Competitive Analysis

Cross Poison has the secondary effect of having a 10% chance to inflict poison, while critical hits land more easily. This is a recommended move to use for Poison-types due to the STAB they receive from this move.

Alternatives for this move include Poison Jab due to its wider damage and distribution, and Gunk Shot which is stronger but has less accuracy.
