Thunder Wave: evolution and compatible Pokémon

Attack behavior diagram

Details

The marked zone triggers after a 0.45-second warning. Surviving enemies are stunned for the listed duration; bosses use 35% of that duration. Only targets inside at impact are affected.

Level-up card effects

Levels

These are the initialized move parameters at each level, before player upgrades, type effectiveness and weather. Damage is per hit, not universal single-target DPS. Full-circle arcs display as 360°.

Move evolution

Reach the move’s maximum level, take its required stat card during this run, then choose its evolution card. Permanent upgrades do not substitute for that card.

Learnable moves

Current evolved attacks

All 97 original evolved moves now display their base localized name followed by “ +”. Requirements and evolution modifiers stay the same; previous names remain searchable aliases. Meteor Mash is now damage 24, radius 48 and knockback 70 (previously 34/54/80); cooldown 1.4 s and count 2 are unchanged. Every level and evolved output is calculated from this updated base.

Original and embedded edition

These additions apply to the pinned original release 1a52cc838c. The embedded community game uses its separate published rules snapshot: its Meteor Mash and legacy evolution names are retained by the Community model, and the new original-only Orbs, Plate scoring and item-break assumptions are not applied to it.

TM compatibility

Only the listed compatible, off-type TMs can add new moves. Type + Normal natural moves need no TM. Teaching consumes one unused TM permanently; known moves cannot be taught twice. Taught moves join level-up cards and non-buff starting choices. Compatibility alone does not mean already learned.

Abilities

HP, weather and target conditions are explicit inputs. Ability startup precedes cards/items. Frame-based random/proc effects are reported separately; sustained DPS still needs your hit/occupancy assumptions. Hustle expectation averages rounded weak/normal branches. Absorb/dodge grant 0.3s invulnerability; pure damage bypasses them.
