Water Pledge

WaterSpecial

Water Pledge deals damage at base power 80. If a teammate uses Grass Pledge or Fire Pledge in the same turn, the moves combine into one attack of base power 160 and added effects appear. The faster Pokémon moves first but waits for the other Pokémon to make their move. When the slower Pledge user moves, the combo attack hits the Pokémon the slower user was targeting. If Water Pledge is used with Grass Pledge, the move animation shows Grass Pledge and a swamp envelops the foe's team that halves the opponents' speed for 4 turns. If Water Pledge is used with Fire Pledge, the move animation shows Water Pledge and a rainbow appears in the sky on your team's side that doubles the chance of moves' secondary effects occurring for 4 turns.
