Revenge (リベンジ, Revenge) is Incineroar's down special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
Revenge is a counterattack. Unlike most counterattacks, Incineroar still takes damage, albeit at a reduced rate than normal (and knockback is completely negated), and the initial counterattack from Revenge is not particularly powerful. However, successfully countering a hit with Revenge uniquely powers up Incineroar's next move; as a visual indicator, Incineroar will emit a bright orange glow. The power-up goes away either from a period of time passing, or by taking too much damage before using it, or from getting grabbed. When buffed, Incineroar's smash attacks get a zoom effect much like other powerful attacks. Multiple Revenges can also be stacked, giving OHKO potential to many of its attacks.
Origin
Revenge is a physical Fighting-type move introduced in Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire. It forces the user to move last and has 60 base power, which is doubled if the user takes damage in the same turn before attacking. Incineroar can only learn it by Breeding.
Trivia
- Despite only being a Fighting-type attack, the initial counterhit from Revenge deals flame damage.
