Dark pans absorb heat, shiny ones reflect it.
We generally see a smooth, shiny finish left on cookware so that food will be less likely to stick and so that it can be cleaned more easily. Certainly we encounter a lot of coatings on pans (like Teflon) to reduce food sticking, and some of these coatings are not smooth at all. But the metal pans work better when they present a smooth surface to the food. Food cannot "get into" irregularities on the cooking surface of the pan if it is nice and shiny (which is to say smooth and flat).
No, most chefs do not use pancake pans to make pancakes. They use a simple griddle for making pancakes!

Aluminium metal is shiny. However, it is a very reactive metal with oxygen (air). So if a piece is cut in the lab. you may briefly, (a second or two) see a shiny metal. It then rapidly oxides to form the impervious layer of aluminium oxide , which is dull in appearance. So domestic aluminium pots and pans , whilst made of aluminium, the surface that you see is actually aluminium oxide(dull).
Metals are used to create pans because they are excellent conductors, and the heat will be transferred quickly to whatever you are cooking.

When copper was fiirst discovered it was used to make pots and pans for cooking. Now copper is no longer used to make pans/pots as there are more efficient materials and copper is now mainly used to make wires.
