Summary

TM82 (Dragontail) is a Technical Machine (TM) in the Pokémon series, used to teach Pokémon the move Dragontail. Dragontail is a Dragon-type move with the following effects and characteristics:

  • Move Type: Physical
  • Power: 60
  • Accuracy: 90%
  • PP (Power Points): 10 (max 16)
  • Effect: The target is hit with a tail attack, which not only deals damage but also forces the target to switch out with a random Pokémon from their team. In wild battles, it ends the battle against a single wild Pokémon by causing it to flee, unless the encounter is a horde battle. The move has a negative priority, meaning it will almost always go last in a turn unless the user has a higher priority move.

Interesting Facts:

  1. Strategic Use: Dragontail is a unique move due to its dual utility of dealing damage and forcing a switch.
