>>56909484No, you are arguing in bad faith. The entire premise of the Luxray image is that the Dark type is called "Evil" in Japan, which only applies to "darkness and cruel behavior," and that, since neither of these (mostly the "cruel" part) supposedly applies to Luxray, that means it can't possibly be Dark-type.
The counterpoint is that every Pokemon I have listed, however, likewise does not exhibit "cruel" behavior in the main games, or in their Dex entries, and yet is still Dark-type.
>AbsolNot in any way malevolent. It was once feared for being a harbinger of disaster, but in truth neverv caused them - it was instead actively warning others of them.
>UmbreonNo different from Luxray in behavior; it bites things to eat.
>DarkraiCAN plunge others into nightmares, but doesn't like doing so - it does this only in self-defense, not out of maliciousness.
>ZoroarkNone of its lore presents it as having evil intent, or really much in the way of "dark" powers. Conjuring illusions isn't something exclusive to Dark-types.
>MabosstiffIt's a dog. Per his Dex entry, it loves kids, and is usually gentle.
>Alolan Rattatta/RaticateThe only reason they're Dark-type is because they're nocturnal.
>Hisui QwilfishIt's just Qwilfish, but with more potent poison. Nothing says it's malevolent or particularly vicious.
>QwilfishIt's "ferocious," but a lot of non-Dark Pokemon are.
>Scraggy/ScraftyScraggy is a child. Scrafty is territorial, like most animals, and is stated to take good care of friends, family, and territory.
>InkayLiterally nothing about it says Dark-type. It's a squid.
>MalamarThe Dex talks solely of its hypnotic powers - a Psychic-type thing. Also, it's a squid.
>ZarudeThe most you get is it being "aggressive," which again, a lot of non-Dark-types are.
>Alolan Grimer/MukLiterally nothing about it matches the argument made. Muk is even said to be friendly and beloved.
TL;DR the Luxray image's argument is inherently flawed and falls apart under any scrutiny.
