Waterfall Move Detail
Waterfall is a Water-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. It has a 20% chance of causing the target to flinch, which can prevent the opponent from acting on that turn. Introduced in Generation I, Waterfall has been a staple move for many Water-type Pokémon, both for its solid offensive capabilities and utility in battle. Notably, Waterfall can also be used outside of battle to navigate waterfalls, making it an essential move for progression in certain Pokémon games. Its combination of power, accuracy, and the additional flinch chance makes Waterfall a versatile and frequently used move in various strategies.
