Cross Poison is a Poison-type move with 70 power and 100% accuracy. It has a high critical hit ratio, making it more likely to land critical hits compared to other moves. Additionally, Cross Poison has a 10% chance of poisoning the target. This move is notable for its combination of reliable accuracy, decent power, and the potential for both status effect and critical hits. It is especially effective against Grass- and Fairy-type opponents, thanks to its Poison typing. In competitive play, Cross Poison is often used by Pokémon that benefit from dealing status effects or are built to take advantage of critical hit mechanics.
