Jump Kick (Japanese: とびげり Dropkick) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I - III

Jump Kick does damage. If this attack misses, the user will crash and take damage (1/8 of the damage it would've otherwise dealt). Used against a Ghost-type, it always counts as a miss.

If the user of Jump Kick attacks first and faints itself due to crash damage, the opponent will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round.

In Generation I, the user lost 1 HP for crashed damage.

Generation IV

Same as before, but base power was changed from 70 to 85.
