Sandygast

Drains half the damage inflicted to heal the user.

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.

Drains half the damage inflicted to heal the user.

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.

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%.

User and target switch abilities. Ignores accuracy and evasion modifiers. If either Pokémon has multitype or wonder guard, this move will fail.

Lowers the PP of the target’s last used move by 4. If the target hasn’t used a move since entering the field, if it tried to use a move this turn and failed, or if its last used move has 0 PP remaining, this move will fail.

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.

Heals the user depending on the amount of energy stored by stockpile: 1/4 its max HP after one use, 1/2 its max HP after two uses, or fully after three uses. 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.

If the user leaves the field, this effect ends. Has a 3/8 chance each to hit 2 or 3 times, and a 1/8 chance each to hit 4 or 5 times. Averages to 3 hits per use. rapid spin cancels this effect.

User’s critical hit rate is one level higher when using this move.

Spreads sharp rocks around the opposing field, damaging any Pokémon that enters the field for 1/8 its max HP. This damage is affected by the entering Pokémon’s susceptibility to rock moves. rapid spin removes this effect from its user’s side of the field.

If the target has a major status ailment, this move has double power.

Inflicts damage equal to the user’s level. Type immunity applies, but other type effects are ignored.

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.

Prevents any Pokémon on the opposing side of the field from using any move the user knows until the user leaves the field. This effect is live; if the user obtains new moves while on the field, these moves become restricted. If no opposing Pokémon knows any of the user’s moves when this move is used, this move will fail.

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.

Puts the target to sleep.

If the user faints before its next move, the Pokémon that fainted it will automatically faint. End-of-turn damage is ignored. This move cannot be selected by assist or metronome.
