Giga Impact is a Normal-type move introduced in Generation IV that deals a large amount of damage and must recharge next turn. It is identical to Hyper Beam, except that it is physical strike rather than a projectile. It was introduced because in Generation IV, Hyper Beam started using the Special Attack stat. This move uses the Attack stat, like the old Hyper Beam. Almost every Pokémon that can learn Hyper Beam through TM15 can learn Giga Impact through TM68, and vice versa.

Strangely, despite being among the lightest Pokémon (only surpassed by Gastly and Haunter), all members of the lake trio can learn this move.
