List of moves

There are three different types of attacks; physical, status, and special.

Contents

[edit] Physical

A physical move is one in which the user uses its physical strength in order to damage its foes. Damage dealt by a physical move depends on both the Attack stat of the attacking Pokémon and the Defense stat of the defending Pokémon. It is notable that while most physical moves contact their target(s), physical and contacting moves are not the same: an example is Earthquake, which, despite being physical, does not require that the user make contact with the target.

Before Generation IV, damaging moves of the following elemental types are physical moves:

In Generation IV most damaging moves of the preceding types are Physical moves, and most Dark moves are also physical. Also, damaging Ice moves are evenly split between physical and special.

[edit] Status

A status move is a move that, in the Pokémon games, does no direct damage, but instead causes a weather condition, status effect, or raises or lowers the Statistics of a Pokémon during battle. This includes also other attacks which cannot be categorized under physical moves and special moves because of their unique or nearly-unique effects, such as Destiny Bond, Splash, and Recover.

The majority of Normal and Psychic moves as well as the move that was the only Unknown move prior to being classified as a Ghost-Type move for Generation V, Curse, are in this category. Very few moves of most other types are status moves: the Dragon type only features one status move, while types such as Fire, Fighting, and Steel only feature two status moves each.

[edit] Special

A special move is one in which the user does not necessarily have to make contact with its opponent in order to deal damage. In Generation I, special moves cause damage as a function of the Special stats of the two battling Pokémon. In Generation II and Generation III, special moves deal damage as a function of the Special Attack stat of the attacking Pokémon and the Special Defense stat of the defending Pokémon. It is notable that while most special moves do not contact their target(s), special and non-contacting moves are not the same: an example is Grass Knot, which, despite being special, requires that the user make contact with the target.

Before Generation IV, damaging moves of the following types are special moves:

In Generation IV most damaging moves of the preceding types are special moves, except for Dark, which has only one special move (Dark Pulse), and Ice which is evenly split between physical and special.
