Horn Leech Effect

Horn Leech In-Game.jpg

Has the user charge forward, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon in its path and shoving them as it charges. Colliding with an opposing Pokémon while charging recovers the user’s HP, and the lower the user’s remaining HP, the more HP is recovered. At the end of the charge, the opposing Pokémon that were shoved are dealt additional damage and then thrown. After this move hits an opposing Pokémon, the mechanics of the user’s next three basic attacks change. These changed basic attacks deal increased damage and reduce this move’s cooldown when they hit.

How to Use Horn Leech

Chasing Enemy Pokemon

You can use Horn Leech to close the distance between you and your target. Although the dash is a bit slow, it should still be enough to catch up to enemies.

Shove Enemies Towards Your Team

Use Horn Leech to shove enemies towards your team, setting up for potential combos. You can also just shove them towards a nearby wall to hold them in place.

Hit Multiple Enemies

Try to hit as many enemies as you can while dashing, this heals you for each enemy you hit. The more enemies you hit, the more HP you'll recover.

Follow Up with Attacks

After using Horn Leech, your next three basic attacks deal increased damage and reduce the move's cooldown when they hit. Try to follow up with attacks after the move ends, making the most out of the effect.
