Focus Punch (move)

Focus Punch (Japanese: きあいパンチ Fighting Spirit Punch) is a damage-dealing Dream-type attack.

Effect
Focus Punch, on the turn it is selected, will display a message stating the user is tightening their focus. This message has a priority of +6, so it will display before any switches are made. The attack itself has a priority of -3, and if the user is attacked directly before actually landing the Focus Punch, the user will flinch and their turn is wasted.

If the user is behind a Substitute then the move will work without fail as the Substitute is the one being attacked and not the user.

Focus Punch can also be used as part of a Puppet Contest combination, with the user gaining extra two appeal points if the attack Focus Energy or Bulk Up was used in the prior turn.
