Swat たたきおとす
Knock Down
Skill
Increases damage against  Flying ,  Bug , or  Fairy  types.

Swat (Japanese: たたきおとす Knock Down) is a skill in Pokémon Shuffle.

Activation

This skill activates only if the foe is a  Flying ,  Bug , or  Fairy  type.

Effect

When this skill is activated,  Psychic -type damage is considered super effective (2× damage) for the entire combo. This overrides the standard type effectiveness multiplier.

However, skill level affects only the damage of the first match, where it applies a separate multiplier that stacks with the type effectiveness multiplier.

  • For example: at skill level 5, the first match effectively deals 3.2× damage (1.6× * 2×).

Other damage multipliers, such as those based on match size, combo count, or status conditions, are applied as usual. See Pokémon Shuffle → Damage for more details.

Skill level growth

Increasing skill level will increase the damage dealt by the initial match.
