Dark Void (Japanese: ダークホール Dark Hole) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 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.

When the opponent is hit, a crimson or pink bubble appears around the opponent's body and makes them fall asleep, or Darkrai creates a crimson ball and holds it above its head, releasing multiple smaller balls from the larger one all around it body.
