Outrage (Japanese: げきりん Imperial Rage) is a damage-dealing Dragon-type move introduced in Generation II.
It is:
- TM39 in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.
- TR24 in Pokémon Sword and Shield.
- TM156 in Generation IX.
Prior to Generation III, it was the signature move of Dratini's evolutionary line.
Effect
Generation II
Outrage inflicts damage for 2-3 turns, has a base power of 90, and 15 PP. PP is deducted only on the turn Outrage is first called. While the user is using Outrage, it cannot use any other move. After Outrage is finished, the user becomes confused, due to fatigue.
If the Outrage duration is disrupted (such as by full paralysis or hurting itself due to confusion), it will immediately end. The user will only become confused if Outrage is fully executed, without its duration being disrupted. Sleep, freeze, partial trapping, and flinching will pause but not disrupt the duration of Outrage.
Generation III
A message is now displayed when the user becomes confused due to fatigue.
In battles with multiple opponents, the user selects itself as the target, but hits an adjacent opponent that is selected at random upon each use of the move.
Generation IV
The base power of Outrage has been increased to 120.
Generation V to VIII
Outrage's PP was reduced to 10 and it is disrupted if it is not successful due to missing, sleeping, paralysis, freeze, flinching, a Protecting target, or Wonder Guard immunity. If a disruption occurs on what would have been the final, confusion-inducing turn of Outrage, the user will always become confused.
Outrage will be disrupted if used on Fairy-type Pokémon, which are immune to it.
Generation VIII
Pokémon Legends: Arceus
Outrage's base power was reduced to 90 and its accuracy to 85%. It no longer continues for multiple turns and confuses the user, and instead the user becomes fixated on using Outrage.

Generation IX
Disruption now causes confusion, regardless of whether it occurs on what would have been the final turn of Outrage.

Pokémon UNITE
In Pokémon UNITE, Outrage is Dragonite's second move. It is obtained by evolving from Dragonair at level 7 and upgrading Dragon Breath into it instead of Hyper Beam. The user stomps the ground, dealing damage to enemies in an area around the user with the bonus effect of the last Boosted Attack he used. Additionally, the user gains a buff for 5s, increasing basic attack speed, converting all of their attacks into melee Boosted Attacks, and alternating through the water, electric, and fire Boosted Attacks in order. When the buff ends, the user is briefly stunned. At level 13, the move also reduces the duration of hindrances inflicted on the user while rampaging.

Trivia
- The Japanese name げきりん (逆鱗) gekirin ("wrath of one's superior", literally "reversed scale") may refer to the idiom 逆鱗に触れる gekirin ni fureru ("to infuriate one's superior", literally "to touch the reversed scale"). In East Asian mythology, dragons are benevolent and tamable creatures, but possess a scale growing in reverse (some sources say, on their chins) which, if touched, will incite the dragon's fury.
- The Lake of Outrage is named after this move, except in French and Italian.
- In French, it is named after Twister (Ouragan), possibly to prevent confusion with the Lake of Rage, which, in French, is named after Outrage. In Italian, it is named after Dragon Rush (Dragofuria).
