Drum Beating: Grass Physical Move with a Speed-Lowering Effect in Pokemon Champions
Drum Beating is a physical Grass attack in Pokemon Champions whose defining trait is a debuff: a hit lowers the target's Speed by one stage. That gives it a clear role in tempo-focused matchups, where slowing an opponent shapes turn order for the rest of a battle. Its profile covers the Grass typing, physical category, normal target selection, non-contact delivery, and the small group of learners.

Drum Beating Mechanics and Move Flags Explained
Drum Beating's flags shape how it behaves before any damage math starts. It is a physical Grass attack that makes no contact and carries no sound, punch, biting, slicing, bullet, wind, or powder marker, so abilities and effects keyed to those traits do not change its resolution. Each flag on this route is shown with its value, letting players connect the data to real battle interactions instead of guessing from the move summary alone.
