Multi-strike move: Difference between revisions

Multi-strike moves stop instantly upon breaking an enemy {{m|Substitute}}. If an opponent is knocked out by a multi-strike move, the game does not state how many times the attack hit. Only the first hit of a multi-strike move could be a critical hit, but in such an event, all subsequent hits would also do double damage.

If a multi-strike move breaks a Substitute (and didn't use the last hit to break it), the move continues, striking the Pokémon that was behind the Substitute. A [[Focus Sash]] activated by a multi-strike move will protect the holder from the rest of the attack. Pokémon with the {{a|Skill Link}} Ability are guaranteed that any 2-5 hit multi-strike move they use will hit the full five times. The [[Razor Fang]] will take each hit into consideration when determining whether or not the opponent will flinch.
