Water Shuriken

WaterSpecial

Water Shuriken attacks with increased priority. Water Shuriken hits 2-5 times per turn used. The probability of each interval is shown in the table, with the total power after each hit. Each strike of Water Shuriken is treated like a separate attack: The move Counter only counters the final hit, but Bide counters the complete damage. The Skill Link ability will cause Water Shuriken to always hit the maximum number of times. If Battle Bond is active, Water Shuriken always hits 3 times, each with 20 base power.
