Payback Competitive Analysis

Payback is a strong Dark-type move with its base 50 power. However, the value lies in its effect where it says that Payback will deal twice the damage if the user moves after the target.

The effect makes it that Payback is more valuable on slow Pokemon to ensure that it moves after the target.

Note that it also counts if the target uses an item before Payback.
