Moves
User takes 1/4 the damage it inflicts in recoil.
User takes 1/3 the damage it inflicts in recoil.
Badly poisons the target. Never misses when used by a poison-type Pokémon.
Has a 30% chance to paralyze the target.
Raises the user’s Special Defense by two stages.
User falls to sleep and immediately regains all its HP. If the user has another major status effect, sleep will replace it. The user will always wake up after two turns, or one turn with early bird. This move fails if the Pokémon cannot fall asleep due to uproar, insomnia, or vital spirit. It also fails if the Pokémon is at full health or is already asleep.
Transfers 1/4 the user’s max HP into a doll that absorbs damage and causes most negative move effects to fail. If the user leaves the field, the doll will vanish. If the user cannot pay the HP cost, this move will fail. The doll takes damage as normal, using the user’s stats and types, and will break when its HP reaches zero. Self-inflicted damage from confusion or recoil is not absorbed. Healing effects from opponents ignore the doll and heal the user as normal. Moves that work based on the user’s HP still do so; the doll’s HP does not influence any move. The doll will block major status effects, confusion, and flinching. The effects of smelling salts and wake up slap do not trigger against a doll, even if the Pokémon behind the doll has the appropriate major status effect. Multi-turn trapping moves like wrap will hit the doll for their regular damage, but the multi-turn trapping and damage effects will not activate. Moves blocked or damage absorbed by the doll do not count as hitting the user or inflicting damage for any effects that respond to such, e.g., avalanche, counter, or a rowap berry. magic coat still works as normal, even against moves the doll would block. Opposing Pokémon that damage the doll with a leech move like absorb are healed as normal. It will also block acupressure, block, the curse effect of curse, dream eater, embargo, flatter, gastro acid, grudge, heal block, leech seed, lock on, mean look, mimic, mind reader, nightmare, pain split, psycho shift, spider web, sketch, swagger, switcheroo, trick, worry seed, and yawn. A Pokémon affected by yawn before summoning the doll will still fall to sleep. The doll blocks intimidate, but all other abilities act as though the doll did not exist. If the user has an ability that absorbs moves of a certain type for HP (such as volt absorb absorbing thunder wave), such moves will not be blocked. life orb and berries that cause confusion still work as normal, but their respective HP loss and confusion are absorbed/blocked by the doll. The user is still vulnerable to damage inflicted when entering or leaving the field, such as by pursuit or spikes; however, the doll will block the poison effect of toxic spikes. The doll is passed on by baton pass. It keeps its existing HP, but uses the replacement Pokémon’s stats and types for damage calculation. All other effects work as normal.
If the user is a ghost: user pays half its max HP to place a curse on the target, damaging it for 1/4 its max HP every turn. Otherwise: Lowers the user’s Speed by one stage, and raises its Attack and Defense by one stage each. The curse effect is passed on by baton pass. This move cannot be copied by mirror move.
No moves will hit the user for the remainder of this turn. If the user is last to act this turn, this move will fail. If the user successfully used detect, endure, protect, quick guard, or wide guard on the last turn, this move has a 50% chance to fail. lock on, mind reader, and no guard provide a (100 – accuracy)% chance for moves to break through this move. This does not apply to one-hit KO moves (fissure, guillotine, horn drill, and sheer cold); those are always blocked by this move. thunder during rain dance and blizzard during hail have a 30% chance to break through this move. The following effects are not prevented by this move: * acupressure from an ally * curse’s curse effect * Delayed damage from doom desire and future sight; however, these moves will be prevented if they are used this turn * feint, which will also end this move’s protection after it hits * imprison * perish song * shadow force * Moves that merely copy the user, such as transform or psych up This move cannot be selected by assist or metronome.
The user’s HP cannot be lowered below 1 by any means for the remainder of this turn. If the user successfully used detect, endure, protect, quick guard, or wide guard on the last turn, this move has a 50% chance to fail. This move cannot be selected by assist or metronome.
Has a 30% chance to poison the target.
Has a 100% chance to lower the target’s accuracy by one stage.
Only usable if the user is sleeping. Randomly selects and uses one of the user’s other three moves. Use of the selected move requires and costs 0 PP. This move will not select assist, bide, bounce, chatter, copycat, dig, dive, fly, focus punch, me first, metronome, mirror move, shadow force, skull bash, sky attack, sky drop, sleep talk, solar beam, razor wind, or uproar. If the selected move requires a recharge turn—i.e., one of blast burn, frenzy plant, giga impact, hydro cannon, hyper beam, roar of time, or rock wrecker—and the user is still sleeping next turn, then it’s forced to use this move again and pay another PP for the recharge turn. This move cannot be copied by mirror move, nor selected by assist, metronome, or sleep talk.
If the user is burned, paralyzed, or poisoned, this move has double power.

Targets the last opposing Pokémon to hit the user with a physical move this turn. Inflicts twice the damage that move did to the user. If there is no eligible target, this move will fail. Type immunity applies, but other type effects are ignored. This move cannot be copied by mirror move, nor selected by assist or metronome.
User digs underground for one turn, becoming immune to attack, and hits on the second turn. During the immune turn, earthquake, fissure, and magnitude still hit the user normally, and their power is doubled if appropriate. The user may be hit during its immune turn if under the effect of lock on, mind reader, or no guard. This move cannot be selected by sleep talk.
Has a 30% chance to make the target flinch.

Puts the target to sleep at the end of the next turn. Ignores accuracy and evasion modifiers. If the target leaves the field, this effect is canceled. If the target has a status effect when this move is used, this move will fail. If the target is protected by safeguard when this move is used, this move will fail. insomnia and vital spirit prevent the sleep if the target has either at the end of the next turn, but will not cause this move to fail on use.
Has a 100% chance to lower the target’s Speed by one stage.
Has a 20% chance to confuse the target.
The user attacks the target by showering it with water that's so cold it saps the target's power. This also lowers the target's Attack stat.

Scatters poisoned spikes around the opposing field, which poison opposing Pokémon that enter the field. A second layer of these spikes may be laid down, in which case Pokémon will be badly poisoned instead. Pokémon immune to either ground moves or being poisoned are immune to this effect. Pokémon otherwise immune to ground moves are affected during gravity. If a poison Pokémon not immune to ground moves enters a field covered with poisoned spikes, the spikes are removed. rapid spin will remove this effect from its user’s side of the field. defog will remove this effect from its target’s side of the field. This move does not trigger synchronize, unless the Pokémon with synchronize was forced to enter the field by another effect such as roar. Pokémon entering the field due to baton pass are not affected by this effect.
Raises the user’s Defense and Special Defense by one stage each. Stores energy for use with spit up and swallow. Up to three levels of energy can be stored, and all are lost if the user leaves the field. Energy is still stored even if the stat boosts cannot be applied. If the user uses baton pass, the stat boosts are passed as normal, but the stored energy is not.
Power is equal to 100 times the amount of energy stored by stockpile. Ignores the random factor in the damage formula. Stored energy is consumed, and the user’s Defense and Special Defense are reset to what they would be if stockpile had not been used. If the user has no energy stored, this move will fail. This move cannot be copied by mirror move.
