If Toxic is used by a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, that move will never miss, even if the target is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move such as {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Dig}}. In the event that such a Pokémon manages to use additional moves after Toxic in the same turn, those moves will never miss either due to the [[Toxic sure-hit glitch]].

Toxic can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], causing {{m|Hex}}, {{m|Venom Drench}} and {{m|Venoshock}} to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.

If Toxic hits a [[Dynamax]]ed opponent in [[Max Raid Battle]]s, it will instantly become normal poison.
If Toxic hits a [[Dynamax]]ed opponent in [[Max Raid Battle]]s, the Dynamax Pokémon is inflicted with normal poison instead of bad poison.


The Toxic sure-hit glitch continues to exist in versions 1.0.0 through 1.3.0 of {{game|Sword and Shield|s}}. Starting with version 1.3.1, it was patched: while Toxic used by a Poison-type Pokémon still has sure-hit accuracy, this effect is properly constrained and no longer extends to later moves in the same turn.
From version 1.0.0 to version 1.3.0 of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, the [[Toxic sure-hit glitch]] remains the same as previous generations. In version 1.3.1 of Pokémon Sword and Shield, the [[Toxic sure-hit glitch]] was fixed: If a Poison-type Pokémon uses Toxic, moves it uses later in that same turn perform accuracy checks as normal.
