Bite deals damage and has a 30% chance of causing the target to flinch (if the target has not yet moved).
In Generation I there was no Dark type, so Bite was classified as Normal type. It was a physical move.
In Generation II, Bite's type was changed to the newly-introduced Dark type. Due to the type-based categorization of moves, it became a special move until Generation IV when it was returned to the physical category.
