Competitive Analysis

Self-Destruct can be used as a last-resort move since while it damages opposing Pokemon, this will also affect your ally Pokemon in Doubles as well as making the user faint.

Another option for a self-sacrificing move could be Explosion due to its higher base power.

Self-Destruct Locations

You may purchase Self-Destruct (TM20) from the woman in the Battle Tower for P10,000.
