List of All Darkness Type Pokemon Cards
Darkness-type cards mainly rely on poisoning opposing cards to slowly whittle down their health and even deal extra damage like with Muk's attack.
These cards also need long preparations, either from amassing Energy or evolving cards, before they can be fully usable, so long matches should be expected when using Darkness decks.
