Swagger (Japanese: いばる Swagger) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It was TM34 in Generation II before losing its TM status in Generation III. It regained its TM status, albeit as TM87, in Generation IV onwards. It is similar to Flatter.
Effect
Swagger raises the target's Attack stat by two stages and confuses it. Should the target already be confused, or be protected from confusion due to Safeguard, Swagger will still raise its Attack. Because the target's Attack increases, they will receive more damage if they hurt themselves.
