Change your preferences here. Eruption
DescriptionDeals damage, but does less damage as the user's HP decreases. Base Power is calculated thus: Base Power = 150 * (User's Current HP / User's Maximum HP) In a double or triple battle, this move will hit all opposing Pokemon adjacent to the user. If it hits multiple Pokemon in this way, its Base Power is reduced to 75% of its usual power. Attacks on multiple Pokemon are considered separate attacks, so the move may hit one Pokemon but fail to hit another. Competitive UseEruption has little competitive use. Not only are five out of the seven Pokemon who receive this move weak to Stealth Rock, all of them take full damage from Spikes and Toxic Spikes, so Eruption's Base Power will be lowered substantially when they switch in to begin with. Furthermore, Camerupt and Heatran have low base Speed, and if they takes damage before they can use Eruption, they are better off using Fire Blast or Overheat. Groudon does not receive STAB on Eruption, and moreover only has base 100 Special Attack to use it with, which is too low by Uber standards. Related MovesWater Spout is a Water-type equivalent.
