Body Slam
“A Normal-type attack. Has a one-in-three chance of paralyzing the target if it hits.”
Body Slam is a Normal-Type attack move introduced in Generation I as TM Move TM08.
The user uses its massive bulk to slam into the opponent. The biggest pay-off of this move is the chance of the user Paralyzing its opponent. There is a 30% chance of this happening. The Nidoqueen was the first one using the Body Slam in our Tribute!
Larvitar used Stone Edge by Yggdrassal
Yggdrassal from the United States is an active part of the Game-Art-HQ Community since around three years now and contributed a good couple of video game artworks that are about games that are rarely getting any attention now.
He participated with a Timesplitters 3 entry as example and Rocket: Robots on Wheels as part of our Nintendo 64 Tribute this year. He joined the Pokémon Gen I Tribute with Dodrio in the first May week already and drew seven more of the little Gen I creatures. He also holds the record of the most submissions for our Gen II Pokemon tribute with not less than 11 of the 100 Pokemon being illustrated by him!

I recommend to check out his gallery where you can see a lot more video game fan art including more Pokémon love as well.
Stone Edge
“The user stabs the target from below with sharpened stones. Critical hits land more easily.”
Stone Edge is a Rock-type move first introduced in generation IV that has an incredibly power of 100. It can be upgraded to the Z-Move Splintered Sandstorms by Lycanroc when holding a Lycanium Z.
The move has an increased critical hit ratio and does not make contact with the opponent. Both Lavitar and Tyranitar are using the Stone Edge in our Art Collaboration!
#246 Larvitar
Born deep underground, it comes aboveground and becomes a pupa once it has finished eating the surrounding soil.
Larvitar is a Rock/Ground type Pokemon that evolves into Pupitar starting at level 30 and Tyranitar at level 55. It has a split gender ratio of 50/50 so there are an equal amount of both male and female Larvitar.
It can often be found living in mountains and hills as well as caves and appears to be based off a dinosaur. It’s name is derived from ‘larva’.
In the Pokemon anime, Ash hatched a Larvitar from an egg given to him by professor Elm that he was delivering back to its mother. The Larvitar that hatched would constantly use the move ‘Harden’ whenever anyone got near it, despite not actually being able to learn Harden in any Pokemon games.
