Astonish Effect

Astonish In-Game.jpg

Has the user let out a sound blast in a forward direction. The shout explodes when it hits an opposing Pokemon or after traveling a set distance, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon in the area of effect and decreasing their movement speed for a short time.

How to Use Astonish

Aim for Grouped Targets

Use Ashtonish on grouped opponents or wild Pokemon to make the most out of the move. The projectile explodes and deals damage to enemies around it when it hits a target, making it a great move to punish aggressive duos in lanes.

Combo with Quick Attack

Using Quick Attack to set up Ashtonish is a great way to quickly deal damage in the early game. Dash first with Quick Attack, then immediately follow up with Ashtonish and a few Standard Attacks. The slow from Ashtonish should give you enough room to land some Attacks before the enemy escapes.
