==Effect==

If Skull Bash is not fully executed, PP will not be deducted from it, and it will not count as the last move used. If the opponent uses {{m|Mirror Move}} during the turn that the user lowers its head, Mirror Move will copy the move that the user executed immediately before using Skull Bash (or fail if it can't).

In {{OBP|Pokémon Stadium|English|Stadium}}, Mirror Move will copy Skull Bash on either of the turns it takes to execute.
