Vital Throw deals damage with lower priority, so most attacks will take place before it. Vital Throw ignores changes to the Accuracy and Evasion stats. However, it will not hit Pokémon during the invulnerable stage of Bounce, Dig, Dive, Fly, Shadow Force or Sky Drop.

When a Pokémon is holding Fightinium Z and uses its Z-Power, Vital Throw turns into All-Out Pummeling and has base power 140.
