On Smogon's Movedex: Generation I Generation II Generation III Generation IV Generation V Generation VI Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Swift (Japanese: スピードスター Speed Star) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It is TM39 in Generations I and II.

Effect

	This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: Whether Swift can miss in Pokémon Stadium You can discuss this on the talk page.

Generation I

In the Western versions of the Generation I handheld games, Swift inflicts damage and bypasses accuracy checks to always hit. It can hit a Pokémon even during the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.

In the Japanese versions of the Generation I handheld games, Swift functions as a 100% accuracy move due to a glitch, unless the opponent is behind a substitute; if it is, Swift can never miss, even if the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.

Generation II onward

Swift now bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.

Swift hits opposing adjacent Pokémon in battles featuring multiple Pokémon.
