Pound (Japanese: はたく Pound) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Pound inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.

Pound is affected by King's Rock in all generations other than Generation IV.

In Generation III, Pound can be used as the first move of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing DoubleSlap, Faint Attack, and Slam to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn.

Super Smash Bros. series

Pound is Jigglypuff's neutral special in Super Smash Bros. and its side special from Super Smash Bros. Melee onwards. It is mainly used as an alternate recovery move, since its up special, Sing, does not help Jigglypuff recover. The move does extra shield damage and can thus be used to easily break shields.
