Mud-Slap is a Ground-type move with 20 power and 100% accuracy. It has an additional effect of lowering the target's accuracy by one stage every time it hits. Though its power is relatively low, Mud-Slap's utility in potentially causing the opponent to miss their next attacks makes it a strategic move in battles, particularly useful in the early stages of the game or when battling wild Pokémon. It can be learned by a wide variety of Pokémon and is often used to gain an edge by disrupting the opponent’s strategy.
