Digimon Mythology: Darkside Power

Summary

Darkside Power (ダークサイドのパワー, Dākusaido no pawā), also called as Power of Darkness (闇の力, Yami no chikara or 暗黒の力, Ankoku no chikara), is the control over Dark Energy, also called Negative Energy. The Darkness itself is the original form of the world, a void of nothingness without time and space, without meaning or existence, from where the world of Digimon was created. Some Digimon are capable of using this power to expand their own darkness, spreading nothingness and erasure over the world.

In reality, every single Digimon in the franchise has some level of Darkside Power, however it's mostly controlled by their "Lightside Power". The Dark Digimon (暗黒デジモン, Ankoku Digimon) are those who are ruled by their "Virus Instinct", and so the most common ones to use this type of power.

Uses

Darkness Manipulation and Unholy Manipulation: Any Darkside Digimon has control over Darkness that opposes Light and uses it in nearly every single one of their attacks; Existence Erasure and Death Manipulation: In Digimon Darkness is a representation of both Nothingness and Death, so the attacks used by Dark Digimon have the power to kill and erase everything they touch; Nonexistent Physiology: Dark Digimon are in fact "Non-Entities", they have been deleted, erased and removed from the world and are now part of a void of nothingness; Absorption: It's part of Darkness' nature to always be absorbing the environment in order to grow bigger; Corruption, Empathic Manipulation and Mind Manipulation: As Darkness covers everything it touches, it corrupts any existence into a new Dark Existence corrupted with the instincts of a Virus Digimon full of ill intent and negative feelings; Empowerment: As darkness is born from ill intent, the power of a dark digimon grows along with its own negative feelings; Resistance and nullification of Holy Power: The Dark Power is the natural opposite of the Holy Power, strong enough Dark Power is capable not only of resisting Holy Power, but also negating its effects.
