Pokemon-go – Are there critical hit attacks

pokemon-go

Yesterday i was training in a gym. my pokemon easily won the 3 first pokemon and fainted in the forth one, 3 times in a row. always my pokemon had different HP but slightly similar. but one time my pokemon fainted fighting the 2nd pokemon … so i was wondering if are there Critical Hit attacks.

Best Answer

Yes, there are critical hits.

The critical strike rate depends on the attack itself.

See here:

    Items {
      TemplateId: "V0022_MOVE_MEGAHORN"
      Move {
        UniqueId: V0022_MOVE_MEGAHORN
        AnimationId: 5
        Type: POKEMON_TYPE_BUG
        Power: 55
        AccuracyChance: 1
   >    CriticalChance: 0.05
        StaminaLossScalar: 0.12
        TrainerLevelMin: 1
        TrainerLevelMax: 100
        VfxName: "megahorn"
        DurationMs: 3200
        DamageWindowStartMs: 2400
        DamageWindowEndMs: 2700
        EnergyDelta: -100
      }
    }

Or here:
