==Trivia==
* Since Generation VII (excluding Pokémon Legends: Arceus), Dark Void has the lowest accuracy of all status moves, signature moves, and Dark-type moves.
* In The Rise of Darkrai, when using Dark Void for the second and third times, Darkrai exclaims the move's name. This does not happen in the original Japanese version.
** In the dub, probably due to an oversight, Darkrai says "Dark Void" when using the move for the third time instead of a localized name.
