Revenge (Japanese: リベンジ Revenge) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

Generation III

Revenge deals damage. If the user takes damage in the same turn, Revenge's power is doubled to 120. Revenge is affected by the user's and target's speed stat and therefore the user must be slower than the target in order to take damage in the same turn or must be hit by an increased priority attack.

Generation IV

Revenge deals damage and is a decreased priority move, causing the user to attack after other Pokémon that are using ordinary priority moves. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as Generation III.
