On Smogon's Movedex: Generation V Generation VI Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Secret Sword (Japanese: しんぴのつるぎ Sword of Mystery) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation V. It is the signature move of Keldeo.

Keldeo can only learn the move in Pokémon Black and White via tutoring when the remaining Swords of Justice are also in the party. When the four are brought to the forest Keldeo used to reside in, the trio will teach Keldeo the move. It can also be learned by Keldeo in the Pledge Grove in Pokémon Black and White 2, where learning the move allows Keldeo to change to its Resolute Forme.

Effect

Secret Sword inflicts damage. Although classified as a Special move, this move calculates damage using the user's Special Attack and the opponent's Defense stat (similar to Psyshock and Psystrike).

Description

Games Description BW The user cuts with its long horn. The odd power contained in the horn does physical damage to the target.
