Trivia

• Vacuum-Cut is one of the only two moves exclusive to the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, the other being Wide Slash. However, this excludes Excavate and Spin Slash, both of which were taken out of the game late in development, although their TMs can be obtained through cheating devices.
• Several Pokémon that cannot learn TMs in the core series can learn Vacuum-Cut, but not all of them.
