Effect Summary

Deals damage twice per use.

Detailed Effect

Double Kick deals damage twice for 30 power each.
Each strike of Double Kick is treated like a separate attack:
  • Each strike can get a critical hit stat img independently.
  • Abilities that activate on contact (Static, Weak Armor, Iron Barbs etc.) activate for each strike.
  • In Gen 1-3 Double Kick will end immediately if the first strike breaks a Substitute. Bide and Counter will only count for the second strike of this move.
  • If the user is holding a King's Rock item img, the final strike has a chance to cause the target to flinch status condition img.
  • In Gen 3-4 the chance to make the target flinch status condition img is equal across all hits for user's holding King's Rock item img or Razor Fang item img
  • If the Sturdy ability, Focus Sash item img, or Focus Band item img activates before the final hit, the subsequent hit will still deal damage and therefore cause the target to faint. (This is not the case in Gen 2-4)
  • In Gen 1 Multi-Strike attacks critical strike stat img is determined by the first instance of damage. If the first hit is a critical strike, the rest will also be.
