Guillotine (Japanese: ハサミギロチン Pincer Guillotine) is a Normal-type one-hit knockout move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I

Guillotine has 30% accuracy and inflicts damage equal to the target's current HP. Guillotine will break a substitute if it hits and can be countered for infinite damage when it does so.

Guillotine will not affect an opponent whose current Speed stat is greater than the user's current Speed stat.

Generation II

Unlike in Generation I, Guillotine can affect a Pokémon whose Speed stat is greater than the user's current Speed stat. However, it cannot affect a Pokémon of a higher level. The accuracy of Guillotine depends on the level of the user and the level of the target and is worked out with the formula 

Accuracy = ((level of user - level of target)*0.78 + 30)%.

Guillotine cannot be countered for infinite damage if it misses in Pokémon Stadium 2.

Generations III to VI

Guillotine's chance of hitting is now independent of accuracy and evasion stats; instead, it depends on the level of the user and the level of the target and is worked out with the formula 

Accuracy = ((level of user - level of target) + 30)%.

Guillotine can no longer be countered for infinite damage if it misses.

Guillotine can be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining two extra appeal points if the move Vice Grip was used in the prior turn. It is also part of a Contest Spectacular combination and will give three extra appeal points if one of the moves Lock-On, Mind Reader, or Miracle Eye was used in the prior turn.

Generation VII

Guillotine's accuracy is now displayed as 30%; however, its accuracy calculation remains unchanged.
