DescriptionDeals damage and has a 20% chance to flinch the target. Competitive UseAt first glance, Dragon Rush is a viable alternative over Dragon Claw; however, it suffers from bad distribution and terrible accuracy. While Hone Claws can be used to patch up the latter drawback, using Dragon Dance or Swords Dance with Dragon Claw are almost always better options, the former raising Attack and Speed simultaneously, while the latter instantly doubles the user's Attack (a +2 Dragon Claw is stronger than a +1 Dragon Rush). Related MovesOutrage is stronger and far more accurate, despite locking in the user for 2 to 3 turns. Dragon Claw is weaker but also more accurate, and therefore more consistent. Dragon Tail has a significantly lower Base Power, but forces the target out. Dual Chop has essentially 80 Base Power but higher accuracy, and strikes in two hits. Hyper Fang is a Normal-type equivalent, with lower flinch rate and Base Power. Waterfall is a Water-type equivalent, but with lower Base Power and higher accuracy. Iron Head is a Steel-type equivalent, but with lower Base Power and higher accuracy. Zen Headbutt is a Psychic-type equivalent, but with lower Base Power and higher accuracy. Dark Pulse is a special Dark-type equivalent, but with lower Base Power and higher accuracy. |
