitating opponents. Dark Void was originally exclusive to Darkrai, a Mythical Pokémon, further adding to its uniqueness. Due to its high potential to disrupt opponents, the move has been heavily restricted in official Pokémon tournaments, and its accuracy was significantly nerfed from 80% to 50% in Generation VII to balance its gameplay impact.
