Effect

Generations I and II

Low Kick has a power of 50, an accuracy of 90%, and has a 30% chance of causing the target to flinch.

Low Kick cannot make a target with a substitute flinch.

Generations III to VII

Low Kick now has 100% accuracy, and its power is now dependent on the weight of the target, inflicting greater damage on heavier targets. Its power is calculated as follows (note that the games use weight in kilograms instead of pounds for all the cutoffs):

Target's weight		Power
metric	US customary	Power
0.1 - 9.9 kg	0.1 - 21.8 lbs.	20
10.0 - 24.9 kg	21.9 - 55.0 lbs.	40
25.0 - 49.9 kg	55.1 - 110.0 lbs.	60
50.0 - 99.9 kg	110.2 - 220.2 lbs.	80
100.0 - 199.9 kg	220.4 - 440.7 lbs.	100
200.0 kg or more	440.9 lbs. or more	120

Low Kick is no longer able to cause the target to flinch.

Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!

	This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: Does damage account for variations in weight, or still based on average/Pokédex weight? You can discuss this on the talk page.

Generation VIII

Like all other weight-based moves, Low Kick will fail if used against a Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokémon.

Trivia

The English dub of Ash and Trip's Third Battle! mistakenly refers to Low Sweep as Low Kick, because the former is called ローキック Low Kick in Japanese versions.
This move is based on the sumo technique, "ketaguri", a kimarite in which the attacker leaps aside at the tachiai and sweeps his opponent's front leg from the inside while slapping the shoulder or pulling the arm.
