いわくだき
Rock Smash 		Learned at Lv. 1 or 3

Wicked Blow

Cooldown: 7 seconds
Upgrades into Wicked Blow+ at Lv. 11
 Melee Description
Charges power before striking in the designated direction with a fierce blow. The user's next basic attack after hitting an opposing Pokémon with this move becomes a boosted attack. While the user is charging, its movement speed is decreased, but it receives reduced damage and becomes immune to hindrances. If the user charges power for a set amount of time or longer before striking, it deals damage to opposing Pokémon in an area of effect. The lower the opposing Pokémon's remaining HP is, the more damage is dealt. Opposing Pokémon in the center of the area of effect receive a critical hit and are shoved. If the user does not charge power for that set amount of time, it deals damage to opposing Pokémon in an area of effect, decreasing their movement speed, and this move's cooldown is reduced.

Upgrade: Further reduces the damage the user receives while charging. Also, when the user strikes after charging power, opposing Pokémon in the center of the area of effect are also left unable to act.
