Gust (Japanese: かぜおこし Stir Up Wind) is a damage-dealing Flying-type move introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation II, it was a Normal-type move.

Effect

Generation I

Gust deals damage and has no secondary effect.

It is a Normal-type move in this generation.

Generation II

Gust is now a Flying-type move.

Gust can hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turns of Fly and Bounce, and if it does, will deal double the damage.

Generation III

Gust is now affected by King's Rock.

Generation IV

If Gust hits a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turns of Fly or Bounce, its power will now be doubled instead of the damage dealt (resulting in virtually the same effect).

Gust is no longer affected by King's Rock.

Generation V onwards

Gust can hit non-adjacent opponents in Triple Battles. It can now hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turns of Fly, Bounce and Sky Drop, and if it does, its power will be doubled.

Gust is now affected by King's Rock.

Generation VIII

Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Gust's PP was reduced from 35 to 25.
