Firecracker

Firecracker is a damage-dealing Fire-type multi-strike move submitted by pokemonvortex. It was initially submitted on April 21, 2015, and accepted on December 30, 2015.

Effect
Firecracker inflicts damage, hitting the target 2-5 times per use. There is a 33.3% chance that it will hit 2 times, a 33.3% chance it will hit 3 times, a 16.7% chance it will hit 4 times, and a 16.7% chance it will hit 5 times. This means that it will hit about 3.168 times on average provided that it does not miss, giving it an average power of 79.2. Each strike made has an equal chance to be a critical hit.

Pokémon with the Ability Skill Link will always hit five times when using Firecracker unless it misses.

If a Focus Sash, Focus Band, or Sturdy activates before the last strike is dealt, the following strike will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. A Focus Band can still activate repeatedly to prevent fainting, but each chance is independent of the previous one.

Firecracker may continue attacking after breaking a substitute. Bide and Counter will only acknowledge the last strike of this move.

If the target has Weak Armor, each strike will activate it.
