Shadow and Dark[edit]

A while back I had the idea of moving the information for this monster into the Dark Skeleton page. It made sense because they're both essentially the same creature by terms of appearance, but I never went through with it. Any additional thoughts, here? Does anyone else think these guys could be the same monster? --PantheonSasuke 23:18, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

I vote for merging them. They look the same and I think it will be more confusing if they are separate than if they are together. Is Dark Skeleton the more recent localization? --Pagoda 00:58, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
Yep, Dark Skeleton is one of the enemies from the shockingly original World of Darkness</sarcasm> in Dragon Quest VIII. I don't think it has much in common with this monster besides being a black palette swap of a Skeleton and not appearing until the latter portions of the game (it's hard to forget Shadow Skeletons when they won't f***ing stop dodging your attacks. I certainly don't remember anything like that with the Dark Skeletons). I still think it'd probably be better to keep this two as one n' such. --PantheonSasuke 03:12, February 23, 2010 (UTC)
