Frenzy Plant (Japanese: ハードプラント Hard Plant) is a damage-dealing Grass-type move introduced in Generation III. Prior to Generation IX, only Grass-type fully evolved first partner Pokémon could learn this move. It is TM155 in Generation IX.

Effect

Frenzy Plant inflicts damage and then forces the user to recharge during the next turn. Unless this attack misses, the user will always have to recharge.

Frenzy Plant can be used as the second move of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining 4 bonus appeal points if Growth was used in the previous turn.

Frenzy Plant inflicts damage. If the move hits the target successfully, the user is inflicted with the recoil status condition for 1 turn (prior to Gates to Infinity, this move inflicted the Paused status condition), preventing them from acting on the next turn.
