Fling (Japanese: なげつける Throw) is a damage-dealing Dark-type move introduced in Generation IV.

It is:

• TM56 from Generation IV to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, and in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.
• TM59 in Pokémon Sword and Shield.
• TM043 in Generation IX.

Effect

	This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: The following items are missing, or the damage dealt is unknown: Max Honey and Wishing Chip; also, can Fling fling TMs in BDSP? You can discuss this on the talk page.

Fling inflicts damage; the power of the move is determined by the user's held item.

Fling fails if the user has no held item, or if their held item is a TM, an Apricorn, a Gem, any type of Poké Ball, Mail, a Z-Crystal, an Ability Capsule, an Ability Patch, a Festival Ticket, the Red Orb, the Blue Orb, the Rusted Sword, or the Rusted Shield. After using Fling, the item is consumed, even if the target was protected by a protection move.

The power of Fling based on the held item is detailed in the following table.

90	All Plates Deep Sea Tooth, Grip Claw, Thick Club
100	All Fossils Hard Stone, Rare Bone, Room Service
130	Iron Ball

If the user holds a TR, Fling's power is equal to the power of the move the TR contains, unless the move does not list a specific power (i.e. it is a status move or has variable power with no default power), in which case it has 10 power. Due to this, TR71 (Leaf Storm) and TR43 (Overheat) match the Iron Ball in producing the maximum possible Fling power of 130.

If the user's held item can boost the power of moves (such as the Black Glasses or Life Orb), the power of Fling is boosted by the held item accordingly (if applicable). Because the user is no longer holding the item after using the move, the Life Orb does not reduce the user's HP when it boosts the power of Fling.

If a Pokémon holding a Berry uses Fling, that Berry will activate for the target (even if its usual trigger condition is not satisfied). Additionally, some other items have special effects when a Pokémon holding them uses with Fling:

Item	Effect	Power
Flame Orb	Burns the target	30
King's Rock	Causes the target to flinch	30
Light Ball	Paralyzes the target	30
Mental Herb	Cures the effects of infatuation, Taunt, Encore, Torment, Disable, and Heal Block from the target In Generation IV, only cures infatuation	10
Poison Barb	Poisons the target	70
Razor Fang	Causes the target to flinch	30
Toxic Orb	Badly poisons the target	30
White Herb	Restores lowered stats of the target	10

Fling fails if used by an Arceus holding a Plate, a Giratina holding the Griseous Orb, a Genesect holding a Drive, a Silvally holding a Memory, or a Pokémon holding a Mega Stone that allows it to Mega Evolve. Embargo, Klutz (from Generation V onward), and Magic Room all prevent the usage of Fling; Unnerve prevents a Pokémon holding a Berry from using Fling. In Generation IV only, if the target of Fling is under the effect of Embargo and the user was holding an item with a special effect, then that item's effect will not activate.

Fling can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if Celebrate, Covet, Happy Hour, or Wish was used in the prior turn.

In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Explorers of Time and Darkness, Fling is a non-damaging move with 16PP that ignores accuracy and evasion checks. The user sends the enemy in front flying to another tile in the room. If there's another hostile Pokémon in the range, the target will bounce off of it before landing, causing both of them to take 10 damage.

In Explorers of Sky, the move is now affected by Taunt.

In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, using Fling opens the inventory and allows the leader to choose an item to fling (excluding held items). It only works when a visible enemy is within a fan-shaped area up to 10 tiles in front. Like Gravelerocks, the item will be flung in an arc, but otherwise has the same effect as when thrown normally. Partner Pokémon can use this move to fling their held item. Though Fling is listed as a status move, it is unaffected by Prankster.

Trivia

• Fling is one of two moves with a 100% chance of causing flinching (if holding a King's Rock or Razor Fang), the other being Fake Out.
• Fling fails if the user is holding any Poké Ball, presumably to avoid the implications of a Pokémon throwing a Poké Ball.
• Fling is the only Dark-type move able to cause paralysis (if holding a Light Ball), a burn (if holding a Flame Orb), or poisoning (if holding a Poison Barb or Toxic Orb).
• In the anime, Fling can also be used to throw the remains of attacks, such as when Bianca's Emboar flung the remains of Trip's Conkeldurr's Stone Edge at it. It can also be used to throw the opponent.
