Generation I

Low Kick has a power of 50 and has a 29.7% chance of causing the opponent to flinch.

Low Kick can't make an opponent with a Substitute flinch.

Generation III onwards

Low Kick doesn't have a standard Power; rather, it inflicts greater damage on a heavier target. Low Kick's power is calculated as follows:

Target's Weight Power
0.1 - 22 lb. 20
22.1 - 55 lb. 40
55.1 - 110 lb. 60
110.1 - 220 lb. 80
220.1 - 440 lb. 100
440.1 lb. or more 120

Mystery Dungeon

The damage done by Low Kick is increased or decreased based on the target of the attack (approximately by weight), from 60% to 140%.
