Trivia

• IfSecret Power is used on ordinary terrain in the Generation III games, it will have the animation of Slam.
• In the Spanish versions of theGeneration I games, Slam was mistranslated asPortazo, meaning "door slam". This error was carried over to subsequent releases, untilGeneration VI in which this was corrected toAtizar.
