Aerial Ace (Japanese: つばめがえし Swallow Return) is a damage-dealing Flying-type move introduced in Generation III. It was TM40 from Generation III to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon as well as in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. It is TM027 in Generation IX.
Effect
Aerial Ace inflicts damage and bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly. Aerial Ace can hit non-adjacent opponents in Triple Battles. If used by a Pokémon with Sharpness, its power is increased by 50%.

Trivia
- This move is based on and named after Sasaki Kojirō's "Turning Swallow Cut" sword technique, so named due to its resemblance to the motion of a swallow's tail in flight, and is usually construed as a quick upward slash followed by a second one down the same direction, same as the move's animation.
