As part of this attack’s use, user throws the item it’s holding at the target and that item is consumed after damage calculation. This attack’s power depends on the item thrown this way. If this attack is successful, the thrown item takes effect on the target. Fails if the attack has no target or the user can’t throw items (item is not consumed in these cases). (User can throw items this way even if it has Klutz, but not if it’s under the effect of Embargo. If the attack is avoided with Protect or Detect, item is still consumed and the item’s identity is still revealed.)

Flag b: The target can use Protect or Detect to protect itself from this attack. Flag e: This attack can be used with Mirror Move.
