On Smogon's Movedex: Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Multi-Attack (Japanese: マルチアタック Multi Attack) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation VII. It is the signature move of Silvally.

Effect

Multi-Attack inflicts damage and has no secondary effect. The type of Multi-Attack depends on the type of memory held by the user, being Normal-type if there is no held memory.

If the user has Klutz, or if Magic Room is in effect, Multi-Attack's type will always be Normal regardless of the memory held.

Multi-Attack is unaffected by Normalize, Pixilate, Refrigerate, and Aerilate. However, it is affected by Ion Deluge (if the move would be Normal-type) and Electrify.

Generation VII

Multi-Attack's power is 90.

Generation VIII

Multi-Attack's power has been increased to 120. If Silvally Dynamaxes, the move is displayed as Max Strike, but becomes the Max Move of whichever type of memory it is holding when used.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl

Multi-Attack cannot be selected in a battle.

Generation IX

Multi-Attack cannot be selected in a battle.
