Smack Down is a Rock-type move introduced in Generation V that knocks Flying-types out of the sky. It is also known as TM23.

Description

Games	Description
BWB2W2 XYORAS SMUSUM SwShBDSPLA	The user throws a stone or projectile to attack an opponent. A flying Pokémon will fall to the ground when it's hit.
SV	The user throws a stone or similar projectile to attack the _target. If the _target is in the air, it will be knocked down to the ground.

Effect

In Battle

Smack Down deals damage and "grounds" the _target if it not not considered grounded (i.e. the _target Pokémon is a Flying Type, has the ability Levitate or is under the effects of Magnet Rise or Telekinesis). This prevents the _target from switching out if an opposing Pokémon has Arena Trap, makes it vulnerable to Ground-Type moves and will make it be affected by terrain. Pokémon under the effect of Smack Down cannot use Magnet Rise or be lifted by Telekinesis. Smack Down can hit a Pokémon while in a semi-invulnerable state using Fly or Bounce. If such happens, the _target Pokémon's move is cancelled.
