Sheer Force raises the base power of all moves that have a secondary effect by 30%, whereas the secondary effects are ignored. However, this ability is not applied to moves that have a negative effect on the user, such as recoil, two-turn moves, and stat reduction after using certain moves. However, this does not mean that moves that fit these conditions and have another secondary effect are not boosted, such as {{m|Flare Blitz}}.

If a Pokémon with Sheer Force is holding a [[Life Orb]] and uses an attack that would be boosted by Sheer Force, then the move gains both boosts but the user does not receive the Life Orb recoil damage. The effects of [[Eject Button]], [[Shell Bell]], and [[Red Card]] are also negated by Sheer Force.
