{F}{F} → Knock Down : 20+
Your opponent flips a coin. If tails, this attack does 20 damage plus 20 more damage; if heads, this attack does 20 damage.

    Normally, if an attack uses a coin flip to determine the amount of damage it does, the player who controls the Pokemon flips the coin, not their opponent. As far as I can tell, this is one of only two exceptions (the other being Dugtrio SW #24)

      Looks like the Bench Manipulation attack also has your opponent flip coins to determine the damage dealt–very flavorful!

      Ambipom MT doesn’t let your opponent flip for damage, but it has a unique effect letting your opponent flip.
