Vice-Grip Move Detail

Vice-Grip is a Normal-type move with 55 power and 100% accuracy. It is a physical attack where the user grips the target tightly, inflicting damage. While Vice-Grip does not have any additional effects or secondary effects like status ailments, it's an early-game move that many Pokémon can learn, making it a staple for Pokémon just starting their journey. Despite its lower power in comparison to other moves obtained later in the game, Vice-Grip’s perfect accuracy ensures it reliably lands hits.
