Upper Hand (Japanese: はやてがえし Quick Hand Reversal) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation IX. It is TM229 in Generation IX.

Effect

Upper Hand has a priority of +3. If the target has selected a physical or special move with increased priority from +1 to +3 and has not yet had a chance to execute its move, Upper Hand will strike first and cause the target to flinch; otherwise, Upper Hand will fail. It also works on Abilities that give priority to moves, such as Gale Wings.

Description

Games Description
SV The user reacts to the target's movement and strikes with the heel of its palm, making the target flinch. This move fails if the target is not readying a priority move.
