Darkness

Darkness are evil versions of characters with Black and gray skin and glowing bright red eyes created by none other than Dark, Planet darkness leader. They are usually the head of one of Dark's nasty plans. Defeating them is required if one wishes to acquire a Nano, but not every one creates a Nano. Sometimes a Darkness of a certain character will create a Nano of another one: Darkness shade creates Ix, Darkness Knuckles creates Shade and His nano, Darkness Silver creates His Nano and Lightning , Darkness Blade creates Dragons , Darkness Grenade creates Heriku,and Darkness Heriku creates Striker.

Darkness lairs are normally caverns with a maze like structure and a lot of mushrooms, but in more technology. On occasions, there are lairs containing "boss" versions of normal enemies and normal versions.
