All 70 Dark Pals in Palworld

Dark Type Matchups

Damage is decided by the element of the attack, not of the attacker, so any Pal carrying a Dragon move hits Dark Pals harder — and a Dark Pal holding an off-element move can cover its own bad matchups.

All 70 Dark Pals

Every Pal carrying the Dark typing in either slot, 70 of the 288 in the Paldex. Tiers are their standing against the whole roster, not just against other Dark Pals.
