  • This is the only move that can have a chance of freezing higher than 10%.
  • Despite what its various animations may imply, Secret Power will always be Normal-type.
  • Secret Power is one of the two non-Ice-type move that can freeze the target. Also, both of these moves are Normal-type.
    • Secret Power is also the only Normal-type move able to cause poisoning.
