Throat-Chop Move Detail

Throat Chop is a Dark-type move introduced in Generation VII with 80 power and 100% accuracy. It not only deals damage but also prevents the target from using any sound-based moves for two turns. This includes moves like Hyper Voice, Roar, and Sing. Throat Chop is particularly useful for disrupting opponents who rely on sound-based strategies, making it a strategic move in both casual and competitive battles.
