- Other moves:
- Horn Leech: Trevenant heals, dashes, and pushes enemy Pokemons in its way shoveling them in its dashing direction.
- Wood Hammer: Trevenant creates a big hammer to hit his opponents and stun them.
- Spirit Chain: This move allows Trevenant to catch enemies in an aura that reduces enemies HP considerably at the cost of some portion of Trevenant HP. Since this is the first move of its type in the game, the actual mechanism and description might change.
