Strike: Sp. Def ↓ (Japanese: 命中時特防ダウン Special Defense Reduction During Direct Hit) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

When the Pokémon successfully lands an attack on the target, it has a chance of lowering the target's Sp. Def by one stat rank. If the Pokémon uses a move with the multistrike effect tag, such as Bullet Seed or Icicle Spear, each successful hit will have its own chance of lowering the target's Sp. Def by one stat rank. The skill can range from Strike: Sp. Def ↓ 1 to Strike: Sp. Def ↓ 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a higher chance of activation after each hit. Strike: Sp. Def ↓ 9 will always lower the target's Sp. Def by one stat rank after each hit. Currently, only Strike: Sp. Def ↓ 9 is available on scoutable sync pairs. The skill applies to the Pokémon's usual attack moves, including buddy moves, but not sync moves or max moves.
