Every attack has a name, which is printed in large black text (except for the {{TCG|Darkness}} type, which is printed in white) to the right of the attack cost. Many effects care about the name of an attack that a Pokémon has, or the name of the attack that was used on a prior turn. Attacks with the same name can have different effects, but are treated identically by effects that care about the attack's name. | Every attack has a name, which is printed in large black text (except for the {{TCG|Darkness}} type, which is printed in white) to the right of the attack cost.
