Trivia

• Bite is one of the four moves to have its type changed in Generation II, the others being Gust, Karate Chop, and Sand-Attack. Coincidentally, they all were Template:Type2 moves in Generation I. Bite is also the only move that was changed to a type introduced in Generation II.
• Bite is also the only move to have its damage category change from physical to special, then back to physical again. This is due to the move being Template:Type2 in Generation I, Template:Type2 in Generation II and III, and classified as a physical move in Generation IV.
• If Secret Power is used in a cave in Generation III, it will have the same animation as Bite.
