A sound-based move is any move that uses sound. Sound-based moves have a variety of unique properties and effects.
In the games
In the core series games, sound-based moves have the following effects:
- Pokémon with the Soundproof Ability are unaffected by other Pokémon's sound-based moves, except Heal Bell in Generation V.
- Pokémon affected by Throat Chop cannot use sound-based moves for two turns.
- Sound-based moves used by a Pokémon with Liquid Voice become Water-type moves.
- Sound-based moves used by a Pokémon with Punk Rock are boosted by 30%. Pokémon with Punk Rock also take half damage from sound-based moves.
- If a Pokémon holding a Throat Spray uses a sound-based move, the Throat Spray is consumed and boosts the holder's Special Attack by one stage.
While not an inherent property of sound-based moves, from Generation VI onward, all sound-based moves (except Howl) can hit Pokémon behind a substitute regardless of the substitute.
