The moon appears to shake in the sky due to atmospheric turbulence, which can distort the light passing through the Earth's atmosphere. This can cause the moon to shimmer or appear to wobble, especially when it is low on the horizon. It is a common optical illusion and not a physical movement of the moon itself.

When the moon comes out does the sky turn apsulootly dark?

No, the moon comes out at a much earlier time then when the sky turns dark. This is due to the orbit of the moon. The moon is visible in the sky during the day. So, no the sky does not turn absolutely dark when the moon comes out. If it did, then we would have extremely long nights.
