This same attack also deals 20 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon.

Signature attack

Max Discharge

This attack also does 20 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) (180 damage)

The key feature is that Max Discharge hits all of your opponent's active and bench Pokémon simultaneously. This allows you to clear out their support cards quickly without needing multiple turns or attacks.
