5 | 8s | Has the user pull back its arms and attack, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in the area of effect, pulling them in front of the user, and leaving them unable to act for a short time. If this attack deals damage to at least one opposing Pokémon, a follow-up attack will be available for a short time. This follow-up attack has the user slam down a giant wooden hammer in front of itself, dealing damage to any Pokémon it hits and leaving them unable to act for a short time. The lower the user’s HP, the longer the opposing Pokémon will be left unable to act. Every time this move is used, it consumes a set amount of the user’s HP. Upgraded to Wood Hammer+ when the Pokémon reaches Lv. 11. Upgrade: When the follow-up attack hits opposing Pokémon, this move also decreases the damage those Pokémon deal for a short time. |
