Explosion (Japanese だいばくはつ Giant Explosion) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It is currently the most powerful move in terms of its base power. It was TM47 in Generation I before losing its TM status in Generation II. It regained its TM status, albeit as TM64, in Generation IV onwards.
Effect
Generation I
Explosion inflicts damage, and causes the user to faint. Though its power is listed as 170, the target's Defense will be halved during damage calculation (unless it is at a value of 1), effectively doubling the power to 340.
If Explosion breaks a target's substitute, the user will not faint, though its image will be replaced by a blank image. Additionally, if the user of Explosion had a substitute at the time of such a situation, uses Substitute later, or switches out, its regular image will once again become visible.
If the user of Explosion attacks first and faints itself, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round.
In Stadium, if Explosion breaks a target's substitute, the user will faint. The base power listed in Stadium is the one after halving Defense, i.e. 340.
Generation II
Explosion's power is increased to 250. The target's Defense is still halved, effectively doubling the power to 500.
If Explosion is used against a substitute, a Ghost type, or a Pokémon that has used Protect or Detect, the user will still faint.
Unlike in the previous game, Stadium 2 lists Explosion's power before halving Defense.
The Focus Band won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generations III and IV
Explosion cannot be used when a Pokémon with the Ability Damp is on the field. The user's sprite no longer disappears upon using the move.
The Focus Sash won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generation V
Explosion no longer halves the target's Defense. The user faints before dealing damage, unlike in previous generations.
Sturdy won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generation VI
Explosion returns to damaging the target before the user faints.

In other games
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
Explosion does not cause the user to faint, but instead cuts its HP in half, and affects all Pokémon, items, and walls within 2 tiles of the user, reducing HP by half on teammates, by 80 on hostile Pokémon, and destroying all walls, items, and special tiles. Explosion cannot be used in rain or on any floor with a Pokémon with the Ability Damp. Additionally, Fire-type Pokémon take only 50% of usual damage.
In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, Explosion is a Status move. It only activates if the Pokémon is attacked. It also destroys all items on the floor if activated.

Trivia
- In Generation I, if Self-Destruct or Explosion causes the player to win and lose at the same time, the player blacks out as normal, but the victory music plays.
- All Pokémon that can have the Ability Aftermath can learn Explosion.
- Self-Destruct and Explosion are the only two damaging moves whose battle animations play out in the main series even if they would miss or have no effect.
- If Explosion is used for the Z-Move Breakneck Blitz, it would lower the power of the move rather then increase it.
