Summary

Brittle-Bones is a held item introduced in the Pokémon series. When a Pokémon holding Brittle-Bones suffers a physical attack, the attacker takes some recoil damage, effectively causing them to lose health as a consequence of their aggression. However, holding Brittle-Bones also has a significant drawback; if the holder uses a physical attack, they too will take recoil damage.

This dual-sided effect makes Brittle-Bones a strategic item that can be used to dissuade physical attackers or to turn the tide in battles where sustainability and chip damage matter. It is particularly useful on Pokémon that possess the defensive bulk to withstand physical assaults but aren't necessarily reliant on their own physical moves.

Some interesting facts about Brittle-Bones include:

  1. Competitive Play: In competitive play, Brittle-Bones is a double-edged sword. It has niche applications on physically fragile teams looking to deter powerful physical sweepers. It's not as commonly used as more straightforward items like Leftovers
