Effects

Eruption inflicts more damage when the user's HP is higher. At full HP its base power is 150 and it decreases in proportion - i.e. the power is:

150 × CurrentHP ÷ MaxHP

Eruption is a counterpart move to Water Spout. It is also similar to Crush Grip and Wring Out, based on the user rather than the opponent.

Z-Move effects

When a Pokémon is holding Firium Z and uses its Z-Power, Eruption turns into Inferno Overdrive and has base power 200.
