Move
Talk3this wiki
Added by Gengarblood3A Move is a technique that Pokémon use during Battle. Moves are mainly used to inflict damage on the opponent. Moves usually come from a natural ability that the specific Pokémon has. Some moves can be used both inside and outside of battle. When outside of battle, moves are usually used for transportation or for removing a certain obstacle that occurs in the game. There are three types of moves; Physical, Special, and Status. Each type holds a different kind of effect when used.
Furthermore, all Pokémon moves have an elemental type associated with them. Depending on the type of Pokémon one faces, this can make a move "super-effective", "not very effective" or have "no effect" at all.
