Swift (Japanese: スピードスター Speed Star) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. In Generation I and II, it is available as TM39. In Generation III and IV, it is available from a Move Tutor.
Effect
Generation I
Swift inflicts damage and is unaffected by modifications to the Accuracy stat and Evasion stat. It can hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of moves such as Dig and Fly.
Generation II
Same as before, except Swift will not hit the target during the semi-invulnerable turn of Fly or Dig, and moves such as Protect also allow the opponent to avoid taking damage.
Generations III and IV
Swift hits both opposing Pokémon in a Double Battle.
Generation V
In a Triple Battle, Swift will only hit opposing adjacent Pokémon.
