Movable boulder

Movable boulders are a type of obstacle appearing in many core series games, commonly found in caves. To get past them, the player must use the help of a Pokémon to move them around. They appear in Generations I to VII. In Generations I to VI, they can be moved using the field move Strength. In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, they can be moved using the Ride Pokémon Machamp Shove. In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, they can be moved using the Secret Technique Strong Push.
