Metal-Claw Move Detail
Metal Claw is a Steel-type move with 50 power and 95% accuracy. It has a 10% chance to increase the user's Attack stat by one stage when it hits the target. Metal Claw is often one of the earlier Steel-type moves that Pokémon learn, making it useful in the early to mid stages of battles. Despite its relatively low power, the potential to boost the user's Attack can make it a valuable asset in prolonged battles. First introduced in Generation II, it has since been a staple move for many Steel-type Pokémon, offering both offensive capability and the chance to enhance physical attacks further.
