Focus Punch
FightingSummary
Focus-Punch is a Fighting-type move with 150 power and 100% accuracy. It is a unique move that requires the user to charge up at the beginning of the turn and then deliver the punch if not hit by an opponent's move. If the user is hit during the charging phase, it loses its focus and the move fails. Despite its high power, this move is less common due to the risk involved in its execution, but it can be devastating if used correctly, especially in conjunction with moves or abilities that prevent flinching or ensure protection during setup.
Effect

Short Effect: If the user takes damage before attacking, the attack is canceled.
