Description

This Pokémon deals additional damage to opposing Pokémon that have an active shield effect.
Each time this Pokémon hits Pokémon from the opposing team with moves or boosted basic attacks, its hammer becomes stronger and its Attack increases (up to 60 times maximum).
Also, after the hammer is strengthened 20, 40, and 60 times, Rock Smash, Gigaton Hammer, and Smack Down power up.

Basic Attack

	Damage category: Physical (as a basic attack)
	Damage category: Physical (as a boosted attack)
Description As the user evolves, its hammer's size and basic attack range increase. Whenever a set amount of time passes, the next basic attack becomes a boosted attack, dealing increased damage and restoring the user's HP. When the user is hit by a basic attack from an opposing Pokémon, this boosted attack's cooldown is reduced.

Trivia

Kiss Bliss Kaboom may be based on Sweet Kiss and Gigaton Hammer.
Tinkaton's Character Spotlight trailer was the first to feature a new thumbnail style, now having a different design with a different color, alongside an addition of the text, "(Pokémon name) is scheduled to join the fray on (release date)!".
- This has been reverted back to its previous thumbnail design since the release of "Pawmot Character Spotlight" on YouTube, but the new thumbnail design has been used in other social media posts.
