Sand Attack

Ground

Summary

Sand-Attack is a Ground-type move with no direct power and 100% accuracy. Instead of dealing damage, Sand-Attack lowers the target's accuracy by one stage, making it more likely for the opponent’s moves to miss. This makes Sand-Attack a strategic move often used to hinder opponents and gain an upper hand in battle. Despite its simplicity, it can be pivotal in prolonged battles where landing hits is crucial. Sand-Attack is commonly found on many early-game Pokémon, especially those that are Ground-type or live in desert environments.
