A charge that also hurts the user.
Brave Bird is a Flying-type physical move with a base power of 120 and an accuracy of 100%. It has a recoil effect that causes the user to take damage equal to one-third of the damage dealt to the target. This makes Brave Bird a high-risk, high-reward move that can deal significant damage but at the cost of the user's own health. In Polished Crystal, Brave Bird can be learned by various Flying-type Pokémon, providing them with a powerful offensive option that requires careful consideration of its recoil effect in battle.
