Effectiveness varies depending on when it is used.

Tail Slap (Japanese: スイープビンタ Sweep Slap) is a damage-dealing Normal-type multi-strike move introduced in Generation V. It is the signature move of Minccino and Cinccino.

Effect

Tail Slap inflicts damage, hitting the target 2-5 times per use. There is a ~33.3% chance that it will hit 2 times, a ~33.3% chance it will hit 3 times, a ~16.7% chance it will hit 4 times, and a ~16.7% chance it will hit 5 times. Provided that the move does not miss, it will hit ~3.167 times on average, giving it an average power of ~79.2. Each strike made has an equal chance to be a critical hit.

Tail Slap may continue attacking after breaking a substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge the last strike of this move.

If the target has Weak Armor or an Ability that activates upon contact, each strike counts individually, enabling the Ability to activate multiple times.

Pokémon with the Ability Skill Link will always hit five times when using Tail Slap unless it misses.

If a Focus Sash or Sturdy activates before the last strike is dealt, the following strike will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A Focus Band can still activate repeatedly to prevent fainting, but each chance is independent of the previous one.

If the target is holding a Rocky Helmet, the user is damaged for each strike.

If the user is holding a King's Rock, each consecutive hit has an equal chance to cause the opponent to flinch.
