Lunge

Bug

Summary

Lunge is a Bug-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. In addition to dealing damage, Lunge lowers the target's Attack stat by one stage, making it an excellent choice for weakening physical attackers. This dual utility of dealing solid damage while also debuffing the opponent's offensive capabilities makes Lunge a popular choice in both casual and competitive play. Introduced in Generation VII, Lunge provides Bug-type Pokémon with a valuable tool for both offense and defense.
