Kangaskhan stands out as a distinguished Physical Sweeper in single battles. This technique aims to crush rivals using overwhelming physical attacks. Remember prior to Generation IV, a move's damage category was determined by its type. Choice Band will increase the damage of Kangaskhan's physical moves by 1.5x at the cost of locking you into the first move you pick. The Shell Bell item option is to help Kangaskhan recover from the recoil damage it may take from Double-Edge. With Early Bird, Kangaskhan's sleep counter drops by 2 instead of 1.
◆ Double-Edge is a physical STAB-boosted 120-base power Normal-type move (has 1/3 recoil). ◆ Return is a physical STAB-boosted 0-base power Normal-type move (max 102 power at maximum happiness). ◆ Earthquake is a physical 100-base power Ground-type move (hits adjacent pokemon. Power doubles on dig). ◆ Dig is a physical 60-base power Ground-type move (digs underground turn 1, strikes turn 2). ◆ Shadow Ball is a physical 80-base power Ghost-type move (20% chance to lower the target's special defense by 1 stage). ◆ Brick Break is a physical 75-base power Fighting-type move (destroys screens, even if the target is immune). ◆ Seismic Toss is a physical 0-base power Fighting-type move (does damage equal to your Kangaskhan's level).
