Double Shock (Japanese: でんこうそうげき Lightning Attack) is a damage-dealing Electric-type move introduced in Generation IX. It is the signature move of Pawmot.

Effect

If used by an Electric-type Pokémon, Double Shock will inflict damage to the target and cause the user to lose its Electric type. Double Shock fails if the user is not Electric-type, making the move always fail after the first use until the Pokémon regains its Electric type (either by switching out, or other type changing effects such as through Protean or Reflect Type).

If the user is a pure Electric-type Pokémon, it will become typeless.

Like all type changing effects, the Pokémon's type reverts to its default types if it is switched out.

A Pokémon with Protean cannot successfully use Double Shock unless it already is Electric-type; otherwise, Double Shock will fail and Protean will not activate.

Description

Games Description
SV The user discharges all the electricity from its body to perform a high-damage attack. After using this move, the user will no longer be Electric type.
