Acupuncture is the process of puncturing with high accuracy. It is distinguished from precipuncture by not necessarily requiring all punctures to be close in proximity. Illegal acupuncture is known as stabbing.

Controversy
Eraser doesn't seem to like Acupuncture.[1] When asked, he had this to say: "I am Eraser and I do not like acupuncture." There has been no confirmation if he ever said this, so it is still on the fence whether it is true or not.
I also don't like it, I'm already getting queasy
Well... where did the term "acupuncture" come from?
The word "acupuncture" is a combination of both "puncture", which you get when stepping on sharp things, and "acu", which is an acronym meaning "a crazy uppercut". So, you can think of the word as meaning "a crazy uppercut from a nail". Thank you for your inquiry!

Pokémon
Not to be confused with Acupressure, but that doesn't matter, does it?
Acupressure (Japanese: つぼをつく Point Strike) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation IV. When used in battle, it will raise a random stat by 2 stages. It will not attempt to raise a stat that is already maximized at 6 stages. Coincidentally, there are also six Nailies in this article.

Overview
Meh... Maractus isn't the kind of Pokemon you want to set up with... You're better off using it as a spikes lead, and even then, it's not that good of a lead anyway. Acupressure's unreliability is just adding insult to injury, too. I guess you could use Sucker Punch or Endeavor if you don't get OHKO'd instantly. There are better leads, anyway. Just don't use Maractus, honestly. You should just use the meta every single time for a truly satisfying gameplay experience. We think using Landorus-T every single game is fun!
Oh... a moveset? this thing is just so unwanted...
Battle For Dream Island
As previously mentioned, the character known as Eraser experienced acupuncture and seemed very displeased.
One of the characters is also a needle. The President of Apuncture actually sponsors the show, so every episode she appears in grants a large amount of money to Jacknjellify. 6
