It's a physical move because the user doesn't directly touch the opponent... so it's just a normal attack move;)

It's a regular attack move, not a Special attack.

It's not a contact move, so you don't have to worry about being hit with stuff like Effect Spores or Static, though.

Earthquake is a physical attack(Attack),in DP there many changes to the Mechanics but Earthquake will remain physical.

This thread is irritating. Nobody even mentioned that this, being 3rd gen, only works with the move types.
Earthquake is has a ground typing. Ground is physical. It has been physical since RBY.
My good Lord, this forums are getting as good as GameFAQs boards. Crammed full of newbs.

I loled at this.

It's pretty obvious that EQ is a physical move. Even if you couldn't look it up, it's common sense. =/ Get a girlfriend and a life? Get off your computer and go outside.

But yeah, EQ is physical, as many have stated.

for someone who hates stereo-types you sure are one. how would ou know if the person you are flippin' out on has a life?

yah earthquake is physical. for anyothers, just look at the move and think

does it hit them with solid matter or plasma?
rock/ground/steel/fighting/normal/ghost/bug/poison/flying all hit with solids, except ghost and poison
water/ice/lightning/fire/grass/psychic/dark/dragon/all use energy/ki/chi/chakra/mana or whatever
