Scald is a Water-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. It has a 30% chance of burning the target, which can significantly reduce the target's physical attack power. Scald is notable for its unique combination of being able to inflict burn while being a Water-type move, making it a valuable option for both offensive and defensive strategies. This move is widely used for its reliability and versatility, often seen in both casual and competitive battles. Since its introduction in Generation V, Scald has become a staple for many Water-type Pokémon due to its potential to provide both damage and status condition advantage.
