== Damage type of Contact moves ==
The article states that
<blockquote>ever since the distinction between physical and special were no longer based on types, '''most''' moves that make contact are physical.</blockquote>
but it also states
<blockquote>Post-Gen IV, Damage dealing for moves that make contact are '''always''' calculated using the attacking Pokémon's Attack and the defending Pokémon's Defense.</blockquote>
This implies that special moves that make contact (according to the Japanese wiki page these are [[Trump Card (move)|Trump Card]], [[Grass Knot (move)|Grass Knot]], [[Wring Out (move)|Wring Out]] and [[Petal Dance (move)|Petal Dance]]) deliver physical damage despite having a special type. Please either clarify or correct this as appropriate ._. [[User:Hyperworm|Hyperworm]] 13:11, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
