ExtremeSpeed is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation II.

Contents

Effect

Generation II

ExtremeSpeed does damage, and is a max-priority move. If the opponent does not use an max-priority move during the round that it is used, ExtremeSpeed will go first regardless of the user's or opponent's speed. If the opponent also uses ExtremeSpeed during the same turn that the user uses ExtremeSpeed, the attack order of the users will be determined normally. If the user is put to sleep or frozen during the round that ExtremeSpeed is (or attempts to be) used, ExtremeSpeed's increased speed priority will not be reset. Subsequently, it will only be reset on the turn after the user wakes up or is defrosted, or if the user switches out. A Pokémon using ExtremeSpeed will always hit before a Pokémon using an increased priority move, such as Quick Attack.
