Ditto (pun intended) on what GuyNin said. I believe someone made a typo with Gyarados' Dragon Pulse being mistaken for Dark Pulse.

Yes, it is an error. The highest DPs Pokemon with 2 Dark moves is Gengar with Sucker Punch / Dark Pulse. Gyarados is actually the second, using only Bite.

I think Gyarados is right as the first one because the difference between its Bite and Gengar's Dark Pulse is minimal but Bite is a very fast move so you can dodge better. And if you don't dodge you'll probably make more Dark damage than Gengar!

I don't think so, Gyarados only have a fast move, Gengar have fast and charge and have a better attack base stat.

According to this site Gyarados's Bite is 16 DPS which is stronger than Gengars sucker punch (14.29) and is already almost as strong as dark pulse (16.86 DPS)
