Gust

Flying

Summary

Gust is a Flying-type move with 40 power and 100% accuracy. Initially introduced in Generation I, Gust was a Normal-type move but was changed to Flying-type from Generation II onward. This move is one of the most basic Flying-type attacks, commonly learned at early levels by bird-like Pokémon. While Gust lacks additional effects like causing status conditions, it receives a power boost when used during certain weather conditions, such as strong winds, due to its compatibility with the move Tailwind. It’s particularly useful in battles involving Bug and Grass-type Pokémon, which are weak to Flying-type moves.
