Works well if it is the same type as the move used by the last Pokémon.

Round (Japanese: りんしょう Round) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation V. It was TM48 from Generation V to Generation VII, and is TM76 in Generation VIII.

Effect

Round inflicts damage. If another Pokémon uses Round before the user this turn, the user will use Round directly after it (regardless of speed); all but the first Round within a turn will double in power to 120. Pokémon with the Ability Soundproof are not affected by this move.

Round will become a Water-type move when used by a Pokémon with the Ability Liquid Voice. If the user is affected by Throat Chop, it will be unable to use this move for two turns.

Round will have its power boosted by 30% when used by a Pokémon with the Ability Punk Rock. The damage dealt by Round will also be halved when used against a Pokémon with Punk Rock.

If the user is holding a Throat Spray, the item will be consumed and the user's Special Attack stat will be raised by one stage.
