Strength

Normal

Summary

Strength is a Normal-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. It does not have any additional effects beyond dealing damage. Strength is often used outside of battles as well, especially in the Pokémon games, where it is used as a Hidden Machine (HM) to move large boulders, allowing players to solve puzzles and access new areas. While it might not be a staple in competitive play due to the lack of added effects and its relatively lower power compared to other physical attacks, Strength is valued for its utility in-game and its solid, dependable damage output in casual play.
