Swagger is a Normal-type status move with 85% accuracy. It sharply raises the target's Attack stat by two stages but also confuses the target. The confusion can cause the target to hurt itself in its confusion, potentially turning its increased Attack against it. Swagger has no power as it does not deal direct damage. This move is often used strategically to disrupt opponents, as the high confusion damage combined with boosted Attack can be quite effective. Swagger is popular in both casual and competitive play for its potential to create advantageous situations, though its lower accuracy can make it somewhat unpredictable.
