Dark Void (Japanese: ダークホール Dark Hole) is a non-damaging Dark-type move introduced in Generation IV. It is Darkrai's signature move.

Effect

The foe is put to sleep. In a double battle, Dark Void will hit both foes, and the accuracy of said move is dependent upon the Pokémon that is targeted.

In Pokémon Battle Revolution, if the Sleep clause is active in a double battle, if Dark Void hits one foe, it will be forced to miss the other.
