Iron Fist (Japanese: てつのこぶし, Hepburn: Fist of Iron) is an Ability introduced in Generation IV.
Moves
The user's Pokémon receives a 20% power boost for the following attacks.
Sucker Punch, which is known as Ambush in Japan, is not boosted. Its name is possibly based on a conditioning in Chinese Kung-Fu called 'iron palm' where the practitioner essentially forms calluses on their hands to increase damage done by punches and any other strikes with the hand.
