    Fire-type moves are enough to cause first-degree burns, sometimes second to third degree, if the attack is strong enough.

    Water attacks leave you soaked, obviously. Surf is like getting struck by a tsunami, while Hydro Pump is like getting blasted by a high-pressure hose. Waterfall combines the impact of a tackle while leaving you soaked.

    Getting hit by Blizzard or Icy Wind is like getting hit by a snowstorm or a moderate cold breeze.

    Getting hit by Magical Leaf and Leaf Storm is like getting cut by leaves or paper.

    I remember seeing a topic like this (I'm not sure if it was you or elsewhere) but anyways, if a human gets hit by any of these attacks, some can be seriously fatal, injured, seriously injured or make the human appear stupid =B

    I would just like to specify that a human can be of female species too.

    But yeah, these attacks would seriously harm someone in real life. But if you take a look at the anime, when Ash ever gets shocked by Pikachu, he turns out fine after 3 seconds, and team rocket are always getting hit by Pokémon attacks and manage to blast off, but not actually injured, though this may just be because of the whole kids show, no violence thing.

    I agree with everyone else. Someone could get seriously injured. Mabye excluding a few of the SMALL wind attacks like gust. That move shouldn't even harm Pokemon.

    However, a move like Draco Meteor should and could wipe out a city! Think about it... Draco METEOR!

    No Miss Doronjo how dare you >:(

    Uh, sorry abut this, but you're really not allowed to duplicate threads.

    Only if the last post was more than a month away, then you are free to make a thread continuing the discussions. In this case, why I merged the two -- you've made a topic that was about the same topic, but with different moves.

    Anyhow, I don't think pokemon attacks are capable of killing; because in the anime, Ash always took a flamethrower from his CHarizard; even a Flame Wheel from his Monferno.

    That's the anime. It's a show for children.

    Say, for example, you are hit by a Scyther that used Slash.

    Would you say you would survive without losing a limb?

    Oh; if your talking about in real life, then that's a different story!
    We couldn't come out unscathed, true.

    But that's only assuming certain moves like slash; what about water attacks?

    Water gun from a pokemon would probably be stronger than you'd imagine. Hydro pump would have so much power it'd break through walls.

    We definitely wouldn't come out uninjured in any way. That's all I can say. The majority of these would either end in death, mutilation, or other serious injury. The mutilation part especially applies to moves like Stone Edge and X-Scissor.

    In the anime, we've seen humans get hit by a lot of moves, and they were somewhat uninjured. I remember in a recent episode, Ash intercepted a Shadow Ball from Trip's Lampent to protect some Venipede. It obviously hurt him, but he got back up just fine.

    Hydro Pump would do some massive damage, that's for sure. To a human; I'd say some broken bones, actually. Not the funnest.

    I'm sure the Razor Leaf would leave some cuts, but it wouldn't have the power to break any bones; IMO.

    Hydro pump
    Many broken bones and concussion from the impact, if one doesn't die then and there they'll certainly be unconscious and suffering from internal bleeding, and being unconscious makes drowning very likely.

    razor leaf
    A lot of shallow cuts, the victim should end up fine if tended to and allowed to recover.

    psychic
    I guess this might cause mental trauma and/or brain damage, but it's anyone's guess as to how severe.

    ice beam
    This could be like getting hit with a large mass of glass, except that it can also flash-freeze the victim. If one doesn't get frozen solid (from which they'll likely die of asthyxiation before hypothermia sets in, by the way), they may be too badly cut up, amongst other things, to live.

    blizzard; sheer cold
    See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypothermia
    But it would have to go on long enough to cause that.

    icy wind
    Just a single gust of cold wind? Probably benign.

    overheat; blast burn
    I'd imagine either move to hit like a small nuclear blast, since they're supposed to be powerful attacks.

    hyper beam
    I'm not sure what this attack even does, is it some sort of energy blast? Because I'm afraid 'pure' energy does not exist IRL. Let's say it's kinetic though, being a normal-type move — similar results to hydro pump/cannon, minus drowning obviously (but after having their chest caved in by a giant beam, one may be unable to breathe regardless).

    surf
    See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drowning

    shock wave; thundershock; thunderbolt
    See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_shock

    Gust
    A sudden wind that can blow one over, little harm in it really.

    Whirlwind
    This won't be life-threatening unless one gets blown into something, upwards, or off a high place. One can expect a broken limb or ribs, grazing and bruising if they land alive.

    Earthquake
    In itself, the ground shaking holds no risk to any animal. One'll fall over if they try to stand though.
    It's the other things an earthquake also causes to collapse that are harmful, results are variable.

    rock slide
    Rocks are heavy and they crush things, this should be obvious enough.

    x scizzor
    Moderate to severe bleeding, broken bones if it slices through them.

    flamethrower
    See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burn
    Third degree or worse.

    solar beam
    Blindness; severe burns; maybe radiation poisoning if it works that way.

    hydro cannon; shadow ball; will o wisp; seed bomb; Sludge bomb; leaf storm; dark pulse; silver wind; magical leaf; night slash; heal pulse; mud bomb; stone edge; rock blast; water pulse; dragon pulse; draco meteor; dark pulse; flash cannon
    I'm not familiar with these moves.


    If anyone has corrections for me or wants to elaborate on the moves I cannot, go ahead; I haven't played Pokemon in a long time.

    @Miss Doronjo : lol..No really I didn't want to make you feel sorry.I was just kidding.I understand why duplicate threads aren't allowed.And I wasn't angry.I just wanted to clear this up because I don't like people taking my jokes seriously :p ..Anyway,why are you even wondering about water attacks?Because it's just water? Surf would be like a 10m tidal wave.You would die for sure either by being swept away and knocked on debris,drowned or crashed if the wave fell directly on you.Hydro Pump would be like a fire hose only 5 times stronger.It would knock you off your feet and push you several meters away,break your bones,concussion from the impact and you would suffer internal bleeding for sure.Do you want me to go on with Hydro Cannon? lol...

    And I pretty much agree with all of you but especially with Cassino.Only things I disagree a bit are Razor Leaf and solar beam.Razor leaf would slash and slice the human severely.I think it could cut his fingers or neck(since the neck is really easy to cut).And it would leave some very deep cuts on his body.Very deep slashes.He would either die from bleeding if he didn't stop it or because his neck was cut off.Of course he could survive if his neck wasn't cut and he went to the hospital to have his wounds treated.
    Solar beam would be like a very hot energy.If the attack was lasted long enough it would burn you but not like fire,like energy.It would be a great mass of hot energy which would burn your skin down and it would almost evaporate you from the heat.But if it didn't last long enough then you would get permanently blind and you would survive with 3rd degree burns or worse all over your body. :)
