How to use it
Any Rock-type attack becomes Max Rockfall 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 Volcalith.

How it works in Gen VIII
Power is equal to the base move's power. If this move is successful, the effect of Sandstorm 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 Rock-type attack Dynamax Pokémon use. The user summons a sandstorm lasting five turns.”
