♦ Sludge Bomb is a physical STAB-boosted 90-base power Poison-type move (30% chance to poison the target). ♦ Sludge is a physical STAB-boosted 65-base power Poison-type move (30% chance to poison the target). ♦ Return is a physical 0-base power Normal-type move (max 102 power at maximum happiness). ♦ Body Slam is a physical 85-base power Normal-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Lick is a physical 20-base power Ghost-type move (30% chance to paralyze the target). ♦ Mud-Slap is a physical 20-base power Ground-type move (100% chance to lower the target's accuracy by 1 stage).

Note: The damage listed here under Versus is not actually calculated using the in-game damage formula. It is simply calculated using typing weaknesses and resistances from the selected type-matchup modifier along with STAB (if applied) to help sort through and give a general idea as to how powerful certain moves might be towards that selected typing after modifiers are applied. Several moves listed here may have additional effects that might alter actual damage output which are not factored on this specific list. Use damage calculators to find actual damage amounts.
