Explosion (move): Difference between revisions
m (I would agree, but there were three different Clefairys that used it and it resulted in an explosion. I highly doubt those are all coincidences.) |

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.
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, ie. 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.
Generations III and IV
Explosion cannot be used when a Pokémon with the Ability Damp is on the field.
Generation V
Explosion no longer halves the target's Defense.
Mystery Dungeon
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.

Trivia
- Lickilicky and Smeargle are the only Pokémon that can learn this attack and receive STAB on it.
- Neither Lickilicky nor its pre-evolved form are capable of learning Selfdestruct.
- In Generation I, if Selfdestruct 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 the Pokémon that can have the Ability Aftermath can learn Explosion.
