Effects

Fire Pledge deals damage at base power 80. If a teammate uses Grass Pledge or Water Pledge in the same turn, the moves combine into one attack of base power 160 and added effects appear.

The faster Pokémon moves first but waits for the other Pokémon to make their move. When the slower Pledge user moves, the combo attack hits the Pokémon the slower user was targeting.

If Fire Pledge is used with Grass Pledge, the move animation shows Fire Pledge and a sea of fire envelops the foe's team is created that damages opponents ¹⁄₈ of their maximum HP each turn, for 4 turns.

If Fire Pledge is used with Water Pledge, the move animation shows Water Pledge and a rainbow appears in the sky on your team's side that doubles the chance of moves' secondary effects occurring for 4 turns.

Changes

In Generation 5, Fire Pledge has 50 base power.
