Ground Gem

Ground Gem is a single-use held item in the Pokémon series that boosts the power of a Ground-type move by 1.5x when used. The effect is consumed after the move is executed, meaning the Ground Gem provides a one-time power increase before becoming inactive for the remainder of the battle.

Ground Gems are part of a larger family of type-specific Gems introduced in Pokémon Black and White. Each Gem type enhances moves corresponding to its elemental category, making them strategically valuable in competitive play for optimizing damage output at crucial moments. Ground Gem, in particular, finds its utility in amplifying high-damage Ground-type moves such as Earthquake or Earth Power, potentially turning the tide of battle with a well-timed attack.

The strategic use of Ground Gem can catch opponents off guard, especially in formats where item predictions are pivotal. It is often utilized in combination with Pokémon having the Ground type as their primary or secondary type to maximize the damage impact. Pokémon like Garchomp, Excadrill
