Let's have a look at Sableye under a microscope.

As shown on the left, Sableye's base stats, which would be the species-specific, static values upon which all individual-specific modifiers such as Natures and EV distribution have effect. Actually, it's not as complicated as it sounds - just consider these stats as a general outline of a species' battling potential. Sableye's base stats are anything but incredible - if something, they're on the low side of the spectrum; consider that a base stat is considered only average when it ranges from 75 to 85 in generation third and from 80 to 95 in generation four.
Abilities
Keen Eye
In generation third, Sableye only had one Ability: Keen Eye, which prevents its Accuracy to be lowered via moves such as Sand-Attack or Flash. A pretty useless Ability if you ask me, since the number of Accuracy-lowering moves is very limited and it's not like you can't just switch out to solve your problem. The only case in which I can see this Ability becoming useful in battle is the situation in which an opponent Pokémon has used a trapping move and is going to lower your Accuracy so that you'll eventually have a very low chance of being able to attack, but no in-game Trainer would ever use such a strategy and a human player would have to be retarded to do that - if you're going to be cheap, you can just raise your Evasion for a similar effect without having to use a trapping move.
The only positive thing about Keen Eye is that, from Pokémon Emerald onwards, if you put a Sableye with Keen Eye as the first Pokémon in your team, you will have a lower chance to meet low-level wild Pokémon. Good if you want to make some experience or if you're looking for something to catch.
Stall
In generation four, Sableye is a dual-Ability Pokémon: it can have either Keen Eye or Stall. Sableye is currently the only Pokémon to have Stall as one of their possible Abilities. Is it something like Milotic's Marvel Scale? Sure we'd like so. Stall is one of the worst Abilities ever conceived, on par with Slaking's Truant - with the only exception that Slaking is still strong even with his hindering Ability, while Sableye...well...Anyway, what Stall does is making Sableye move last. To be honest, its Speed is already so low that, even without Stall, it would anyway be slower than its opponent in most cases.
However, Stall does not affect Sableye's Speed, but rather its priority bracket; this means that when a Sableye with Stall uses a move with the same priority as the move chosen by its opponent in the same turn, Sableye's move will be performed after its opponent's no matter what. To make some further examples, this also means that if Sableye uses a high-priority move such as Shadow Sneak and its opponent uses a normal-priority move, then Sableye will attack first because the moves chosen in that turn have different priorities. If Sableye was using Shadow Sneak and its opponent Quick Attack, here is where Stall would come into play as these moves have the same priority.
Since Stall has no effect on Speed, this also means that Trick Room will do nothing on a Sableye with Stall. However, the items Lagging Tail and Full Incense still have their effect; if Sableye's opponent is holding one of these items, it will be slower than Sableye even with Stall.
So. What is the point of Stall? Sending you into a flying rage when trying to breed a Sableye because the one hatchling with good stats will also have this stupid Ability (true story). However, there are two cases in which Stall will prove beneficial.
One of them is combining it with the use of Zoom Lens as Sableye's held item, as Zoom Lens will grant Sableye a x1.2 Accuracy boost provided it attacks last. It would be really useful if Sableye learnt some powerful, low-Accuracy moves - but that's not the case, so why bother. The other use is in combination with the move Trick to give the opponent the aforementioned Lagging Tail or Full Incense, which would allow Sableye to become faster than its opponent. This is actually a good idea, so if you want to use a Sableye with Stall you should consider this strategy.
Okay, so in generation five there is this feature called the Dream World where you can unlock a special Ability for each species of Pokémon! Sableye's secret Ability is Prankster, which raises the priority of its status moves. Take what I wrote before about Stall and priority brackets and think about what this means...in layman's terms, Prankster overrides Sabby's crappy Speed stat and allows to (usually) strike first with non-damaging moves, which are the meat of its moveset. This means awesomefest! It doesn't matter if Sableye is fighting a lightning-fast Jolteon, its status moves will hit first anyway. Unlimited speed! Did you know that this Ability alone turns Sableye into a small powerhouse?
Type matchup
Sableye's strongest point is its awesome type combination that grants it no weaknesses. If that's not sweet enough, then know that it also gives it a resistance to Poison-type moves and three full immunities to Fighting-, Normal- and Psychic-type moves. Three immunities. There is no known Pokémon with more immunities than Sableye, and this characteristic is shared only with its fellow Dark/Ghost Spiritomb plus Drifloon and Drifblim. Prior to generation four, Sableye used to be THE Pokémon with the highest number of immunities and it didn't have to share its first place with no one. Badass.
Breeding
So you must know that, for two Pokémon to breed, they must belong to the same egg group. Most Ghost-type Pokémon are in the Indeterminate egg group, which mostly includes amorphous-looking Pokémon. Sableye is one of the three Ghost-type Pokémon which doesn't, the other two being Shedinja and Froslass. Since it seems to look more like a goblin or some human-like creature, it is in the Humanshape group. For your information, a Sableye egg takes around 6,400 steps to hatch.
Happiness
When first caught, a Sableye isn't really friendly to its Trainer - its base happiness value is only 35 out of a maximum of 255. Don't worry, it will warm up later if treated properly; the low initial trust is a common trait of Dark-type Pokémon. They don't just fall in love with the first guy to pick them up, you know.
Growth curve
At level 100, a Sableye will have earned a total of 1,059,860 experience points. A Sableye's growth follows a parabolic curve; in the beginning it will be incredibly easy to raise and it will grow faster than Pokémon which need a lot less experience to reach level 100, in the middle it will grow at a normal rate, and in the last levels it will take a wagon of experience to level up. You better save up those Rare Candies.
Movepool
This page wouldn't be complete if I didn't talk about the techniques learned by Sableye. However, we know that every Pokémon learns hundreds and hundreds of moves through different generation. So, to keep this page rich in information but easy to the eyes, by default this list only shows the names of the moves learned; however, you can hover over a move's name to display some additional information about it.
