Volt Tackle is a physical Electric-type move that is as powerful as its special-counterpart, {{b|Thunder|Pokémon}}, though Thunder's power was slightly nerfed in Generation VI while Volt Tackle kept its power. While having the covetted 100% accuracy, it has a drawback of the user receiving recoil damage equal to one-third inflicted to the target. A weaker version, {{iw|bulbapedia|Wild Charge}}, was introduced in Generation V, which can be learned by many Electric-type Pokémon. | Volt Tackle is a physical Electric-type move that is as powerful as its special-counterpart, {{b|Thunder|Pokémon}}, though Thunder's power was slightly nerfed in Generation VI while Volt Tackle kept its power.
