The user attacks the target with a song.
Pokémon	Method
User	First Used In		Notes
	Swoobat opens its mouth and releases a high-pitched note from its mouth, causing red, green or blue circles to come out of its mouth. The opponent then holds its ears in pain. As the circles fly towards the opponent, they grow bigger. The attack is much more powerful when used in a group.
