Swift Swim Effect
When the Pokemon is damaged by an opposing Pokemon, its movement speed is increased for a short time. This effect goes on cooldown after it's triggered. When this Pokemon or neaarby ally Pokemon take damage, the headache gauge increases. When the headache gauge is full, a mysterious power is triggered, shoving nearby opposing Pokemon. While the mysterious power is active, moves are boosted and their cooldowns are reduced.
How to Use Swift Swim
Utilize the Movement Speed Boost
When Psyduck takes damage from an opponent, it gains increased Movement Speed for a short time. Utilize this buff to escape or chase opponents depending on the situation.
Utilize the Headache Gauge
When Psyduck or nearby ally Pokemon takes damage, Psyduck's Headache guage fills up. Once the gauge is full, Psyduck triggers a mysterious power, shoving nearby opposing Pokemon as a result and boosting its moves and their cooldowns.
The shove effect can be useful during teamfights as it's another form of crowd control. Make sure to also use the boosted version of Psyduck's moves to deal more damage.
Swift Swim Patch History
| 1.17.1.6 | Headache gauge effect decreased by 25%. Movement speed buff decreased from 70% to 40% (Decreased by 10% every 0.5s). |
