Raises Power of Next Attack

Charge is a stat-boosting move that raises the power of the user's next attack. The buffs can only be applied to the user of the move and cannot target anyone else.

Charge is Found in Tactics

Unlike most other Badge moves, Charge can be found under Tactics instead of Attack. If only the Charge badge is equipped, it will only appear in Mario's Tactics. If the Charge P badge is equipped, it will appear in the active partner's Tactics.
