Psyshock Move Detail
Psyshock is a Psychic-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. Unlike most special moves, Psyshock targets the opponent's physical defense rather than their special defense, making it a unique and strategic option for overcoming specially bulky opponents. This dual nature allows users to exploit weaknesses in the opponent's defensive stats, providing versatility in both casual and competitive battles. Psyshock has a PP (Power Points) of 10, and it can be learned by a variety of Psychic-type Pokémon, making it a widely accessible and popular move within the game.
