Magnitude

Ground

Summary

Magnitude is a Ground-type move with variable power that ranges between 10 and 150, depending on a randomly generated magnitude level from 1 to 10. It has 100% accuracy, meaning it never misses under normal conditions. Each magnitude level has different probabilities of occurring, with higher magnitudes being rarer. Magnitude is particularly intriguing because its power can vary wildly, making it a gamble in critical situations. It also affects all adjacent Pokémon in battle, which can be a double-edged sword in both double battles and horde encounters. Due to its variability, it is often favored in casual play for its potential high reward, despite the inherent risk.
