How to use it
Any Grass-type attack becomes Max Overgrowth while its user is Dynamaxed. It’s physical or special, as that move is, and its power comes from that move’s. Dynamax is in Sword & Shield, not in Pokémon Champions.
Gigantamax forms with a G-Max Move of this type use that instead: G-Max Vine Lash, G-Max Drum Solo, G-Max Tartness and G-Max Sweetness.

How it works in Gen VIII
Power is equal to the base move's power. If this move is successful, the effect of Grassy Terrain begins. This effect does not happen if the user is not Dynamaxed. If this move is used as a base move, it deals damage with a power of 0.
“This is a Grass-type attack Dynamax Pokémon use. The user turns the ground into Grassy Terrain for five turns.”
