    Honestly, one of my favorite dark types is Krookodile. With moxie, that guy is a beast and can carry runs like this. He’s done it for me!

    My favorite dark type was originally Honchkrow but once I saw Kingambit I was like “OOOOOOOH”
    And I didn’t think Bisharp Needed an evo but I took that back after I saw Kingambit Edit:You Probably Could’ve gotten Brute Bonnet in Area Zero (Assuming your not doing the thing where you can only get one Pokémon per route if it’s the same type in A monotype)

    Greninja is one of, if not, my favorite Pokemon of all time, but I can't determine if I love it more as a Dark Type or a Water Type.
    If I love it more as a Water type, then either Hydreigon or Bisharp is probably my favorite Dark Type. All three are incredibly badass, and I love the imagery of Greninja and Bisharp fighting side by side.

    My favorite dark type is definitely Mabosstiff! It’s also my favorite Pokémon overall. Mabosstiff’s design, Pokédex entries (specifically it’s violet entry), it’s role in the game, being the ace of my favorite Pokémon character, and just the emotional attachment I have to it. I can definitely see mabosstiff being my favorite Pokémon for a long time to come.
    Also, I’ve seen a lot of people call Meowscarada’s deisgn “disturbing” or “weird”, etc. but I personally see no problem with it? Am I just dumb? Blinded by my love of the Pokémon? I think it has one of the best designs in Gen 9. I used one in my first ever scarlet play through and saw nothing wrong with its design. Of course. I could just not be seeing something.
