Octillery is a remarkable Water-typed Pokemon. It's not-uncommon to see Octillery show up as a Gold/Silver opponent. This Pokemon deserves to see more play in the meta. There were no known abilities back in the Gold/Silver Pokemon games. Octillery's only type-related weaknesses are Electric and Grass.
Octillery is a spectacular Physical Sweeper. It was designed to take down the opponent's team with brute physical power. In the old days before Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type.
♦ Return is a physical 0-base power Normal-type move (max 102 power at maximum happiness). ♦ Hyper Beam is a physical 150-base power Normal-type move (Octillery cannot move next turn). ♦ Mud-Slap is a physical 20-base power Ground-type move (100% chance to lower the target's accuracy by 1 stage). ♦ Defense Curl is a status move (raises your Octillery's defense by 1 stage). ♦ Toxic is a status move (badly poisons the target).

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.
