Toxic

Poison

Summary

Toxic is a Poison-type status move with 0 power and 90% accuracy. Instead of dealing direct damage, Toxic badly poisons the target, causing increasing damage over time. Specifically, the damage starts at 1/16 of the target’s maximum HP and doubles every turn. Toxic is widely used for its ability to wear down bulky opponents and is often a staple in stall and defensive strategies. Notably, when used by a Poison-type Pokémon, Toxic's accuracy becomes 100%. It is also one of the few moves that can affect Steel-type Pokémon when used by a Pokémon with the Corrosion ability.
