Final Gambit (Japanese: いのちがけ Life Risk) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation V.

Effect

Final Gambit causes the user to faint, and the target receives damage equal to however much HP the user had before executing the move.

If Final Gambit doesn't hit the opponent due to missing, immunity or Protect, then Final Gambit will fail and the user will not faint. Using this move will not activate the Focus Sash, and therefore, the Pokémon still faints regardless of whether the item is held or not. If the user of Final Gambit has Sturdy, it will faint even if its HP is full.

Description

Games Description
BW The user risks everything to attack its target. The user faints but does damage equal to the user's HP.
