'''Rock Blast''' (Japanese: '''ロックブラスト''' ''Rock Blast'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Rock}} [[multi-strike move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It was [[TM54]] in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, and is [[TM076]] in [[Generation IX]].
==Generation III==
Rock Blast does damage, hitting 2-5 times per use. There is a 37.5% chance that it will hit 2 times, a 37.5% chance that it will hit 3 times, a 12.5% chance that it will hit 4 times, and a 12.5% chance that it will hit 5 times. Each attack made has an equal chance to land a critical hit.


Rock Blast will end immediately if it breaks a {{m|Substitute}}. {{m|Bide}} and {{m|Counter}} will only acknowledge the last hit of this move.
==Effect==
===Generations III and IV===
Rock Blast inflicts damage, hitting the target 2-5 times per use. There is a 37.5% chance that it will hit 2 times, a 37.5% chance that it will hit 3 times, a 12.5% chance that it will hit 4 times, and a 12.5% chance that it will hit 5 times. Each strike made has an equal chance to be a [[critical hit]].


==Generation IV==
Rock Blast may continue attacking after breaking a {{m|substitute}}. {{m|Bide}} and {{m|Counter}} will only acknowledge the last strike of this move.
Same as Generation III, except it will continue attacking after a Substitute is broken.


=Learnset=
If the user is holding a [[King's Rock]] or [[Razor Fang]], each consecutive hit has an equal chance to cause the opponent to [[flinch]].
==[[Generation III]]==
 
<div style="{{Learnset section box style}}">
Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Skill Link}} will always hit five times when using Rock Blast unless it misses.
 
Rock Blast has an accuracy of 80%.
 
===Generations V and VI===
Rock Blast's accuracy increased from 80% to 90%. There is now a 35% chance that it will hit 2 times, a 35% chance it will hit 3 times, a 15% chance it will hit 4 times, and a 15% chance it will hit 5 times. The average total base power (including the 10% base miss chance) is now 69.8.
 
If a [[Focus Sash]] activates before the last strike is dealt, the following strike will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A [[Focus Band]] can still activate repeatedly to prevent fainting, but each chance is independent. {{a|Sturdy}} will activate with each hit if the defending Pokémon has a maximum HP of 1.
 
If the target has {{a|Weak Armor}}, each strike will activate it.
 
===Generation VII onwards===
Pokémon with {{a|Bulletproof}} are immune to Rock Blast. Each strike will now also activate {{a|Stamina}}.

==In other games==
===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]===
Rock Blast inflicts damage, hitting the target 2-5 times per use. Each hit has a separate accuracy check, though the move will continue even when a hit fails. Prior to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], if a targeted Pokémon faints in middle of the attack and is revived with a [[Seed#Reviver Seed|Reviver Seed]], the remaining hits will be able to continue to attack the enemy. The move's critical-hit rate is reduced (1% in the Rescue Team, Explorers and Adventure Squad series).
