Grass Knot (Japanese: くさむすび Grass Rope) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV that deals varying damage. It shares the same mechanic as the move Low Kick.

Grass Knot doesn't have a standard Power; rather, it inflicts greater damage on a heavier target. Grass Knot's power is calculated as follows:

Target's Weight	Power
0.1 - 22 lb.	20
22.1 - 55 lb.	40
55.1 - 110 lb.	60
110.1 - 220 lb.	80
220.1 - 440 lb.	100
440.1 lb. or more	120
