Barrage Move Detail
Barrage is a Normal-type move with variable power depending on the number of hits it lands, each hit having a base power of 15. It has 85% accuracy. Barrage strikes the target 2-5 times in one turn, with a 37.5% chance to hit 2 or 3 times, a 12.5% chance to hit 4 times, and a 12.5% chance to hit 5 times. This move is one of the signature moves of the Pokémon Exeggcute and Exeggutor. While its base power for each hit is relatively low, the potential to hit multiple times can accumulate significant damage. However, due to its relatively low accuracy and inconsistent damage output, it is not commonly used in competitive play.
