Life Orb boosts the power of Omanyte's damaging moves by 1.3x but it then loses 1/10 its max HP immediately after the attack. With Swift Swim, if rain dance is active Omanyte's speed is doubled.
♦ Surf is a special STAB-boosted 95-base power Water-type move (hits adjacent pokemon. double damage on dive). ♦ Scald is a special STAB-boosted 80-base power Water-type move (30% chance to burn the target). ♦ Ice Beam is a special 95-base power Ice-type move (10% chance to freeze the target). ♦ Aurora Beam is a special 65-base power Ice-type move (10% chance to lower the target's attack by 1 stage). ♦ Ancient Power is a special STAB-boosted 60-base power Rock-type move (10% chance to raise all stats by 1 stage (not acc/eva)). ♦ Earth Power is a special 90-base power Ground-type move (10% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage). ♦ Mud Shot is a special 55-base power Ground-type move (100% chance to lower the target's speed by 1 stage).
