>>23223144Tough Claws itself isn't an ability that benefits only physical attacks(moves like EQ and Stone Edge don't get the boost.) It benefits moves that are categorized to make contact, not moves that are categorized to do only physical damage. Special attacks like Draining Kiss and Grass Knot get the TC boost because they make contact. Despite the ability benefiting mostly physical attacks, that is not what Tough Claws was designed for.
>>23223201But Tough Claws already does that. A special equivalent of that ability should benefit all attacks that don't make contact. Which means physical moves like Gunk Shot, Icicle Crash and Psycho Cut would get the boost.
