Swords Dance

TM04

Tackle

Swords Dance increases your Pokémon's Attack statistic by an amount equal to its initial value. Thus, the first use of this attack results in double the normal Attack score. The second use results in triple the normal Attack score, while the third use results in quadruple the normal Attack score. Effects are cumulative for a maximum of three uses. Further uses have no effect.

Note that like other statistics, Attack has a maximum value of 999. If a use of this attack would raise your Pokémon's Attack score beyond 999, it will instead raise it only to that value. If its Attack score has already reached 999, this attack will fail.

Also note that since the attacker's Attack statistic is being altered, only the effectiveness of Physical attacks, such as Hyper Beam and Sludge, will be increased. Damage caused by Special attacks like Ice Beam and Flamethrower, will not be affected.

For more information on the different kinds of attacks and how damage is determined for each of them, see the Attack Base Explanation.
