  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

==Dark Resistance==
|style="border:1px solid"|<h4>Dream Eaters</h4>
Dark Resistance is a recurring stat in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series. Increasing it through various means will reduce the amount of damage taken from Dark attacks. In most games in the series, Dark Resistance can be raised by equipping accessories or, in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', armor. Dark Resistance is raised in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'' by equipping the [[Dark Screen]] ability (see above).
|-
|Both Spirit and Nightmare Dream Eaters can use these attacks. For Spirits, the available attacks depends on their current [[disposition]]. Nightmares have access to the same attacks as a Spirit with a Type I disposition.

==''Kingdom Hearts Dark Road''==
The [[Darkness-G]] [[Wing Gummi]] is designed as a demonic wing.
===Attacks and abilities===
====Party members====
There are no Darkness-type attacks available.


===Weakness and Resistance===
The accessories and armor that protect specifically against Dark damage are named after darkness-related terms. Certain weapons and accessories are associated with darkness. The [[Oblivion]] Keyblade is associated with Riku, who is in turn associated with darkness, and its design incorporates the kanji for darkness (闇). Roxas also wields a number of Keyblades named after terms of darkness, including [[Glimpse of Darkness]] and [[Darker than Dark]].
====Party members====
Despite a Darkness Resistance stat being visible on the Accessories screen, there is no way to raise Darkness Resistance.


{|class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="width:80%"
Riku's [[Soul Eater]] represents the darkness he wields, which is also incorporated into the design of the [[Way to the Dawn]]. The demonic eye that appears in their designs is incorporated into a number of other Keyblades, including [[No Name]], which has an overall demonic appearance representing his darkness, [[Young Xehanort's Keyblade]], the [[Void Gear]], Terra's [[Chaos Ripper]], and the [[End of Pain]], which is designed as a counterpart to No Name. Terra also wields the [[Darkgnaw]], which has a dark design.
