Pound is based off a move of the same name in the [[Pokemon (universe)|Pokémon RPGs]]. In the Pokémon games, Pound is a basic physical Normal-type attack with no additional effects, similar to Tackle. Like Tackle, Pound is either naturally known or learned at a very low-level by many Pokémon. Pound is slightly superior to Tackle though, since its base power is 40 instead of 35 and its accuracy is 100 instead of 95. Due to its very low base power and the existence of superior Normal-type attacks, Pound is completely ignored in competitive play, being just an attack for low-level Pokémon to have when their trainer is unable to teach them a better move. | Pound is based off a move of the same name in the [[Pokemon (universe)|Pokémon RPGs]].
