Rock Smash (Japanese: いわくだき Rock Smash) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation II. It was TM08 when it was introduced, and became HM06 in Generation III, as its use became essential for completing the game. It lost its HM status in Generation V, where it became TM94.

Effect

In battle

In Generations II and III

The move damages the target and has a 50% chance of lowering the target's Defense.

Rock Smash has a base power of 20.

In Generation IV

Same as Generation II and III, but with a base power of 40 instead.

Outside of battle

Generation II

Smashes rocks to clear the path, can find wild Pokémon inside.

Generation III

Same as in Generation II, but now is an HM.

Generation IV

Diamond, Pearl and Platinum

Same as before, but wild Pokémon no longer appear.

HeartGold and SoulSilver

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, wild Pokémon, Heart Scales, shards, Fossils, and other items can be found underneath certain rocks. There are three kinds of smashable rocks that differ both with wild Pokémon and items that can be found there.

Generation V

No longer has an overworld effect and is again a TM rather than an HM.

Mystery Dungeon

Turns a wall tile in front of the user into a floor tile, revealing any item hidden within it. Has 99 PP but cannot target enemies or be used diagonally.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Rock Smash is Charizard's Side Special move. Unlike the Pokémon games, Rock Smash is a move with high damage and knockback and can potentially KO a foe in one hit.
