Struggle (Japanese: わるあがき, Vain Struggle) is a move in the Pokémon series. It is normally only used automatically after attempting to make a move when all of a Pokémon's available learned moves have ran out of PP.
Internally Struggle exists in the data with learned moves, and can be taught to a Pokémon via a glitch or cheating device.
Properties
In Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow it has 50 base power, 10 PP (with no PP Ups used) and 255/256 accuracy. When used in this way, its PP will not decrease. If Struggle is successful, the user will take recoil damage equal to ½ the damage dealt to the opponent.
As of Generation II onward, Struggle was changed to affect all Pokémon (including Ghost-types). In Generations II and III, it also had its internal PP changed to 1 and changed the amount of recoil damage to ¼ the damage dealt to the opponent.
In Generation IV onward, Struggle deals ¼ of the user's maximum HP as recoil damage rather than ¼ of the damage dealt to the opponent.
