'''Explosion''' (Japanese '''だいばくはつ''' ''Giant Explosion'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[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.

It regained its TM status, albeit as [[TM64]], in Generation IV onwards.


==Effect==
==Effect==
===Generation I===
===Generation I===
Explosion has a power of 170 in Generation I.
Explosion inflicts damage, and causes the user to faint. Though its [[power]] is listed as 170, the target's {{stat|Defense}} will be halved during [[damage]] calculation (unless it is at a value of 1), effectively doubling the power to 340.
 
Explosion does damage, and causes the user to faint. Though its power is listed as 170, the target's {{stat|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 {{m|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.

===Generation II===
===Generation II===
Explosion's base power was [[List of modified moves|changed]] to the current 250. The Defense-halving step still applies, giving it an effective power of 500.
Explosion's power is [[List of modified moves|increased]] to 250. The target's Defense is still halved, effectively doubling the power to 500.


If Explosion is used against a {{m|substitute}}, a {{t|Ghost}} type, or a Pokémon that has used {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}}, the user will still faint.

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 inflicts damage, and causes the user to faint. Though its power is listed as 170, the target's Defense will be halved during damage calculation (unless it is at a value of 1), effectively doubling the power to 340.

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 power is increased to 250. The target's Defense is still halved, effectively doubling the power to 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 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. The user's sprite no longer disappears upon using the move.

The Focus Sash won't prevent the user of Explosion from fainting.

Generation V

Explosion no longer halves the target's Defense. The user faints before dealing damage, unlike 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.

Description

Games Description
MDRB Makes the user blow up in a huge explosion, inflicting damage on all surrounding Pokémon. It also destroys surrounding items and walls.

Trivia

  • In Generation I, if Self-Destruct or Explosion causes the player to win and lose at the same time, the player blacks out as normal, but the victory music plays.
  • All Pokémon that can have the Ability Aftermath can learn Explosion.
  • Self-Destruct and Explosion are the only two damaging moves whose battle animations play out in the main series even if they would miss or have no effect.
  • If Explosion is upgraded into the Z-Move Breakneck Blitz, that Breakneck Blitz will have a lower power than Explosion (200 rather than 250).
