Tm139

TM139 is a Technical Machine (TM) used to teach Pokémon the move “Toxic.” Toxic is a non-damaging Poison-type move that inflicts the Poison status condition on the target. Unlike regular Poison, the damage from Toxic increases over time, starting with 1/16th of the target's max HP and then increasing by 1/16th each turn. This makes it particularly effective in stalling strategies, where a Pokémon's main objective is to outlast its opponent rather than deal quick damage.

Effects: TM139 allows the user to learn Toxic, which has an accuracy of 90% and no other secondary effects. Poison-type Pokémon always hit their target with Toxic if used, regardless of accuracy, because of their affinity with the Poison status. This move is essential in many competitive battles for breaking down defensive walls and putting pressure on opponents who rely on healing and status moves.

Interesting Facts: - Toxic was traditionally the TM06 in many earlier
