Acrobatics (Japanese: アクロバット Acrobat) is a damage-dealing Flying-type move introduced in Generation V.

It is:

Effect

Acrobatics deals damage and its power is doubled to 110 if the user has no held item. Acrobatics can hit non-adjacent opponents in Triple Battles. If the user is holding a Flying Gem, the item is consumed before this move checks whether the Pokémon has an item or not; therefore, the power is still doubled.
