Effect
Noble Roar lowers the target's Attack and Special Attack stats by one stage. Pokémon with the Ability Soundproof are not affected by this move.
Noble Roar will become a Water-type move when used by a Pokémon with the Ability Liquid Voice. If the user is affected by Throat Chop, it will be unable to use this move for two turns.
If the user is holding a Throat Spray, the item will be consumed and the user's Special Attack stat will raise by one stage.
If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Noble Roar, the user's Defense stat rises by one stage, and can be used regardless of whether the user is affected by Throat Chop or not.
