2424 Tips for Finding Dark-Type Pokemon
2525  
2626 Dark-type Pokemon appear across four of the five main regions. The earliest ones you can find are Cacturne (available in any area once you build a Tree-Shaded Flower Bed) and the Bleak Beach Dark-types like Zorua and Absol.Several Dark-type Pokemon are Rare or Very Rare. Tyranitar at the Mossy Rest Spot in Rocky Ridges is Very Rare, so building the habitat does not guarantee an immediate spawn. Be patient and check back regularly.Zoroark has both Chop and Trade specialties, making it one of the most versatile Dark-type Pokemon. It appears in two habitats in Bleak Beach.For Lumber production, prioritize befriending Chop specialists like Absol or Zoroark. Place them near a wood processing area for efficient Lumber conversion.Cacturne only appears at night. Make sure to check its habitat after dark if you are looking for it specifically.Check the Habitat Dex for complete habitat construction requirements and the Pokemon Specialties page for a full breakdown of each specialty.
