The Implication of Dark

I added a little quip in the Characteristics section about other features of the Dark-type, specifically how many of the moves are associated with deception and stealing, earning it the title "Dark." I'm pretty sure Dark is not a reference to Night, even though Eevee involves into Umbreon at night, but I think that was just a way to showcase how Day and Night could be used in Gold/Silver. If anyone disagrees with this, I'm interested in your opinion--MJuice 02:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

The Japanese name for the type is Evil, so your observations aren't without support. However, over analyzing too much only adds fuel to the whole 'Pokemon is Satanic' argument.--Dual 04:44, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Special?

Are Dark-type moves really counted as Special-type moves? Even though most Dark-type moves are physical-based? --*Ɣℯⲛօӎօṫհ* 17:21, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
