Discharge

Electric

Summary

Discharge is an Electric-type move with 80 power and 100% accuracy. It has a 30% chance of paralyzing each Pokémon adjacent to the user, making it particularly effective in Double Battles. Discharge can hit all Pokémon in a battle, not just the opponent, which requires strategic planning to avoid harming allies. It is known for its utility not only due to its decent power and paralysis chance but also for its ability to damage multiple targets at once. This move is often used by Electric-type Pokémon with abilities or strategies that mitigate its spread damage, such as using Pokémon with the Volt Absorb or Motor Drive abilities as partners.
