Are there any Dark type pokemon in the Kanto Region?

Question

How come in the episode:Abra and the Psychic showdown" Ash picks a ghost type pokemon? cant he pick a dark type to defeat Sabrina?

Answer 1

Dark-Type Pokemon were introduced in Gen 2 and at the time Ghost -Type moves had no effect on Psychic-Types at all which is weird why in the anime it says Ghost-Types had an advantage. So Ash couldn't capture a Dark-Type Pokemon at the time.

That was a glitch,. Ghost was supposed to hit Psychic.

Answer 2

As of gen 8, yes, technically.

In let's go Pikachu and Eevee, there are regional forms that you can acquire. You can get Alolan Raticate, Persian and Muk. If I forgot any, please tell me.

You can also have a mega gyarados.

Why was this downvoted if it is true?

---

He downvoted my answer too.

---

People here will start to argue bc i'm a troll (No i'm really not a troll)

---

That's not a reason to downvote. You're supposed to downvote bad posts and not downvote out if envy or grudge.

---

And is it reasonable to downvote his in return? No. You posted essentially the exact same thing several minutes after he did.

Answer 3

Dude, the only added information there, was a " Fun Fact " Which are sometimes interesting, but doesn't contribute to the answer of the question as " Added Information ".
