Frenzy Plant is a slightly inaccurate but very highly-damaging Grass-type move introduced in Generation III. For all intents and purposes, it is a Grass-type Hyper Beam. In Pokémon Colosseum, it was erroneously named as Solid Plant.

An elderly man, much like the woman on Cape Brink, appears on Route 228 in the Battle Zone, and will teach it to the three fully evolved grass starters of the previous generations, as well as Torterra. He will also require that the Pokémon that is to learn the move has a high happiness rating.

Trivia

• Smeargle is the only Pokémon that is not a Grass-type starter Pokémon able to learn Frenzy Plant, due to Sketch.
• Mew, though repeatedly said on the Pokédex to be able to learn any move, is not able to learn Frenzy Plant because it can only be taught to Grass-type starter Pokémon.
