Change your preferences here. Bonemerang
DescriptionDeals damage and always hits twice unless the opponent is KOed by the first hit. Each hit is treated as a separate attack, and thus abilities such as Weak Armor will activate twice, and this move can KO through Focus Sash and Sturdy. If the first hit breaks a Substitute, the attack will continue to damage the target. Each hit has a separate flinch rate if used with King's Rock or Stench, and a separate critical hit chance. If the opponent holds a type-resistance Berry item, it will only affect the first hit of this move. However, the items Life Orb and Metronome treat both hits as a single attack, and Color Change will only activate on the second hit of the move. Although a physical move, this move does not make contact with the opponent. Competitive UseBonemerang is a very decent move, though it is almost never seen as it is only learnt by Smeargle and the rare Marowak. Even then, Earthquake is generally preferred as a Ground-type attack due to its superior accuracy, though Bonemerang is certainly useful for breaking through Substitutes, as well as Focus Sash and Sturdy.
