Bone Club (Japanese: ホネこんぼう Bone Club) is a damage-dealing Ground-type move introduced in Generation I. It is one of the signature moves of Cubone and Marowak.
Effect
Generations I to VII
Bone Club inflicts damage and has a 10% chance of causing the target to flinch. Bone Club cannot cause a target with a substitute to flinch.
Bone Club can be used as the first move of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing Bone Rush and Bonemerang to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn. It can also be used to finish a combination, with the user gaining 2 bonus appeal points if Bone Rush or Bonemerang was used in the previous turn.
Generation VIII onwards
Bone Club cannot be selected in a battle.
