Knock Off (Japanese: はたきおとす Knock Off) is a damage-dealing Dark-type move introduced in Generation III.
Effect
Generations III and IV
Knock Off inflicts damage and removes the target's held item. If Knock Off triggers an item (such as a Focus Band, Focus Sash, or Colbur Berry) after the attack, that item activates before Knock Off removes it (unless it was consumed). Once the item has been removed, it cannot be used throughout the battle and switching either Pokémon out will not cause the target to regain its item. Knock Off cannot remove an item from Pokémon with the Sticky Hold or Multitype Ability, or from Pokémon behind a substitute. It also cannot remove a Griseous Orb from Giratina
After the battle, the target will regain the knocked-off item. If an Exp. Share or Lucky Egg was knocked off, the target will still gain experience accordingly.
Generation V
Knock Off can now remove any item from a Pokémon with Multitype except a Plate.
Generation VI
Knock Off's power has been increased from 20 to 65, and its PP increased from 20 to 25. In addition, it will deal 50% more damage if used on a Pokémon holding an item other than a Mega Stone or a Giratina holding a Griseous Orb. Sticky Hold does not prevent this bonus.
Knock Off will not remove a held item if the user faints due to Rough Skin, Iron Barbs, or Rocky Helmet. It also cannot remove a Mega Stone.
