Sableye (Japanese: ヤミラミ Yamirami) is a Dark/Ghost-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Sableye are very diminutive hominid-like creatures with dark purple bodies. Their bodies are adapted for cave life as they flexible enough to fit into small crevices while being tough enough to survive cave-ins. Their most distinguishing features are their gemstone-like eyes, which allow them to see in very little light. They have gemstones on their chests which grow as a result of its crystal and mineral diet.
They are able to feed on such hard foods because of their sharp razor teeth which are designed to crunch up rocks.

There are old stories that say a Sableye will steal your soul if you look into its eyes. However, evidence suggests that these Pokémon are actually friendly, only playing their infamous tricks on travelers in order to get attention because they become lonely living in dark holes all by themselves.

Sableye live in caves and abandoned mines, where they can readily find mineral deposits to eat.

Trivia
- There are only two Pokémon created so far that are naturally weak to no type, of which Sableye is the first. The other is Spiritomb. The only ways to get a super-effective hit on those two are either to use Foresight or Odor Sleuth followed by a Fighting-type move, or to use a Pokémon with the Scrappy ability which knows a Fighting-type move.
Origin
Sableye appears to be based on a gremlin.
Name origin
Sableye's name is a combination of sable and eye; it may also be a play on the word able-eyed. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 闇 yami, darkness, and 藪睨み yabunirami, a squint.
