Explosion does not cause the user to faint, but instead cuts its HP in half, and affects all Pokémon, items, and walls within 2 tiles of the user, reducing HP by half on teammates, by 80 on hostile Pokémon, and destroying all walls, items, and [[dungeon tile|special tiles]]. Explosion cannot be used in {{weather|rain}} or on any floor with a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Damp}}. Additionally, {{type|Fire}} Pokémon take only 50% of usual damage. | |||

Explosion (Japanese だいばくはつ Giant Explosion) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It is currently the most powerful move in terms of its base power. It was TM47 in Generation I before losing its TM status in Generation II. It regained its TM status, albeit as TM64, in Generation IV onwards.
Effect
Generation I
Explosion has a power of 170 in Generation I.
Explosion does damage, and causes the user to faint. Though its power is listed as 170, the target's Defense will be halved when damage from this attack is calculated, giving it an effective power of 340. The game rounds up to avoid infinite damage, so Explosion will then effectively have a power of 170 if used against a target with a Defense value of 1.
If Explosion breaks a target's substitute, the user will not faint, though its image will be replaced by a blank image. Additionally, if the user of Explosion had a substitute at the time of such a situation, uses Substitute later, or switches out, its regular image will once again become visible.
If the user of Explosion attacks first and faints itself, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round.
In Stadium, if Explosion breaks a target's substitute, the user will faint. The base power listed in Stadium is the one after halving Defense, i.e. 340.
Generation II
Explosion's base power was changed to the current 250. The Defense-halving step still applies, giving it an effective power of 500.
If Explosion is used against a substitute, a Ghost type, or a Pokémon that has used Protect or Detect, the user will still faint.
Unlike in the previous game, Stadium 2 lists Explosion's base power before halving Defense.
The Focus Band won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generations III and IV
Explosion cannot be used when a Pokémon with the Ability Damp is on the field. User's sprite no longer disappears upon the use of move.
Explosion will also affect all other Pokémon on the field in Double Battles.
The Focus Sash won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generation V
Explosion no longer halves the target's Defense. Also, the user now faints before dealing damage as opposed to fainting after dealing damage in previous generations.
Sturdy won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.
Generation VI
Explosion returns to damaging the target before the user faints.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
Explosion does not cause the user to faint, but instead cuts its HP in half, and affects all Pokémon, items, and walls within 2 tiles of the user, reducing HP by half on teammates, by 80 on hostile Pokémon, and destroying all walls, items, and special tiles. Explosion cannot be used in rain or on any floor with a Pokémon with the Ability Damp. Additionally, Fire-type Pokémon take only 50% of usual damage.
In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, Explosion is a Status move. It only activates if the Pokémon is attacked. It also destroys all items on the floor if activated.
