The winning entry submitted for the contest from CoroCoro Comic's January issue, giving people the chance to name the new Dragon-type attack in the Diamond and Pearl games, has been announced in the May issue of CoroCoro. The statistics for this attack were in fact reiterated from the January issue of the magazine. The translation of this attack and its statistics are as follows:

  • Name: Meteoric Swarm
  • Attack Type: Dragon
  • Base Power: 140
  • Effect: Sharply lowers Sp. Attack (two-step reduction)

It is yet unknown whether the attack will be learned by a variety of Pokémon by means of TM, as is the case with Overheat in the Generation III games. Another possiblity is for the attack to be exclusive to a legendary Pokémon, similar to Deoxys' Psycho Boost.
