How it works in Gen VIII
This move can hit airborne Pokémon, which includes Flying-type Pokémon, Pokémon with the Levitate Ability, Pokémon holding an Air Balloon, and Pokémon under the effect of Magnet Rise or Telekinesis. If the target is a Flying type and is not already , this move deals neutral damage regardless of its other type(s). This move can hit a target using Bounce, Fly, or Sky Drop. If this move hits a target under the effect of Bounce, Fly, Magnet Rise, or Telekinesis, the effect ends. If the target is a Flying type that has not used Roost this turn or a Pokémon with the Levitate Ability, it loses its to Ground-type attacks and the Arena Trap Ability as long as it remains active. During the effect, Magnet Rise fails for the target and Telekinesis fails against the target.
“This move also hits opposing Pokémon that are in the air. Those Pokémon are knocked down to the ground.”
