Magnet Rise is an example of a move.
A Move is an ability used by a Pokémon during a Pokémon Battle. Moves are mainly used to inflict damage on the opponent. Moves usually come from a natural ability of the Pokémon that can use it. Some moves can be used both inside and outside of battle. When outside of battle, moves are usually used for transportation or for removing a certain obstacle that the player runs into in the game. There are three types of moves: Physical, Special, and Status, each holding a different kind of effect when used. From Generation IV onward, every individual move is designated as either physical or special, independent of its type. Every move has its own accuracy, determining the probability of it hitting. All moves have an elemental type associated with them; depending on the type of Pokémon one faces, this can make a move "super effective", "not very effective", or have no effect at all.
Moves are referred to as attacks in the 4Kids Entertainment dub of Pokémon the Series, while in the Pokémon USA dubbing of the series, they are referred to as moves.
