Move list

MoveTypeCategoryPowerAccuracyPPDescription
Aerial Ace60-20This move does not check accuracy.
Attract-10015Causes the target to become infatuated, making it unable to attack 50% of the time. Fails if both the user and the target are the same gender, if either is genderless, or if the target is already infatuated. The effect ends when either the user or the target is no longer active. Pokemon with the Oblivious Ability or protected by the Aroma Veil Ability are immune.
Bind158520Prevents the target from switching for four or five turns (seven turns if the user is holding Grip Claw). Causes damage to the target equal to 1/8 of its maximum HP (1/6 if the user is holding Binding Band), rounded down, at the end of each turn during effect. The target can still switch out if it is holding Shed Shell or uses Baton Pass, Flip Turn, Parting Shot, Shed Tail, Teleport, U-turn, or Volt Switch. The effect ends if either the user or the target leaves the field, or if the target uses Mortal Spin, Rapid Spin, or Substitute successfully. This effect is not stackable or reset by using this or another binding move.
Body Slam8510015Has a 30% chance to paralyze the target. Damage doubles and no accuracy check is done if the target has used Minimize while active.
Brick Break7510015If this attack does not miss, the effects of Reflect, Light Screen, and Aurora Veil end for the target's side of the field before damage is calculated.
Brutal Swing6010020No additional effect.
Bug Bite6010020If this move is successful and the user has not fainted, it steals the target's held Berry if it is holding one and eats it immediately, gaining its effects even if the user's item is being ignored. Items lost to this move cannot be regained with Recycle or the Harvest Ability.
Bulk Up--20Raises the user's Attack and Defense by 1 stage.
Bulldoze6010020Has a 100% chance to lower the target's Speed by 1 stage.
Circle Throw609010If both the user and the target have not fainted, the target is forced to switch out and be replaced with a random unfainted ally. This effect fails if the target is under the effect of Ingrain, has the Suction Cups Ability, or this move hit a substitute.
Close Combat1201005Lowers the user's Defense and Special Defense by 1 stage.
Detect--5The user is protected from most attacks made by other Pokemon during this turn. This move has a 1/X chance of being successful, where X starts at 1 and triples each time this move is successfully used. X resets to 1 if this move fails, if the user's last move used is not Baneful Bunker, Burning Bulwark, Detect, Endure, King's Shield, Max Guard, Obstruct, Protect, Quick Guard, Silk Trap, Spiky Shield, or Wide Guard, or if it was one of those moves and the user's protection was broken. Fails if the user moves last this turn.
Dig8010010This attack charges on the first turn and executes on the second. On the first turn, the user avoids all attacks other than Earthquake and Magnitude but takes double damage from them, and is also unaffected by weather. If the user is holding a Power Herb, the move completes in one turn.
Double Hit359010Hits twice. If the first hit breaks the target's substitute, it will take damage for the second hit.
Earthquake10010010Damage doubles if the target is using Dig.
Endure--10The user will survive attacks made by other Pokemon during this turn with at least 1 HP. This move has a 1/X chance of being successful, where X starts at 1 and triples each time this move is successfully used. X resets to 1 if this move fails, if the user's last move used is not Baneful Bunker, Burning Bulwark, Detect, Endure, King's Shield, Max Guard, Obstruct, Protect, Quick Guard, Silk Trap, Spiky Shield, or Wide Guard, or if it was one of those moves and the user's protection was broken. Fails if the user moves last this turn.
Facade7010020Power doubles if the user is burned, paralyzed, or poisoned. The physical damage halving effect from the user's burn is ignored.
Feint3010010If this move is successful, it breaks through the target's Baneful Bunker, Detect, King's Shield, Protect, or Spiky Shield for this turn, allowing other Pokemon to attack the target normally. If the target's side is protected by Crafty Shield, Mat Block, Quick Guard, or Wide Guard, that protection is also broken for this turn and other Pokemon may attack the target's side normally.
Flail-10015The power of this move is 20 if X is 33 to 48, 40 if X is 17 to 32, 80 if X is 10 to 16, 100 if X is 5 to 9, 150 if X is 2 to 4, and 200 if X is 0 or 1, where X is equal to (user's current HP × 48 / user's maximum HP), rounded down.
Fling-10010The power of this move is based on the user's held item. The held item is lost and it activates for the target if applicable. If there is no target or the target avoids this move by protecting itself, the user's held item is still lost. The user can regain a thrown item with Recycle or the Harvest Ability. Fails if the user has no held item, if the held item cannot be thrown, if the user is under the effect of Embargo or Magic Room, or if the user has the Klutz Ability.
Focus Blast120705Has a 10% chance to lower the target's Special Defense by 1 stage.
Focus Energy--20Raises the user's chance for a critical hit by 2 stages. Fails if the user already has the effect. Baton Pass can be used to transfer this effect to an ally.
Giga Impact150905If this move is successful, the user must recharge on the following turn and cannot select a move.
Guillotine-305Deals damage to the target equal to the target's maximum HP. Ignores accuracy and evasiveness modifiers. This attack's accuracy is equal to (user's level - target's level + 30)%, and fails if the target is at a higher level. Pokemon with the Sturdy Ability are immune.
Hard Press-10010Power is equal to 100 × (target's current HP / target's maximum HP), rounded half down, but not less than 1.
Helping Hand--20The power of the target's attack this turn is multiplied by 1.5 (this effect is stackable). Fails if there is no ally adjacent to the user or if the ally already moved this turn, but does not fail if the ally is using a two-turn move.
High Horsepower959510No additional effect.
Hyper Beam150905If this move is successful, the user must recharge on the following turn and cannot select a move.

X resets to 1 if this move fails, if the user's last move used is not Baneful Bunker, Burning Bulwark, Detect, Endure, King's Shield, Max Guard, Obstruct, Protect, Quick Guard, Silk Trap, Spiky Shield, or Wide Guard, or if it was one of those moves and the user's protection was broken. Fails if the user moves last this turn.
Quick Attack4010020No additional effect.
Rain Dance--5For 5 turns, the weather becomes Rain. The damage of Water-type attacks is multiplied by 1.5 and the damage of Fire-type attacks is multiplied by 0.5 during the effect. Lasts for 8 turns if the user is holding Damp Rock. Fails if the current weather is Rain.
Rest--5The user falls asleep for the next two turns and restores all of its HP, curing itself of any non-volatile status condition in the process. Fails if the user has full HP, is already asleep, or if another effect is preventing sleep.
Reversal-10015The power of this move is 20 if X is 33 to 48, 40 if X is 17 to 32, 80 if X is 10 to 16, 100 if X is 5 to 9, 150 if X is 2 to 4, and 200 if X is 0 or 1, where X is equal to (user's current HP × 48 / user's maximum HP), rounded down.
Rock Slide759010Has a 30% chance to make the target flinch.
Rock Tomb609515Has a 100% chance to lower the target's Speed by 1 stage.
Round6010015If there are other active Pokemon that chose this move for use this turn, those Pokemon take their turn immediately after the user, in Speed order, and this move's power is 120 for each other user.
Seismic Toss-10020Deals damage to the target equal to the user's level.
Slash8010020Has a higher chance for a critical hit.
Sleep Talk--10One of the user's known moves, besides this move, is selected for use at random. Fails if the user is not asleep. The selected move does not have PP deducted from it, and can currently have 0 PP. This move cannot select Assist, Beak Blast, Belch, Bide, Blazing Torque, Celebrate, Chatter, Combat Torque, Copycat, Dynamax Cannon, Focus Punch, Hold Hands, Magical Torque, Me First, Metronome, Mimic, Mirror Move, Nature Power, Noxious Torque, Shell Trap, Sketch, Sleep Talk, Struggle, Uproar, Wicked Torque, or any two-turn move.
Snore5010015Has a 30% chance to make the target flinch. Fails if the user is not asleep.
Stealth Rock--20Sets up a hazard on the opposing side of the field, damaging each opposing Pokemon that switches in. Fails if the effect is already active on the opposing side. Foes lose 1/32, 1/16, 1/8, 1/4, or 1/2 of their maximum HP, rounded down, based on their weakness to the Rock type; 0.25×, 0.5×, neutral, 2×, or 4×, respectively. Can be removed from the opposing side if any Pokemon uses Tidy Up, or if any opposing Pokemon uses Mortal Spin, Rapid Spin, or Defog successfully, or is hit by Defog.
Stone Edge100805Has a higher chance for a critical hit.
Storm Throw6010010This move is always a critical hit unless the target is under the effect of Lucky Chant or has the Battle Armor or Shell Armor Abilities.
Substitute--10The user takes 1/4 of its maximum HP, rounded down, and puts it into a substitute to take its place in battle. The substitute is removed once enough damage is inflicted on it, if the user switches out or faints, or if any Pokemon uses Tidy Up. Baton Pass can be used to transfer the substitute to an ally, and the substitute will keep its remaining HP. Until the substitute is broken, it receives damage from all attacks made by other Pokemon and shields the user from status effects and stat stage changes caused by other Pokemon. Sound-based moves and Pokemon with the Infiltrator Ability ignore substitutes. The user still takes normal damage from weather and status effects while behind its substitute. If the substitute breaks during a multi-hit attack, the user will take damage from any remaining hits. If a substitute is created while the user is trapped by a binding move, the binding effect ends immediately. Fails if the user does not have enough HP remaining to create a substitute without fainting, or if it already has a substitute.
Sunny Day--5For 5 turns, the weather becomes Sun. The damage of Fire-type attacks is multiplied by 1.5 and the damage of Water-type attacks is multiplied by 0.5 during the effect. Lasts for 8 turns if the user is holding Heat Rock. Fails if the current weather is Sun.
Superpower1201005Lowers the user's Attack and Defense by 1 stage.
Swords Dance--20Raises the user's Attack by 2 stages.
Thief6010020If this attack was successful and the user has not fainted, it steals the target's held item if the user is not holding one. A target with the Sticky Hold Ability does not lose its held item if it has not fainted. The target's item is not stolen if it is a Blue Orb, Red Orb, Adamant Crystal, Lustrous Globe, Griseous Core, Plate, Drive, Memory, Rusted Sword, Rusted Shield, Booster Energy, or Mask held by a Kyogre, Groudon, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Arceus, Genesect, Silvally, Zacian, Zamazenta, Paradox Pokemon, or Ogerpon, respectively, or if the user is one of those species and the target is holding the respective item. In this case, Paradox Pokemon include every species with the Protosynthesis and Quark Drive Abilities, except Gouging Fire, Raging Bolt, Iron Boulder, and Iron Crown. Items lost to this move cannot be regained with Recycle or the Harvest Ability.
Thrash12010010The user spends two or three turns locked into this move and becomes confused immediately after its move on the last turn of the effect if it is not already. This move targets an opposing Pokemon at random on each turn. If the user is prevented from moving, is asleep at the beginning of a turn, or the attack is not successful against the target on the first turn of the effect or the second turn of a three-turn effect, the effect ends without causing confusion. If this move is called by Sleep Talk and the user is asleep, the move is used for one turn and does not confuse the user.
Throat Chop8010015For 2 turns, the target cannot use sound-based moves.
X-Scissor8010015No additional effect.
