Effect

Scratch inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.

Scratch can be used as the first move of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing Fury Swipes and Slash to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn. It can also be used to finish a combination, with the user gaining 4 bonus appeal points if Leer was used in the previous turn.

+'''Scratch''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ひっかく|Hikkaku}}''' ''Scratch'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].
 ==Effect==
 Scratch inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.
+Scratch can be used as the first move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing {{m|Fury Swipes}} and {{m|Slash}} to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn. It can also be used to finish a combination, with the user gaining 4 bonus appeal points if {{m|Leer}} was used in the previous turn.
