>>11814619I've never felt that dark typing was a negative other than having to worry about fighting type moves. I always see it as something like having a STAB Sucker Punch which is one of the strongest priority moves there is.
If all you want to do is just shoot off high powered attacks you probably shouldn't be taking a Dark type, or should just deal with not always having your STAB to be the best choice. It's what separates it from the other types so much.
It's like complaining about how many grass types have to use Giga Drain.
