Its legs and torso are colored black. Riolu's tail is blue and it has a yellow collar. There are rounded bumps on the backs of Riolu's forepaws, which could be the beginnings of the spikes on {{p|Lucario}}'s forepaws. Riolu has a black &quot;mask&quot; and red eyes. Like Lucario, Riolu stands on its toes instead of its entire foot.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> None.<br /> <br /> ===Special abilities===<br /> Riolu are sensitive to a special type of energy called [[Aura]]. Riolu's evolved form, Lucario, can use these waves to attack, or study these waves to predict the movements of their opponents, and use them to track anyone. However, Riolu does not have the ability to fully use these powers, although it can still emanate these waves to communicate and sense them - albeit only in &quot;ripples&quot; as opposed to the &quot;waves&quot; of energy its evolution can sense and guide. Most notably, it cannot learn {{m|Aura Sphere}} naturally, a move that Lucario learns that is often attributed to its aura powers, although through [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], a Level 30 Riolu that knows Aura Sphere can be obtained through a special mission. Riolu does have a remarkably similar movepool to the [[Hitmons]].<br /> <br /> Like almost all Fighting-type Pokémon, Riolu naturally has superhuman strength, stamina, and endurance and is capable of making long journeys on foot in a short amount of time.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> Riolu are playful, energetic, and loyal.<br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> Wild Riolu once resided in the [[Challenger's Cave]] in [[Unova]], but when the cave entrance collapsed, they moved their habitat to [[Floccesy Ranch]]. Some have also been imported to [[Johto]]'s {{safari|Johto|Safari Zone}}.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[File:Riolu anime.png|thumb|220px|right|Riolu in the anime]]<br /> ===Major appearances===<br /> ====[[Aura Sphere Riolu]]====<br /> Riolu has made its first appearance during ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]] [[DP072|and Two]]''. This Riolu had been trained to use {{m|Aura Sphere}} and was unnaturally strong. It was taken away from the lab by [[J's henchmen]] that wanted to exploit it but {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} returned it to [[Lucario Kingdom|its kingdom]], with [[Kellyn]]'s help. This Riolu developed a strong bond with {{Ash}}.<br /> <br /> ====[[Cameron's Riolu]]====<br /> A {{TP|Cameron|Riolu}} appeared in ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'' under the ownership of {{un|Cameron}}. It evolved into a Lucario in [[BW107]].<br /> <br /> ===Minor appearances===<br /> A Riolu appeared in {{MTR}}'s [[boss fantasy]] in ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]''.<br /> <br /> <br /> {{-}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokédex entries===<br /> {{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}<br /> {{Animedexbody|DP071|Riolu|Ash's Pokédex|Riolu, the Emanation Pokémon.

Riolu has the power to see and understand emotions like happiness and anger in aura waves.}}<br /> {{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Black &amp; White''|Unova}}<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> [[File:Hareta Riolu.png|thumb|Riolu in {{pkmn|Diamond and Pearl Adventure!}}]]<br /> ===In the Phantom Thief Pokémon 7 manga===<br /> {{main|Hiori's Lucario}}<br /> In the [[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7]] manga, Hiori's Lucario used to be a Riolu during [[Hiori]] and [[Lily (Pokémon 7)|Lily's]] childhoods.<br /> <br /> ===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===<br /> In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, [[Maylene]] is seen to own a Riolu, first seen in {{PAV|32}}. It is seen using {{m|Drain Punch}} against {{adv|Pearl}}'s [[Chimler|Monferno]], who {{adv|Platinum}} borrowed in order to fight her. However, in the end, it lost to a well-placed {{m|Mach Punch}} that the girl had perfected by watching slot machines.<br /> <br /> In {{PAV|34}}, {{adv|Diamond}} helps protect an {{pkmn|Egg}} containing Riolu from two [[Team Galactic|Galactic]]-hired thugs, and after they are defeated, it hatches and is shown to interact with its {{p|Lucario|evolved form}}.<br /> <br /> [[Riley]] also has a Riolu which is heavily implied that it is the child of his {{TP|Riley|Lucario}}.<br /> <br /> ===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===<br /> In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], [[Hareta]] gained a Riolu Egg in ''[[DPA10|Serious Training on Iron Island!!]]'' which hatched into a Riolu later on in that chapter.<br /> <br /> ==In the TCG==<br /> {{main|Riolu (TCG)}}<br /> <br /> ==Other appearances==<br /> <br /> ===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===<br /> <br /> Riolu appears as a trophy.<br /> <br /> ====Trophy Information====<br /> <br /> ''&quot;An Emanation Pokémon. It constantly emits Aura energy. When it's frightened or sad, this energy grows stronger and informs its companions of its situation. It's known for its very flexible yet surpassingly powerful body. Thanks to its strength, it can crest three mountains and cross two canyons in a single night.

<p>Toddles822: /* Underleveled Pokémon */</p> <hr /> <div>{{incomplete|needs=In the TCG}}<br /> '''Levels''' are a measurement of how strong a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} currently is. They are portrayed differently in the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{pkmn|games}}, {{pkmn|manga}}, and [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. <br /> <br /> ==In the games==<br /> [[File:Level.png|thumb|right|Level bar in {{game|Black and White|s}}]]<br /> Levels are featured predominantly in the Pokémon games. They are determined by how much [[experience]] that Pokémon has. A Pokémon's level will range from 1 to 100. When a Pokémon gains a level, its stats increase by a small amount. It may also learn a new [[move]] or [[evolution|evolve]]. Opponent's levels may be viewed in-battle, and {{player}}s may see their own Pokémon's levels in-battle, in the [[PC]] or by using the [[menu]].<br /> <br /> A Pokémon's level will also affect its [[friendship]], raising it slightly when the Pokémon levels up. This means that a {{p|Cleffa}} trained in battle will eventually evolve into a {{p|Clefairy}}, with its friendship going up slightly each level. Using Rare Candies will also raise friendship, though for a long time people thought it did not, due to a Pokémon's friendship also being raised by the large amount of walking.<br /> <br /> In Generation I, Pokémon will grow straight to the new level, which can make Pokémon not learn a move it would learn at certain level. In Generation II, it happens only if Pokémon was switched out, and Pokémon learn moves normally. Generation III onwards, Pokémon grow level by level.<br /> ===Level cap===<br /> In the [[Pokémon games]], the level cap is level 100. When a Pokémon has reached level 100, it cannot gain any more [[experience]] or level up. Due to this, level 100 Pokémon cannot [[Methods of evolution#Leveling up|evolve in any way which requires leveling up]].<br /> <br /> In [[Generation]]s {{gen|III}} and {{gen|IV}}, when a Pokémon has reached level 100, even if it has not gained maximum {{EV}}s, it cannot continue gaining EVs through battle (except {{p|Deoxys}}). [[Vitamin]]s can still be used to raise EVs. In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, the player can use the [[Box trick]]. In Generation {{gen|V}} stats are recalculated after every battle, so a level 100 Pokémon gains and applies EVs normally.<br /> <br /> By exploiting the [[old man glitch]] in Generation I, a Pokémon can be acquired at a level higher than 100. Also in Generation I, any Pokémon can also be raised to a level above 100 via the [[Pokémon merge glitch]]; however, Pokémon in the Slow experience group need to be merged with a [[glitch Pokémon]] who requires even more experience at level 100. These Pokémon can continue to be leveled up with [[Rare Candies]] until level 255. Whenever a Pokémon over level 100 gains any amount of [[experience]], its level will revert to 100, and if a Rare Candy is fed to a level 255 Pokémon, it will revert to level 0.<br /> <br /> In Generations I, II,and III, Pokémon were not legitimately available at a level below 2 due to the fact that in Generations I and II Pokémon assigned to the [[Experience#Medium Slow|&quot;Medium Slow&quot; experience formula]] (1,059,860 Exp. at level 100) had a ''negative'' experience value at level 1, causing them to level up instantly to 100 if they were to gain less than 54 experience points in battle (a high possibility on the games' early routes). Due to this, Pokémon on the games' earliest routes were found level 2 or level 3, and starter Pokémon are given out at level 5. When a Pokémon Egg is hatched in Generation II and Generation III, it will likewise be at level 5.<br /> <br /> This oddity was corrected in Generation III via use of a lookup table, rather than the use of a programmed equation in Generation I and II, to determine level via experience points, though Eggs still hatched at level 5, and no wild Pokémon could be found at a level below 2, possibly to maintain continuity. In Generation IV, however, this was changed, with Eggs now hatching at level 1 and certain special Pokémon being available in the wild at level 1. Pokémon on the early routes of the games are still found at their lowest at level 2, however, and starter Pokémon are still given out at level 5 even as of Generation V.<br /> <br /> ===Underleveled Pokémon===<br /> Through some unique circumstances, it is possible to have Pokémon at a lower level than they are usually available via evolution. Underleveled Pokémon appeared as early as {{v2|Red and Green|s}}, with level 4-6 {{p|Kakuna}} and {{p|Metapod}} available in [[Viridian Forest]]. Kakuna and Metapod cannot be obtained by evolution until level 7.<br /> <br /> Prior to Generation V, Pokémon obtained in [[List of in-game trades|in-game trades]] are always the same level as the one being traded away, so many underleveled Pokémon can be obtained through in-game trades. For example, in {{2v2|Red|Blue}} and {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, it is possible to obtain an {{p|Electrode}} as low as level 3, even though the species evolves from {{p|Voltorb}} only at level 30 or above. This Electrode can be obtained by catching a {{p|Pikachu}} in [[Viridian Forest]] at level 3, evolving it with the {{evostone|Thunderstone}}, and trading it on [[Cinnabar Island]].<br /> <br /> Some [[non-player character]] {{pkmn|Trainer}}s use underleveled Pokémon in battle. For example, [[Lance]] has three underleveled {{p|Dragonite}} in Generations {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}}, with one being at level 50 and two at level 49 in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} (Dragonite does not evolve naturally until level 55). Many other in-game Trainers also possess underleveled Pokémon.<br /> <br /> The [[Pomeg glitch]] allows players to obtain any stage of a Pokémon capable of being hatched from an Egg. In {{v2|Emerald}}, this means that all these Pokémon can be obtained at level 5; in [[Generation IV]], these Pokémon can be obtained at level 1. This glitch was fixed in [[Generation V]].<br /> <br /> ===Disobedience===<br /> {{main|Obedience}}<br /> When a Pokémon is obtained in a trade, it oftentimes will not obey the player's commands if it is at too high a level. The Pokémon will either ignore orders and use a different move, do nothing at all and loaf around, hurt itself, or go to {{status|sleep}}. This can be corrected if the player has the proper [[Badge]]s. Having fewer than two Badges means that no traded Pokémon whose level is above 10 will obey the player, while having all eight makes all Pokémon obey the player. The specific Badges that cause a rise in the level of obeying Pokémon can be found on their page, though they are typically the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth Badges obtained. Unova breaks this trend, with each Badge giving various levels of obedience.<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> The concept of levels of Pokémon is not as detailed, nor as frequently mentioned, in the {{pkmn|anime}}. The first time levels were referred to was briefly by {{MTR}} during the second episode when he said [[Ash's Pikachu]] was &quot;powerful beyond its evolutionary level.&quot;<br /> <br /> It was later mentioned more obviously by students at the [[Pokémon Tech|Academy]] in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''. {{ka|Joe|One of them}} was able to quote the levels at which {{p|Pidgey}} and the rest of its family [[evolution|evolve]] and learn certain [[move]]s, and [[Giselle|another]] stated that Pikachu should be at least level 25. However, the main characters and their Pokémon remain seemingly oblivious to the idea.<br /> <br /> {{an|Misty}} mentions them in ''[[EP051|Bulbasaur's Mysterious Garden]]'' where she says &quot;That {{p|Rhyhorn}} must be at a ''high level''!&quot; referring to a Trainer's Rhyhorn's formidable strength as it uses {{m|Take Down}} on {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, severely injuring it. This confirms that she is aware of levels. In ''[[DP163|Fighting Ire with Fire!]]'', Brock mentions [[Barry's Empoleon]] has leveled up a ton since last seeing it, referring to how its battle against a {{p|Mothim}} went. In ''[[DP173|Dealing with a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', when teaching [[Narissa]], Brock says &quot;Now let's level you up. And the only way to do that is to get [[experience]] from battling.&quot; These mentions confirm the ability to inflict damage on certain Pokémon becomes easier when a Pokémon grows a level.<br /> <br /> {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} comments that [[Ash's Charizard]] is on a higher level than he thought. <br /> <br /> {{an|Brock}} mentions in ''[[EP201|Doin' What Comes Natu-rally!]]'' that moves become more powerful as a Pokémon's level is raised; and {{Ash}} adds that the best way to raise levels is by battling. Despite this, Ash's most used Pokémon, {{AP|Pikachu}}, doesn't show signs of being at a higher level than any other Pokémon. After appearing in more than 700 episodes, and battling in most of them, its level would be expected to be very high; however, at the start of each [[series]] of the anime, it either has as hard a time defeating other Trainers' Pokémon as his more recently-obtained Pokémon do or outright loses against them, an example being [[Trip]]'s recently-obtained {{TP|Trip|Snivy}}.<br /> <br /> [[Dawn's Piplup]] also shows that the anime does not strictly follow the games' system. In its debut episode, it used {{m|Bide}}, a move Piplup normally does not learn until level 18, by which point it would be showing signs of evolution. This did not happen until ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]''. Therefore, level up moves can generally be learned at any time in the anime.<br /> <br /> In the [[SS019|two Mystery]] [[SS020|Dungeon specials]], levels are mentioned, but not explained. This may mean that Pokémon themselves understand the concept of levels in the anime but humans do not.<br /> <br /> ==In the manga==<br /> ===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===<br /> The concept of levels appears rarely in the [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga; however, in ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'', [[Samurai]] specifically mentions level 99 {{p|Slowpoke}} and {{p|Magikarp}} which can be found in the [[Hidden Village]].<br /> <br /> ===In the Magical Pokémon Journey and Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪ manga===<br /> Levels do not appear to exist in the world of the manga series [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] and its sequel, [[Pokémon Chamo-Chamo ☆ Pretty ♪]].<br /> <br /> ===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===<br /> At the end of every {{adv|volume}}, the current levels of one of the main characters' Pokémon are given in a Pokédex section.<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Before [[Generation IV]], it was impossible to get a Pokémon at level 1 without the aid of a glitch or cheating device. The lowest level Pokémon would be at level 2 in the wild, and Eggs would hatch at level 5. In Generation IV, however, Eggs are hatched at level 1, {{p|Regigigas}} and {{p|Magikarp}} can be caught at level 1 in {{game|Platinum}}, and {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, or {{p|Giratina}} can be obtained at level 1 in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. <br /> * In [[Generation I]], it is possible to encounter and catch Pokémon at levels over 100 through the [[old man glitch]], and encounter them in [[glitch Trainer]]s' parties through the [[Mew glitch]].<br /> <br /> {{Pokémon individuality}}&lt;br&gt;<br /> {{Project Games notice|game mechanic}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Game mechanics]]<br /> [[Category:Terminology]]<br /> <br /> [[it:Livello]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Level]]<br /> [[fr:Niveau]]<br /> [[ja:レベル]]<br /> [[pl:Poziom]]</div>

<p>Toddles822: /* Trivia */</p> <hr /> <div>:''If you were looking for the moves known as Dark moves in Japanese, see [[Shadow move]].''<br /> ----<br /> {{types}}<br /> The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau|Johto]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark-type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Dark-type moves were special. Dark-type Pokémon were added in [[Generation II]].<br /> <br /> ==Statistical averages==<br /> ===Overall===<br /> {{BaseStatNoCat|<br /> type=dark|<br /> HP=67.05 |<br /> Attack=89.64 |<br /> Defense=65.72 |<br /> SpAtk=70.69 |<br /> SpDef=63.62 |<br /> Speed=73.95 |<br /> Total=430.67 }}<br /> <br /> ===Fully evolved===<br /> {{BaseStatNoCat|<br /> type=dark|<br /> HP=76.61 |<br /> Attack=101.91 |<br /> Defense=78.35 |<br /> SpAtk=83.52 |<br /> SpDef=75.26 |<br /> Speed=80.22 |<br /> Total=495.87 }}<br /> &lt;!--out of 16--&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Battle properties==<br /> {{typebattle<br /> |type=Dark<br /> |weakto1=Bug<br /> |weakto2=Fighting<br /> |resist1=Dark<br /> |resist2=Ghost<br /> |unaffected1=Psychic<br /> |weaken1=Ghost<br /> |weaken2=Psychic<br /> |resisted1=Dark<br /> |resisted2=Fighting<br /> |resisted3=Steel<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==Characteristics==<br /> ===Defense===<br /> Dark-type Pokémon are notable for the fact that they don't have any strong stat trends other than Attack (which is in and of itself modified by a few powerful outliers and slightly ironic as Dark was a special type, not a physical type), but usually have relatively poor defenses, with the exception of {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Spiritomb}}, {{p|Bisharp}}, {{p|Drapion}}, {{p|Scrafty}}, {{p|Mandibuzz}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}. On the plus side, Dark-types have an immunity to {{type|Psychic}} moves. Additionally, Pokémon that are both Dark-type and {{type|Ghost}} have no weaknesses to any moves of any type (excluding {{type|Fighting}} moves used under immunity-negating conditions such as {{DL|In-battle effect item|Ring Target}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark-type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Meanwhile, if a Pokémon with the types Psychic and Dark were to exist, then it would have no resistances while having a double weakness to Bug-type and an immunity to Psychic (It would also be the only Pokémon with Bug as a sole weakness).<br /> <br /> ===Offense===<br /> Dark-type moves, when combating Psychic types, are especially useful due to their secondary effects; {{m|Crunch}} lowers Defense (an already low stat among Psychic-types), {{m|Bite}} causes {{Status|flinch}}ing, {{m|Faint Attack}} never misses, {{m|Night Slash}} has a high {{DL|Damage modification|critical hit}} ratio while {{m|Pursuit}} hits Pokémon as they switch for double damage. Many Dark-type moves also involve stealing or deception, such as moves like: {{m|Thief}}, which steals an opponent's held item; {{m|Snatch}}, which steals the beneficial effects of an opponent's moves; and {{m|Foul Play}}, which uses a number of the opponent's offensive modifiers, such as [[Statistics|Attack]], to calculate damage.<br /> <br /> Even though the Dark type was considered a [[special move|special type]] prior to [[Generation IV]], the three Dark-type moves that are currently special ({{m|Dark Pulse}}, {{m|Snarl}} and {{m|Night Daze}}) were introduced after [[Generation III]], meaning that all Dark-type moves that were once special moves are now all [[physical move]]s, which helps many Dark types since most of them are physical attackers.<br /> <br /> ===Contest Properties===<br /> When used in Contests, Dark-type moves typically are of the [[Smart Contest|Smart]] category, but can also fall in any of the other four Contest categories.<br /> <br /> ==Pokémon==<br /> As of Generation V, there are 39 Dark-type Pokémon or 6.01% of all Pokémon, making it tied with the {{t|Electric}} type as the twelfth most common type.<br /> <br /> ===Pure Dark-type Pokémon===<br /> {| {| class=&quot;roundy&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;background: #{{dark color light}}; border: 5px solid #{{dark color}};&quot;<br /> |-<br /> |<br /> {| border=1 width=&quot;100%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;sortable&quot; style=&quot;background: #FFFFFF; border:1px solid #{{dark color light}}; border-collapse:collapse;&quot;<br /> |-style=&quot;background: #{{dark color light}};&quot;<br /> ! #<br /> !<br /> !

Despite this, there have been three [[Elite Four]] members who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon.<br /> * Because Dark-type moves are super effective only against [[Psychic (type)|Psychic]] and [[Ghost (type)|Ghost]] types, and there has not yet been a Pokemon with that type combination, Dark-type moves cannot deal 4x damage.<br /> * Generation V introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 16 and Generation II introduced the {{tt|least|not counting Generation I, since this type was unavailable at that time}} Dark-type Pokémon, with six. <br /> * Despite Dark-type moves being exclusively special before the physical/special split, every Dark-type move introduced before the split was made a physical move.<br /> * Both types that Dark is weak to, Bug and Fighting, share a weakness to Flying types.<br /> * Generation IV introduced the most Dark-type moves of any Generation, with 11.

<p>Toddles822: /* Trivia */</p> <hr /> <div>:''If you were looking for the moves known as Dark moves in Japanese, see [[Shadow move]].''<br /> ----<br /> {{types}}<br /> The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the seventeen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau|Johto]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark-type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Dark-type moves were special. Dark-type Pokémon were added in [[Generation II]].<br /> <br /> ==Statistical averages==<br /> ===Overall===<br /> {{BaseStatNoCat|<br /> type=dark|<br /> HP=67.05 |<br /> Attack=89.64 |<br /> Defense=65.72 |<br /> SpAtk=70.69 |<br /> SpDef=63.62 |<br /> Speed=73.95 |<br /> Total=430.67 }}<br /> <br /> ===Fully evolved===<br /> {{BaseStatNoCat|<br /> type=dark|<br /> HP=76.61 |<br /> Attack=101.91 |<br /> Defense=78.35 |<br /> SpAtk=83.52 |<br /> SpDef=75.26 |<br /> Speed=80.22 |<br /> Total=495.87 }}<br /> &lt;!--out of 16--&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Battle properties==<br /> {{typebattle<br /> |type=Dark<br /> |weakto1=Bug<br /> |weakto2=Fighting<br /> |resist1=Dark<br /> |resist2=Ghost<br /> |unaffected1=Psychic<br /> |weaken1=Ghost<br /> |weaken2=Psychic<br /> |resisted1=Dark<br /> |resisted2=Fighting<br /> |resisted3=Steel<br /> }}<br /> <br /> ==Characteristics==<br /> ===Defense===<br /> Dark-type Pokémon are notable for the fact that they don't have any strong stat trends other than Attack (which is in and of itself modified by a few powerful outliers and slightly ironic as Dark was a special type, not a physical type), but usually have relatively poor defenses, with the exception of {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Spiritomb}}, {{p|Bisharp}}, {{p|Drapion}}, {{p|Scrafty}}, {{p|Mandibuzz}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}. On the plus side, Dark-types have an immunity to {{type|Psychic}} moves. Additionally, Pokémon that are both Dark-type and {{type|Ghost}} have no weaknesses to any moves of any type (excluding {{type|Fighting}} moves used under immunity-negating conditions such as {{DL|In-battle effect item|Ring Target}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark-type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Meanwhile, if a Pokémon with the types Psychic and Dark were to exist, then it would have no resistances while having a double weakness to Bug-type and an immunity to Psychic (It would also be the only Pokémon with Bug as a sole weakness).<br /> <br /> ===Offense===<br /> Dark-type moves, when combating Psychic types, are especially useful due to their secondary effects; {{m|Crunch}} lowers Defense (an already low stat among Psychic-types), {{m|Bite}} causes {{Status|flinch}}ing, {{m|Faint Attack}} never misses, {{m|Night Slash}} has a high {{DL|Damage modification|critical hit}} ratio while {{m|Pursuit}} hits Pokémon as they switch for double damage. Many Dark-type moves also involve stealing or deception, such as moves like: {{m|Thief}}, which steals an opponent's held item; {{m|Snatch}}, which steals the beneficial effects of an opponent's moves; and {{m|Foul Play}}, which uses a number of the opponent's offensive modifiers, such as [[Statistics|Attack]], to calculate damage.<br /> <br /> Even though the Dark type was considered a [[special move|special type]] prior to [[Generation IV]], the three Dark-type moves that are currently special ({{m|Dark Pulse}}, {{m|Snarl}} and {{m|Night Daze}}) were introduced after [[Generation III]], meaning that all Dark-type moves that were once special moves are now all [[physical move]]s, which helps many Dark types since most of them are physical attackers.<br /> <br /> ===Contest Properties===<br /> When used in Contests, Dark-type moves typically are of the [[Smart Contest|Smart]] category, but can also fall in any of the other four Contest categories.<br /> <br /> ==Pokémon==<br /> As of Generation V, there are 39 Dark-type Pokémon or 6.01% of all Pokémon, making it tied with the {{t|Electric}} type as the twelfth most common type.<br /> <br /> ===Pure Dark-type Pokémon===<br /> {| {| class=&quot;roundy&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;background: #{{dark color light}}; border: 5px solid #{{dark color}};&quot;<br /> |-<br /> |<br /> {| border=1 width=&quot;100%&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;sortable&quot; style=&quot;background: #FFFFFF; border:1px solid #{{dark color light}}; border-collapse:collapse;&quot;<br /> |-style=&quot;background: #{{dark color light}};&quot;<br /> ! #<br /> !<br /> !

Despite this, there is not a Dark-type Pokémon from each generation; Dark is the only type not assigned to a Pokémon introduced in Generation I. This is the opposite situation to the other type introduced in Generation II, {{t|Steel}}.<br /> * There has yet to be a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] that specializes in the Dark type. Despite this, there have been three [[Elite Four]] members who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon.<br /> * Because Dark-type moves are super effective only against [[Psychic]] and [[Ghost]] types, and there has not yet been a Pokemon with that type combination, Dark-type moves cannot deal 4x damage.<br /> * Generation V introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 16 and Generation II introduced the {{tt|least|not counting Generation I, since this type was unavailable at that time}} Dark-type Pokémon, with six. <br /> * Despite Dark-type moves being exclusively special before the physical/special split, every Dark-type move introduced before the split was made a physical move.<br /> * Both types that Dark is weak to, Bug and Fighting, share a weakness to Flying types.<br /> * Generation IV introduced the most Dark-type moves of any Generation, with 11. Generation II (not counting Bite since it was introduced in Generation I) and V introduced the {{tt|least|not counting Generation I, since this type was unavailable at that time}} Dark-type moves, with five.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{langtable<br /> |color={{dark color}}|bordercolor={{dark color light}}<br /> |zh_cmn=惡 / 恶 ''È''&lt;br&gt;邪惡 / 邪恶 ''Xié'è''<br /> |nl=Duister&lt;BR&gt;Donker<br /> |fi=Pimeys&lt;BR&gt;Pimeä<br /> |fr=Ténèbres<br /> |da=Mørke<br /> |de=Unlicht<br /> |el=Σκοταδιού ''Skotadiou''<br /> |he=אופל ''Offel''<br /> |id=Kegelapan<br /> |it=Buio<br /> |ja=あく (悪) ''Aku''<br /> |ko=악 ''Ak''<br /> |no=Mørk<br /> |pl=Mroczny<br /> |pt_br=Escuro&lt;BR&gt;Noturno<br /> |ru=Тёмный ''Tyomnii''<br /> |es_la= Obscuro<br /> |es_eu=Siniestro<br /> |ro=Întuneric<br /> |sv=Mörker<br /> |th=มืด or ความมืด<br /> }}<br /> <br /> [[de:Unlicht (Typ)]]<br /> [[es:Tipo Siniestro]]<br /> [[fr:Ténèbres (type)]]<br /> [[it:Buio (tipo)]]<br /> [[ja:あく]]<br /> [[pt:Tipo Dark]]</div>

It has blue eyes and a upside down grin. This grin, along with how it is usually posed, gives Snorunt the expression of shivering. Snorunt's body is covered with a yellow cone-shaped cloak with an orange rim. The back of the cloak has three orange {{wp|rhombus}}-shaped spots on it.<br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> There are no physical differences; however, female Snorunt are able to evolve into {{p|Froslass}} when exposed to radiation from a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}.<br /> <br /> ===Special abilities===<br /> Snorunt is capable of several {{type|Ice}} moves, such as {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Avalanche}}.

They are said to live under the leaves of plants in harmony. The Ainu live in Hokkaido, the very place in Japan on which Sinnoh is based.<br /> <br /> ===Origin===<br /> Snorunt is based on a &quot;Yukinko&quot;, a Japanese sprite said to emerge when it snows, according to folk tales, as well as the {{wp|zashiki warashi}}, a spiritual creature found in the folklore of {{wp|Iwate Prefecture}}. It also seems to be a stylized version of a person wearing a yuki mino, a traditional Japanese winter costume worn long ago by many people in the snowy parts of Japan consisting of a conical snow-cloak made of straw. Generally, Yukinko are depicted as small elf-like creatures wearing yuki mino.<br /> <br /> ====Name origin====<br /> Snorunt is a combination of ''snow'' and ''runt'' (a smaller-than-average animal).<br /> <br /> Yukiwarashi may be a combination of 雪 ''yuki'' (snow) and 座敷童子 ''zashiki warashi'' (a spiritual creature found in the folklore of Iwate Prefecture).<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Other languages|type=ice|type2=ice<br /> |ja=ユキワラシ ''Yukiwarashi''|jameaning=From 雪 ''yuki'' (snow) and 座敷童子 ''{{tt|zashiki warashi|a spiritual creature found in the folklore of Iwate Prefecture}}''<br /> |de=Schneppke|demeaning=From {{tt|''Schnee''|snow}} and {{tt|''Steppke''|little boy}}<br /> |fr=Stalgamin|frmeaning=From ''{{wp|stalagmite}}'' and {{tt|''gamin''|brat}}.

Four fangs are discernible when their mouth is open, with two on the upper jaw and two on the lower. Electrike have a small pointed yellow-tipped tail, and as its hind legs have spikes on the heels, in certain positions it gives the appearance of Electrike possessing three tails. Its forelegs and chin also have spiky extensions, but their most distinctive feature would be their large head crest, which has angular lightning-like patterning on the sides, with a continuation of the yellow coloration down their snout. Electrike’s additional yellow coloration would include the stripe down its back, its half moon-shaped paw pads on its forefeet and its circular paw pads on its hind feet. <br /> <br /> ====Gender differences====<br /> None.<br /> <br /> ===Special abilities===<br /> The electricity found in Electrike's body is obtained from the friction that occurs when it runs at incredible speeds. It is stored in its fur, and can be released at the Pokémon's will. This allows it to use moves like {{m|Spark}} from the static electricity found in its fur. It can also learn to wield a {{m|Flamethrower}} attack.<br /> <br /> ===Behavior===<br /> Electrike is a Pokémon with an affinity to movement and agility. It is affected by weather, letting out sparks whenever a storm approaches. Its body will also blaze with showers of sparks in seasons of especially arid air. <br /> <br /> As Electrike stores electricity in its fur, it is advisable it brush it frequently. When grooming Electrike, one should not use a metal brush, as the metal will conduct the electrical charge in the fur and subsequently shock the handler. Like other Pokémon in the possession of Trainers, Electrike are depicted to enjoy being brushed, with the proper techniques in mind. <br /> <br /> ===Habitat===<br /> [[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]<br /> They can be found near power plants or in grassy areas.<br /> <br /> ===Diet===<br /> {{main|Pokémon food}}<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[File:Electrike anime.png|right|thumb|180px|right|Electrike in the anime]]<br /> ===Major appearances===<br /> ====[[Wattson's Electrike]]====<br /> Electrike first appeared in the main series in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]'' After [[Wattson]] was easily defeated by [[Ash Ketchum]] during the [[Mauville Gym|Gym]] Match, Wattson needed some time alone.

Wattson decided to keep the electrical canine as one of his own Pokémon.<br /> <br /> ====Other====<br /> Electrike also appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]'' under the ownership of [[Jaco]].
