Low Kick is a Fighting-type move with variable power and 100% accuracy. The power of Low Kick depends on the weight of the target, ranging from 20 to 120 base power—the heavier the target, the stronger the move. This makes it especially effective against heavier Pokémon such as Rock-, Steel-, and some Normal-type Pokémon. Low Kick does not have any additional effects like causing status conditions, but its utility lies in its effectiveness against bulky opponents. It is a staple in competitive play for dealing with high-weight threats.
