Editor's notes

Low Kick is a Fighting-type fast move in Pokémon GO. In raids it puts out 10.0 DPS and 10 energy/sec, so it charges your charged move quickly.

In GO Battle League it generates 8 energy and over 1 turn.

Notable Pokémon that can learn it include Pheromosa, Mienshao, Electivire and Gallade, which is where you will most often see it put to work.

What these stats mean

Power, energy, duration, DPS and the PvP numbers

Power: Base damage each use deals before type and stat multipliers.
Energy: Energy generated per use — it fuels your charged move.
Duration: Animation time. You cannot dodge or attack during it.
DPS: Damage per second — power × 1000 / duration.
PvP stats: GO Battle League runs on 0.5s turns with its own power and energy values, so they differ from the raid numbers.
