Moves
User charges for one turn before attacking. During sunny day, the charge turn is skipped. During hail, rain dance, or sandstorm, power is halved. This move cannot be selected by sleep talk.
Raises the user’s evasion by one stage.
Has a 30% chance to paralyze the target.
Erects a barrier around the user’s side of the field that reduces damage from special attacks by half for five turns. In double battles, the reduction is 1/3. Critical hits are not affected by the barrier. If the user is holding light clay, the barrier lasts for eight turns. brick break or defog used by an opponent will destroy the barrier.
Erects a barrier around the user’s side of the field that reduces damage from physical attacks by half for five turns. In double battles, the reduction is 1/3. Critical hits are not affected by the barrier. If the user is holding light clay, the barrier lasts for eight turns. brick break or defog used by an opponent will destroy the barrier.
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.
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 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.
Protects Pokémon on the user’s side of the field from major status effects and confusion for five turns. Does not cancel existing ailments. This effect remains even if the user leaves the field. If yawn is used while this move is in effect, it will immediately fail. defog used by an opponent will end this effect. This effect does not prevent the confusion caused by outrage, petal dance, or thrash.
Changes the weather to sunshine for five turns, during which fire moves inflict 50% extra damage, and water moves inflict half damage. If the user is holding heat rock, this effect lasts for eight turns. Pokémon cannot become frozen. thunder has 50% accuracy. solar beam skips its charge turn. moonlight, morning sun, and synthesis heal 2/3 of the user’s max HP. Pokémon with chlorophyll have doubled original Speed. Pokémon with forecast become fire. Pokémon with leaf guard are not affected by major status effects. Pokémon with flower gift change form; every Pokémon on their side of the field have their original Attack and Special Attack increased by 50%. Pokémon with dry skin lose 1/8 max HP at the end of each turn. Pokémon with solar power have their original Special Attack raised by 50% but lose 1/8 their max HP at the end of each turn.
If the user is burned, paralyzed, or poisoned, this move has double power.
Boosts the power of the target’s moves by 50% until the end of this turn. This move cannot be copied by mirror move, nor selected by assist or metronome.

Pokémon on the user’s side of the field are immune to stat-lowering effects for five turns. guard swap, heart swap, and power swap may still be used. defog used by an opponent will end this effect.
Changes the weather to rain for five turns, during which water moves inflict 50% extra damage, and fire moves inflict half damage. If the user is holding damp rock, this effect lasts for eight turns. thunder has 100% accuracy. If the target has used detect or protect, thunder has a (100 - accuracy)% chance to break through the protection. solar beam has half power. moonlight, morning sun, and synthesis heal only 1/4 of the user’s max HP. Pokémon with swift swim have doubled original Speed. Pokémon with forecast become water. Pokémon with dry skin heal 1/8 max HP, Pokémon with hydration are cured of major status effects, and Pokémon with rain dish heal 1/16 max HP at the end of each turn.

Has a 70% chance to raise the user’s Special Attack by one stage.

Inflicts typeless regular damage at the end of the third turn, starting with this one. This move cannot score a critical hit. If the target switches out, its replacement will be hit instead. Damage is calculated at the time this move is used; stat changes and switching out during the delay won’t change the damage inflicted. No move with this effect can be used against the same target again until after the end of the third turn. This effect breaks through wonder guard. If the target is protected by protect or detect on the turn this move is used, this move will fail. However, the damage on the third turn will break through protection. The damage is applied at the end of the turn, so it ignores endure and focus sash. This move cannot be copied by mirror move.
Damage calculation always uses the target’s Defense, regardless of this move’s damage class.
Power is increased by 100% its original value for every stage any of the user’s stats have been raised. Accuracy, evasion, and lowered stats do not affect this move’s power. For a Pokémon with all five stats modified to +6, this move’s power is 31×.
User switches position on the field with the friendly Pokémon opposite it. If the user is in the middle position in a triple battle, or there are no other friendly Pokémon, this move will fail.
Changes the terrain to Psychic Terrain for 5 turns. Overrides electric terrain, grassy terrain, and misty terrain. All Pokémon on the ground are immune to moves with priority greater than 0. (Moves that target the field rather than individual Pokémon, such as spikes, are not affected.) Additionally, when a Pokémon on the ground uses a psychic-type move, that move’s power is increased to 1.5×. If a Pokémon is holding a Terrain Extender when creating Psychic Terrain (by any means), the effect lasts for 8 turns instead of 5.
Heals the user for half its max HP. During sunny day, the healing is increased to 2/3 max HP. During hail, rain dance, or sandstorm, the healing is decreased to 1/4 max HP.
User and target permanently swap held items. Works even if one of the Pokémon isn’t holding anything. If either Pokémon is holding mail, this move will fail. If either Pokémon has multitype or sticky hold, this move will fail. If this move results in a Pokémon obtaining choice band, choice scarf, or choice specs, and that Pokémon was the latter of the pair to move this turn, then the move it used this turn becomes its chosen forced move. This applies even if both Pokémon had a choice item before this move was used. If the first of the two Pokémon gains a choice item, it may select whatever choice move it wishes next turn. Neither the user nor the target can recover its item with recycle. This move cannot be selected by assist or metronome.
For five turns (including this one), all immunities to ground moves are disabled. For the duration of this effect, the evasion of every Pokémon on the field is lowered by two stages. Cancels the effects of bounce, fly, and sky drop. Specifically, flying Pokémon and those with levitate or that have used magnet rise are no longer immune to ground attacks, arena trap, spikes, or toxic spikes. bounce, fly, sky drop, high jump kick, jump kick, and splash cannot be used while this move is in effect. *Bug*: If this move is used during a double or triple battle while Pokémon are under the effect of sky drop, Sky Drop’s effect is not correctly canceled on its target, and it remains high in the air indefinitely. As Sky Drop prevents the target from acting, the only way to subsequently remove it from the field is to faint it.
Confuses the target.
Has a 10% chance to lower the target’s Attack by one stage.
For five turns (including this one), slower Pokémon will act before faster Pokémon. Move priority is not affected. Using this move when its effect is already active will end the effect. Pokémon holding full incense, lagging tail, or quick claw and Pokémon with stall ignore this effect.
