Waterfall is Squirtle's up special move. A torrent of water appears that Squirtle "surfs" on top of. The attack does multiple hits with minor knockback towards the end. It is difficult to interrupt as a recovery move, as the hitbox is large, disjointed, and directly in front of Squirtle. It is also possible that when the move is used, players can change it to move more vertical or horizontal by tilting it left, right, up or down on the control stick or d-pad.
Origin
Waterfall was introduced in Generation I. Starting in Generation II, Waterfall is an HM (Hidden Machine) that allows a Pokémon to learn Waterfall, which when used outside of battle, allows the player to go up and down waterfalls. In battle it is a physical Water-type attack with an above-average base power of 80, 100% accuracy, and a decent chance of causing the target to flinch.
