False Swipe is a Normal-type move with 40 power and 100% accuracy. Its unique effect ensures that it will never knock out an opponent, leaving the target with at least 1 HP. This makes False Swipe invaluable for catching wild Pokémon, as it allows the player to weaken their target without the risk of making it faint. False Swipe is often used by trainers who focus on capturing Pokémon, especially when hunting for rare or elusive species. Though its power is relatively low, its specialized purpose makes it an essential move in many trainers’ arsenals.
