Slash

Normal

Summary

Slash is a Normal-type move with 70 power and 100% accuracy. It has a high critical-hit ratio, making it more likely to land a critical hit compared to other moves. Slash is notable for its potential to deal significant damage through these critical hits, despite its moderate base power. This makes it a useful move for many Pokémon, especially those with higher Speed stats that can take advantage of the increased critical-hit chance. It is a physical attack and has been included in the moveset of numerous Pokémon since its introduction in Generation I.
