Feint Attack
Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 20 damage to that Pokémon. This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance, Poké-Powers, Poké-Bodies, or any other effects on that Pokémon.
The Feint Attack is useful because it bypasses Weakness, Resistance and other protective effects. This means it hits even if the target would normally take less damage or be shielded by abilities.
