Your move: ExtremeSpeed
- ExtremeSpeed (Japanese: しんそく Godspeed) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation II. It was the Signature move of Arcanine in Gold and Silver Versions.
- From Generation II to IV, ExtremeSpeed always went first regardless of the opponent's speed, unless they used a move with a higher priority. If the opposing Pokémon uses a move with the same priority as ExtremeSpeed, the order of the attacks will be calculated normally. In Generation V, ExtremeSpeed's priority became +2.
- Smeargle was the only Pokémon to receive STAB from ExtremeSpeed until special Zigzagoon were released in 2003 with the attack, and the move became available to more Pokémon in Generation IV.
- Raikou, Entei, and Suicune can only learn this move through events.
- ExtremeSpeed was also one of the moves known by the Lucario in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, used as a recovery move when the player pressed ↑+B.
- With the exception of May's Munchlax using it through Metronome, only Arcanine have used ExtremeSpeed in the anime.
- The move has appeared five times as a Poké-Body in the Pokémon Trading Card Game on two different Arcanine, and an Entei, Raikou, and Suicune originally release in Japan to commemorate the event Pokémon mentioned above. The Poké-Body reduces the Pokémon's Retreat Cost for each Energy Card attached.
