Secret Sword (Japanese: しんぴのつるぎ Arcane Sword) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation V. It is the signature move of Keldeo; however, this Pokémon is only able to learn the move via tutoring when the three musketeers are also in the party. When the four are brought to the forest Keldeo used to reside in, the trio will teach Keldeo the move.
