Eerie Tenor

[Anonymous Platypus]

This ability is being created for 2 reasons: To give more Dark-Types the chance to shine and to make "Terrain" moves more viable in the current metagame.

The Dark-Type gained another weakness with the creation of the Fairy-Type. Combine this with the fact that the Dark-Type has no move going over 100 power, and the fact that a lot of Dark-Types have mediocre stats, we realize that most Dark-Types are condemned to the depths of the lower tiers. 

Eerie Tenor is an ability that summons [whatever wins poll] upon entry. This terrain lasts for 5 turns and it affects all Pokémon on the field, grounded and airborne. It will boost the power of Dark-Type moves by 50%, and cut the power of Fairy-Type moves in half. To balance this ability, it will be given to a select few Pokémon. In addition, [whatever wins poll] can also be lifted before the 5 turns are over by using any "Terrain" move, which could potentially raise the usage of such moves.

Effect: Summons [whatever wins poll] upon entry.

• Nature Power turns into Dark Pulse
• Camouflage turns the Pokémon into a Dark-Type
• Secret Power has the animation of Feint Attack and has a 30% flinch rate.

I disagree that this should be an ability. I believe that this should be a "Terrain" move. Dark Types are not mediocre. Knock Off is just as influential right now as Stealth Rock. It hits important types such as Psychic types and Ghost Types. Steel no longer resists it. The dark type does not have many Pokemon with mediocre stats, and those that did are getting Megas. Those that have good stats are great, such as M-Sableye, Ttar, M-Houndoom, M-Absol, etc. They don't need a move that is over 100 BP. Many of them have great type combinations too. This is a good idea, but it works better as an ability.

Yeah, Dark types aren't medicore. They get a lot of usage and is pretty prominent with the new changes in 6th gen. This ability outclasses Dark Aura which is Yveltal's ability and I just don't see other Pokemon producing more dark energy than Yveltal since he's the legendary oblivion pokemon. All terrains should be following the same standard as moves anyways, not abilities. Just make this a move imo, though I don't see why Dark types need anymore boosting with the addition of this as a move. In general, Dark Types are really good rn and don't need any more boosting.

I kinda agree in a way
Dark types are one of the BEST types in the game, definetally not mediocre. This should 100% be changed to a terrain move, maybe call it night terrain and make it have same affects as the other terrain moves, electric terrain and, umm, is it grassy terrain?

Anonymous Platypus , I hope you know this by now, but it's one post at a time. Which means you post an ability, wait until its approved, and then make another one. You have like 3 abilities, so choose one and ask for the others to be locked

I'm asking for Virus and this one to be locked
