Triple Kick
Effect Summary
Hits three times, increasing power by 100% with each successful hit.
Detailed Effect
Triple Kick deals damage and will strike three times, with each kick's power increasing by 10 for a total of 60 power.
Each hit has its own accuracy
check, and if one kick misses, the move ends.
The table below shows how likely each amount of kicks is with no accuracy
and
evasion
modifiers:
When accounting for all variations (including missing), Triple Kick's effective power is 47.07
Each strike of Triple Kick is treated like a separate attack:
will cause Triple Kick to only make an
accuracy
check once.
If it the first strike hits, all others will as well.
Each hit has its own accuracy
The table below shows how likely each amount of kicks is with no accuracy
Amount of kicks | Chance for that amount | Total power |
---|---|---|
0 | 10% | 0 |
1 | 9% | 10 |
2 | 8.1% | 30 |
3 | 72.9% | 60 |
Each strike of Triple Kick is treated like a separate attack:
- Each strike can get a critical hit independently.
- Abilities that activate on contact (Static, Weak Armor, Iron Barbs etc.) activate for each strike.
- If the Sturdy ability,
Focus Sash
, or Focus Band
activates before the final hit, the subsequent hit will still deal damage and therefore cause the target to faint.
- If the first hit breaks a Substitute, the second hit will deal damage to the target Pokémon.
- The move Counter only counters the final hit, but Bide counters the complete damage.
- If the user is holding a
King's Rock
or a Razor Fang
each strike has an equal chance to cause the target to flinch
- If the target is wearing a
Rocky Helmet
each strike will damage the user.
If it the first strike hits, all others will as well.
- In Gen 2-3 Triple Kick immediately ends after breaking a Substitute
- In Gen 2-4 if
Focus Sash
, or Focus Band
activates before the final hit, the subsequent hit will not cause the target to faint.
