Knock Off Competitive Analysis

Knock Off is one of the staple moves in competitive play. This is simply due to the value it brings as it removes the target's held item. A Pokemon with no held item is at a clear disadvantage which is why this move has found a home in every generation its been part of.

Knock Off Locations

Knock Off can only be learned via Egg Move, Level Up, or by Default.
