Trivia

  • Pokémon Stadium 2 makes available a special Gligar that knows Earthquake, a move it cannot have legally otherwise in Generation II.
  • In Generations III and IV all of the final evolved starters could learn Earthquake by TM26.
  • Tyranitar is the only Pokémon who learns Earthquake by leveling up to not gain STAB when used.
  • This move caused, for the first time ever, an episode being banned in Japan first, due to the 2004 Chuetsu earthquakes having struck the country a couple of weeks before the episode in question was intended to air.
  • Earthquake has the highest fixed attack power of any move with 100% accuracy and no drawbacks (tied with Judgment). This is mitigated by the sheer number of Pokémon immune to ground type moves by being Template:Type2 or having Levitate.
