Sacred Sword

Summary

Sacred Sword is a Fighting-type move with 90 power and 100% accuracy. It ignores the target's stat changes when calculating damage, making it particularly useful against opponents that have boosted their defense or evasion. Sacred Sword is a signature move of several Legendary Pokémon like the Swords of Justice (Cobalion, Terrakion, Virizion, and Keldeo).
