What Razor Leaf does
Razor Leaf is a Grass-type boomerang move. Two leaves that fly out and back, cutting both ways.
A Pokemon can learn it if it is Grass-type, which is true of 118 of the 966 Pokemon. It reaches you as a new-move card when you level up, as long as one of your four move slots is free. 4 Pokemon begin a run with it. Each level-up draws three cards by weight from up to six new-move candidates, your move upgrades and the stat cards, so even a good move can sit out several level-ups.
Razor Leaf stats by level
At level 1, Razor Leaf deals 10 damage with a 0.9 second cooldown. At level 5 that becomes 20 damage every 0.9 seconds.

How to use Razor Leaf
- Boomerang moves aim at an enemy touching you first, then at a boss within 330 pixels, then at the nearest enemy, and wait until a target is in reach before they fire. A crowd around you takes the hits before a boss does.
- Water, Ground, and Rock take 60% more damage from Grass moves, while Fire, Grass, Poison, Flying, Bug, Dragon, and Steel take 40% less. Enemies with two types multiply both effects. See the type chart.
- Other boomerang moves are Bonemerang and Psycho Cut. The moves list compares all 64.
- Each Reflexes card multiplies every cooldown by 0.92 and each Power card multiplies damage by 1.10. After 5 Reflexes cards the 0.9 second cooldown of Razor Leaf at level 1 becomes 0.59 seconds.
- Only the move group in your active slot fires, and every move in the group keeps its own cooldown timer. A bond, which a rift win gives you, fuses loose moves into one group.
- Weather can boost or weaken Grass moves: see the weather guide.
