Sand-Attack (Japanese: すなかけ Sand Attack) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I

Sand-Attack decreases the target's Accuracy stat by one stage. Sand-Attack will do nothing if the target's Accuracy stage is at -6, and will fail if the target has a Substitute or is under the effect of Mist.

Sand-Attack is a Template:Type2 move in this generation.

Generation II and on

The effects of Sand-Attack are the same as the previous generation, however it is now a Template:Type2 move. Although it is a Ground-type move, it still affects Template:Type2 Pokémon and those with the ability Levitate.
