Overwhelm (Japanese: 攻撃時攻撃ダウン Attack Reduction During Attack) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the Pokémon successfully lands an attack on the target, it has a chance of lowering the target's Attack by one stat rank. The skill can range from Overwhelm 1 to Overwhelm 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a higher chance of lowering the target's Attack. Overwhelm 9 will always lower the target's Attack. The skill applies to the Pokémon's usual attack moves, including Buddy Move Icon Masters.png buddy moves, but not sync moves or Dynamax icon.png max moves. Currently, only Overwhelm 2 and Overwhelm 9 are available on scoutable sync pairs.

The skill will act independently of the move's innate chance of lowering the target's Attack (if applicable). If the Pokémon has access to more than one Overwhelm skill, each will have a chance of activating independently of each other.
