Zen Headbutt
PsychicSummary
Zen Headbutt is a Psychic-type move with 80 power and 90% accuracy. It has a 20% chance of causing the target to flinch, which can prevent the opponent from acting during their turn. Zen Headbutt is a physical attack, making it particularly useful for Pokémon with high Attack stats. Introduced in Generation IV, it provides good coverage for physical attackers who need a reliable Psychic-type move to handle Fighting- and Poison-type foes. Despite its slightly lower accuracy, its potential to cause flinching adds a strategic element, making it a favorite among many trainers.
