User	First Used In		Notes
	Zoroark's body becomes surrounded by a crimson aura and it raises its hands above its head. It then slams then down to the ground, and the aura surrounding Zoroark's body all appears around its forearms. A pink and crimson shockwave then appears out of Zoroark's hands where it slammed them and expands outwards. Sometimes, its eyes glow light blue before using the attack.
