The picture used in this article is unsatisfactory. Please feel free to replace it so it conforms to Bulbapedia conventions. Reason: Should be replaced with Generation VII images |

This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: Whether it is affected by Serene Grace in Gen III and IV Effects in the Orre games - the animation stays the same but not the effects You can discuss this on the talk page. |

Trivia
- Secret Power is the only move that can have a chance of freezing higher than 10%, excluding Blizzard in the Japanese Generation I handheld games.
- Secret Power is the only Normal-type move able to cause poisoning, excluding moves that have been changed to Normal-type by Normalize.
- Secret Power only uses the animations of damage-dealing moves.
- In Generation IV and V as well as Pokémon X and Y, Secret Power only uses the animations of single-target moves.
- In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Secret Power uses the animation of Incinerate in a volcanic area and the animation of Swift in space, the only instances of it using the animation of a multi-target move in Generation VI.
- As a result, it has a unique animation when used in Horde Encounters in volcanic areas (there are no battles with multiple opponents in space). Incinerate shoots fireballs at all opponents, whereas Secret Power only shoots a fireball at the target. This is the only instance in the core series games that Secret Power has a unique animation.
