Effect

Generation III to V

Rock Tomb deals damage and lowers the opponent's Speed by one stage. It has a power of 50, 10 PP, and 80% accuracy.

Rock Tomb can be used as the second move of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining 3 bonus appeal points if Rock Throw was used in the previous turn.

Generation VI onwards

Rock Tomb's power changed to 60, its PP changed to 15, and its accuracy changed to 95%.

Generation IX

Pokémon Legends: Z-A

In Pokémon Legends: Z-A, Rock Tomb drops a rock at a fixed distance in front of the user. If the rock hits a target, it deals damage and reduces the target's movement speed.

If it does not hit a target, the rock will instead remain in place as an obstacle that can block pathing and projectile attacks. The rock can be targeted, and will be destroyed upon being hit by any attacking move.

Trivia

• Rock Tomb is the only Rock-type Clever move.
• In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, and in Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD, the TM description erroneously indicates that using Rock Tomb will not always lower the target's Speed.
• In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl:
  • The TM description erroneously states that using Rock Tomb can cause the target to flinch.
  • When this move is used in a Double Battle, it appears to attack the Pokémon opposite of what the player has chosen. However, the damage is done to the Pokémon initially selected.
