Upon activating, {{s|bulbapedia|Incinium Z}} will briefly flash on the screen before Incineroar rushes forward to grab an opponent. Before the grab, anyone touching Incineroar will take mild damage and hitstun. If it connects, Incineroar will [[wikipedia:Professional wrestling throws#Irish whip|Irish whip]] its opponent into a wrestling ring and assault them with an uppercut, a dropkick and another uppercut before hitting them with a diving battering ram, the latter of which causes a giant explosion upon landing on the wrestling ring. | Upon activating, {{s|bulbapedia|Incinium Z}} will briefly flash on the screen before Incineroar rushes forward to grab an opponent.

This can only hit 1 opponent. According to [[Masahiro Sakurai]], Max Malicious Moonsault is even faster and fiercer than the Z-Move it is based on. While the move can only connect on a single opponent, the finisher will also launch opponents who were nearby when the main opponent was grabbed. | ||
If this misses while Incineroar is on the ground, it'll slap its knee in frustration. | If this misses while Incineroar is on the ground, it'll slap its knee in frustration. | ||

{{s|bulbapedia|Z-Move}}s are a mechanic introduced in [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Sun and Moon|''Pokémon Sun'' and ''Moon'']]. They are an exceptionally powerful variant of the move they are based on. To use a Z-Move, a Pokémon must be holding the {{s|bulbapedia|Z-Crystal}} corresponding to the type of intended move, and their trainer must have a {{s|bulbapedia|Z-Ring}} or {{s|bulbapedia|Z-Power Ring}}. | {{s|bulbapedia|Z-Move}}s are a mechanic introduced in [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Sun and Moon|''Pokémon Sun'' and ''Moon'']].

Although any Pokémon is capable of using Z-Moves, a select group of Pokémon have signature Z-Moves. {{s|bulbapedia|Malicious Moonsault}} is a Dark-type Z-Move exclusive to Incineroar, which acts as a powered-up version of its {{s|bulbapedia|signature move}}, [[Darkest Lariat]]. Upon activation, Incineroar summons a wrestling ring underneath the target. It then charges toward the ring, leaps onto one of its top turnbuckles, uses its flame belt to engulf itself in flames, and then performs a [[wikipedia:Professional wrestling aerial techniques#450° splash|450° splash]] that generates a massive explosion to engulf the ring. In the games, its base power is 180, although its damage output is doubled if the target has used {{s|bulbapedia|Minimize}}. Like other Z-Moves, however, it has only 1 {{s|bulbapedia|Power Point}} (PP) | Although any Pokémon is capable of using Z-Moves, a select group of Pokémon have signature Z-Moves. {{s|bulbapedia|Malicious Moonsault}} is a Dark-type Z-Move exclusive to Incineroar, which acts as a powered-up version of its {{s|bulbapedia|signature move}}, [[Darkest Lariat]].

The boxing ring where the cinematic occurs is likely a reference to the {{s|bulbapedia|Battle Royal Dome}} located in the game's {{s|bulbapedia|Akala Island}}. Players can participate against three other opponents in Battle Royals that are located in a boxing ring, similar to the setting of Max Malicious Moonsault. | The boxing ring where the cinematic occurs is likely a reference to the {{s|bulbapedia|Battle Royal Dome}} located in the game's {{s|bulbapedia|Akala Island}}.
