Category:Moves with a charging turn

These are moves that take two turns to complete. On the first turn, the user charges (sometimes causing some effect such as becoming semi-invulnerable or raising a stat). On the second turn, the user executes the move fully. All of these moves, except Sky Drop, can be performed in one turn using the Power Herb; some of these moves can be performed in one turn if some condition is met.

A similar move, Bide, causes to user to wait for two turns (2-3 turns prior to Generation IV); after those two turns, Bide inflicts damage to the last Pokémon to damage it equal to double the amount of damage it took during those turns.
