Bone Rush (Japanese: ボーンラッシュ Bone Rush) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 multi-hit move introduced in Generation II and was, prior to Generation IV, one of the Signature moves of Cubone and Marowak.

Effect

Generation II

Bone Rush 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. This gives the attack an average power of 75. Each attack made has an equal chance to land a critical hit.

Bone Rush will end immediately if it breaks a Substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge the last hit of this move.

Generation IV

The effects are the same as the previous generations, except it will continue attacking after a Substitute is broken.

Generation V

The accuracy of Bone Rush is increased from 80 to 90. Unlike previous generations, if Focus Sash, Focus Band, or Sturdy activate before the last hit is dealt, the following hit will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. Each hit will also cause Weak Armor to activate.
