Bug Bite (Japanese: むしくい Bug Bite) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV.

Effect

Generation IV

Bug Bite inflicts damage. If the target is holding a Berry, the user will then eat the target's Berry and gain its effect. Bug Bite's Berry-stealing ability will not work on a target that is behind a Substitute.

Generation V

Bug Bite's power doubles to 120 if the target is holding a Berry. It steals and eats the Berry as usual.
