Knock Off is a Dark-type move with 65 power and 100% accuracy. What makes Knock Off particularly interesting and versatile in competitive play is its secondary effect: it removes the held item of the target. If the target is holding an item, the power of Knock Off increases to 97.5. This feature can heavily disrupt opponents' strategies by eliminating crucial items such as Leftovers, Choice items, or Eviolite. Knock Off is widely used in competitive battles due to its utility and consistent damage output, making it a staple on many teams.
