Description
Deals 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. Each hit has a 20% chance to poison the target. This gives an overall chance to poison the target of 36%. 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, 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.
