Sketch Move Detail
Sketch is a Normal-type move with 0 power and 0% accuracy, as it doesn't deal damage directly. It allows the user to permanently learn the last move used by the target, replacing Sketch in the process. This move is unique to Smeargle, which can use Sketch to acquire any move in the game, making it an extremely versatile Pokémon. Sketch can be used multiple times, granting Smeargle the ability to build a custom moveset tailored to various situations, which is especially valuable in competitive play. Smeargle learns Sketch starting at level 1 and continues to learn Sketch every ten levels (11, 21, 31, etc.).
