Dark Matter

is the main antagonist and the final main-storyline boss in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon. It is not a Pokémon; instead, it is made up of negative feelings of Pokémon in the world, and absorbs Pokémon's energy as it turns them into stone, thus enhancing itself. Its goal is to kill the Tree of Life, stopping the spinning of the planet and causing the planet to be drawn towards the Sun.
==Biography==
Dark Matter once surfaced the planet a very long time ago. The ancient Pokémon fought against Dark Matter, and Mew was the leader of them. Alongside the Pokémon was also a human that joined the battle. Despite Dark Matter was defeated, the hatred of Dank Matter rained down upon the world, meaning that it would resurface once again in the distant future, the Pokémon prepared countermeasures for it, like sealing the Luminous Water on the top of Revelation Mountain and the creation of two Harmony Scarves. Mew sent its spirit to the future as the partner Pokémon.
===Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon===
During the story of Super Mystery Dungeon, being possessed by Dark Matter, Nuzleaf, Yveltal and Beheeyem turned Pokémon around the world into stone, including the player, the partner, Mawile and Dedenne. While they are traversing the Voidlands, Ancient Pokémon's writings on stone walls mentioned that Dark Matter is responsible for the crisis of the planet. Later, when the player, the partner, as well as Ampharos, Jirachi and Celebi made their way to Primeval Forest where Tree of Life is, Dark Matter is shown on top of the Tree of Life, and begins to pull the Tree of Life after a battle with Nuzleaf, two Beheeyem, and Yveltal. Thanks to the combined efforts of Pokémon including Rayquaza, Mewtwo and Deoxys, the lifting is significantly slowed down.
The player and the partner are teleported inside the Tree of Life by Arceus, and manage to free Nuzleaf, two Beheeyem and Yveltal out of Dark Matter's control. Finally they are able to reach Dark Matter, but it traps them in a pocket dimension of its own marking. They battles Dark Matter, but when they have almost won, the Tree of Life finally runs out of energy, causing the player and the partner to devolve and Dark Matter to regenerate, turning everyone except the player and the partner into stone. Although Nuzleaf, Beheeyem and Yveltal shows up and attacks Dark Matter for atonement, they are turned to stone soon as well. Although the player is told by Dark Matter to give up, the encouragement of petrified Pokémon are heard, and the two starts fighting again. The second battle starts, and the core of Dark Matter is eventually exposed. Before it is able to be destroyed, Dark Matter warns them that destroying it would cause it to reborn again in the future. The partner accepts this and destroys the core of Dark Matter, causing it to shatter into pieces and faintly thanking the acceptance as the screen turns into white. Dark Matter is not seen after this, as Xerneas explains that it has been completely destroyed.
==Trivia==
*Like the Bittercold, Dark Matter is not a Pokémon, and is created from the negative emotions of Pokémon. However, unlike the Bittercold, Dark Matter is able to speak through telepathy.
**The voice of Dark Matter is described to be multiple voices speaking as one. This is reflected by its dialogue, where in Japanese, it goes through romaji, katakana, hiragana and kanji; while in English, the dialogue is randomly capitalized instead.
*Dark Matter shares its name with the recurring Kirby antagonist of the same name.
**Furthermore, both are born from negativity and can mind control other beings.
