Liquidation Move Detail

Liquidation is a Water-type move with 85 power and 100% accuracy. It has a 20% chance of lowering the target's Defense by one stage. Introduced in Generation VII, Liquidation is often favored for its solid power and the useful secondary effect of potentially reducing the opponent's Defense, making it easier to deal more damage in subsequent turns. This move is particularly effective on physical Water-type attackers and can be found in the move pools of various aquatic Pokémon. Its combination of reliability and utility makes it a popular choice in both competitive and casual play.
