Brick Break (Japanese:かわらわりTile Break) is a damage-dealingFighting-typemove introduced inGeneration III.

It is:

Effect

Generation III

Brick Break removesLight Screen andReflect from the opponent's side of the field (even if it targets an ally), then inflicts damage. It will remove Light Screen and Reflect even if the target is immune to Brick Break (i.e. aGhost-type Pokémon). It will not remove Light Screen or Reflect if Brick Break misses or the target isprotected from Brick Break.

Due to an oversight, the trainer AI does not check for Light Screen when determining to use Brick Break.

Brick Break can be used as the second move of aPokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining 1 bonus appeal point ifFocus Energy was used in the previous turn.

Generation IV

Brick Break now removesLight Screen andReflect from the target's side of the field, even if the target is an ally.

Generation V onwards

Brick Break no longer removes Light Screen and Reflect if the target is immune to Brick Break.

Brick Break can also removeAurora Veil.

Trivia

  • In aPokémon Super Contest, because there is no target Pokémon, Brick Break destroys a small glass wall instead.
  • Bonsly andPupitar can learn Brick Break, despite not having any hands. However, their evolved forms do have hands, and in Pupitar's case, its pre-EvolutionLarvitar does as well.
