Double Slap (move): Difference between revisions

DoubleSlap 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. Provided that the move does not miss, it will hit 3 times on average, giving it an average power of 45. Although only the first strike can be a [[critical hit]], each successive one will deal the same amount of damage.

DoubleSlap will end immediately if it breaks a {{m|substitute}}. {{m|Bide}} and {{m|Counter}} will only acknowledge the last strike of this move.

All strikes now do damage independently, enabling any of them to be critical hits.

If the target has {{DL|Contact|Abilities|an Ability that activates upon contact}}, each strike counts individually, enabling the Ability to activate multiple times.

 

DoubleSlap may now continue attacking after breaking a substitute.

There is now a ~33.3% chance that Double Slap will hit 2 times, a ~33.3% chance it will hit 3 times, a ~16.7% chance it will hit 4 times, and a ~16.7% chance it will hit 5 times. Provided that the move does not miss, it will hit ~3.167 times on average, giving it an average power of 47.5.

If a [[Focus Sash]], [[Focus Band]], or {{a|Sturdy}} activates before the last strike is dealt, the following strike will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A Focus Band can still activate repeatedly to prevent fainting, but each chance is independent of the previous one.

* Like most multi-strike moves, this move can hit the opponent up to five times. This is despite being called ''Double'' Slap, which suggests that it only hits twice.

** However, the Chinese, French, Korean, and Japanese names for Double Slap do not indicate a specific number of strikes.
