Would it be okay to list this as a variant of Boo instead of Dark Boo? The reason it's called Dark Dark Boo instead of Dark Boo is because Dark Boos are already a thing in the game, after all. Blinker (talk) 17:09, January 17, 2024 (EST)
- From what I gather, they use the flip to sneak up on you, which normal Boo doesn't but Dark Boo does. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:11, January 17, 2024 (EST)
- That's true, but it seems the Flopside "Dark" variants of enemies sometimes(?) have the attack patterns of harder versions of those enemies. That was an overly long sentence. Here's an example: Dark Squiglets spit projectiles despite regular Squiglets not doing so. There's also the Dark Cherbil, which acts as a mix of all three normal Cherbil types, and Dark Pokey, which can inflict poison like Poison Pokeys. Blinker (talk) 17:21, January 17, 2024 (EST)
- I think it would be a bit confusing if we were to say it's a variant of the standard Boo when this behaves like Dark Boos instead of standard Boos and the name follows Dark Boo.
