On Smogon's Movedex: Generation V Generation VI Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Acid Spray (Japanese: アシッドボム Acid Bomb) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation V. It is considered to be a more effective version of Acid, due to their similar effect.

Effect

Acid Spray inflicts damage and lowers the target's Special Defense by two stages.

Acid Spray will not be able to lower the target's Special Defense if it has reached a level of -6 or a value of one, or if the target is behind a Substitute.
