Triple Battle: Difference between revisions

→‎Effect on moves: Some of them also have an effect in Horde Encounters (and soon, possibly Battle Royals)
(→‎Effect on moves: When Single Battles are the focus of this clause, it becomes pretty irrelevant to the Triple Battle article, but since we don't have a Single Battle article I'm assuming it shouldn't be removed from this page. Hence, rephrasing.)

Line 23: Line 23:
Most [[move]]s have the same effect in Triple Battles as with single and Double Battles, except that they can only affect adjacent Pokémon. Moves that hit both opponents or all Pokémon in Double Battles only affect adjacent Pokémon in Triple Battles. All single-target damage-dealing Flying-type moves, {{m|Flying Press}}, and all single-target {{cat|aura and pulse moves}} can hit any Pokémon on the battlefield; this targeting is based on the original type of the move, so moves being changed to or from Flying-type (including moves that change their own type like {{m|Hidden Power}}) does not affect targeting. Moves that hit multiple Pokémon will have their damage reduced by 25%, unless there is only one target at the time the move is executed.
