Comet Punch (Japanese: れんぞくパンチ Consecutive Punch) is a mostly accurate Normal-type move introduced in Generation I that deals very little damage.

Effect

Generation I

Comet Punch does damage, hitting 2-5 times per use. There is a 37.5% chance that it will hit 2 times, a 37.5% chance that it will hit 3 times, a 12.5% chance that it will hit 4 times, and a 12.5% chance that it will hit 5 times. Though technically only the first hit can critical hit, each hit per use will do the same amount of damage.

Comet Punch will end immediately if it breaks a Substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge one hit of a Comet Punch attack.

Generation IV

Same as Generation I, except it will continue attacking after a Substitute is broken.
