Effect
In battle
Due to having a positive priority, Quick Attack will always go before moves that have neutral priority. Quick Attack does damage to the target. In a Double Battle, Quick Attack can target any Pokémon around the user. In a Triple Battle, Quick Attack can only target a Pokémon that's adjacent to the user.
