From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

Gyro Ball (Japanese: ジャイロボール Gyro Ball) is a damage-dealing Steel-type move introduced in Generation IV. It was TM74 from Generation IV to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. In Generation VIII, it is TR52.

Effect

Gyro Ball inflicts more damage the slower the user is compared to the target. Therefore, the larger the relative difference between the user's and target's Speed stat, the greater the damage. The base power is calculated by the following formula:

Base Power = min(150, (25 × Target's Current Speed / User's Current Speed) + 1)

The Speed values used in the calculation take all modifiers into account (including stat stages, paralysis, held items such as the Iron Ball, and Abilities such as Slush Rush). Effects that only modify movement order without affecting Speed (such as Trick Room and Stall) have no effect on Gyro Ball.

The maximum base power that can be reached with Gyro Ball is 150, if the target's Speed is at least 5.96 times the user's Speed.

Generations IV and V

If the user of Gyro Ball has a Speed stat that rounds down to 0, the stat will be treated as 1 in the power formula, to avoid having to divide by 0.

Generation VI

If the user of Gyro Ball has a Speed stat that rounds down to 0, the move's power is set to 1, entirely ignoring the above formula.

Pokémon with Bulletproof are immune to Gyro Ball.
