Vital Throw is a Fighting-type move introduced in Generation II that was, until Generation III, the signature move of the Machop family.
Effect
In battle
Vital Throw causes physical damage to an adjacent Pokémon. This move is a decreased-priority move, meaning it moves after ordinary-priority moves, but also moves before other decreased-priority moves. It never misses unless the opponent is in an invulnerable state of a move such as Fly.
