Vital Throw deals damage and is a decreased [[priority]] move, causing the user to attack after other Pokémon that are using ordinary priority moves. However, it will strike before Pokémon using other decreased priority moves such as {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{m|Avalanche}}. Vital Throw does not miss unless the target has just used {{m|Fly}}, {{m|Dig}}, {{m|Dive}}, {{m|Bounce}}, or {{m|Shadow Force}}.

A Pokémon using Vital Throw will gain the Vital Throw status. A Pokémon that directly inflicts damage on a Pokémon with the Vital Throw status is sent flying, usually towards the other side of the room.

Vital Throw (Japanese: あてみなげ Strike Throw) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation II. Prior to Generation III, it was the signature move of the Machop evolutionary line.

Effect

Vital Throw deals damage and is a decreased priority move, causing the user to attack after other Pokémon that are using ordinary priority moves. However, it will strike before Pokémon using other decreased priority moves such as Focus Punch and Avalanche. Vital Throw is unaffected by modifications to the accuracy and evasion stats, but it will not hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of moves such as Fly and Dig.
