Status condition

'''Status ailments''' affect a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s ability to battle. There are three kinds of status. The first are non-volatile, the second are volatile, and the third lasts while a Pokémon is in battle.

==Non-volatile status==
Non-volatile status ailments are status ailments that will remain until a Pokémon is healed at a [[Pokémon Center]], a specific [[status ailment healing item|curative item]] is used, or, in case of Freeze and Sleep, after a certain amount of turns during the battle. A Pokémon inflicted with a non-volatile status will still be affected after being pulled out of battle (unless they have the {{a|Natural Cure}} ability), and after a battle is over. It is only possible for a Pokémon to be afflicted by one of these at a time. In [[Generation III]] and beyond, certain [[Ability|abilities]] will cause or prevent them, as well as benefit from them.

===Burn===
[[File:Ursaring Burn status.png|thumb|250px|[[Paul's Ursaring]] burned]]
The burn condition reduces a Pokémon's Attack power by half (except for Pokémon with the {{a|Guts}} ability, where this condition raises Attack by 50%). Additionally, at the end of a turn, the Pokémon loses 1/8 its maximum hit points (in [[Generation I]] or in the case of Pokémon with the ability {{a|Heatproof}}, the Pokémon loses 1/16 of its maximum hit points). {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon and Pokémon with the {{a|Water Veil}} ability cannot be burned. All [[List of moves that burn|moves which can cause burn]] are Fire-type except for {{m|Tri Attack}} ([[Generation II]] onwards) and {{m|Fling}} when the [[Flame Orb]] is held.

===Freeze===
{{redirect|Freeze|the glitch|game freeze}}
[[Image:Frozen Pokémon.png|left|thumb|[[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] is frozen|250px]]
The freeze condition causes a Pokémon to be unable to make a move. Damaging {{type2|Fire}} moves used on a frozen Pokémon will remove the freeze status. As of [[Generation II]], freeze has a random, 10% chance to be cured on its own on the frozen Pokémon's turn. Consequently, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the turn of freezing; however, in [[Generation I]], a frozen Pokémon never thaws without external aid. Pokémon cannot be frozen in [[weather conditions#Intense sunlight|sunny weather]]; contrary to popular belief, sunny weather does not cause a quicker thawing.

{{type2|Ice}} Pokémon cannot be frozen by Ice-type moves; however, they can be frozen by Tri Attack. A frozen Pokémon can still use the moves {{m|Flame Wheel}}, {{m|Sacred Fire}} and {{m|Flare Blitz}} while frozen; these moves will thaw the user, thaw the opponent if possible, and deal damage to the opponent. All [[List of moves that freeze|moves which cause freezing]] are Ice-type except Tri Attack (Generation II onwards) and Secret Power (when used in snow or ice; [[Generation IV]] only). It is also the only non-volatile status which has no move that causes it 100% of the time. The only move to provide more than a 10% chance of freezing is {{m|Secret Power}} when used on snow or ice, which provides a 30% chance.

A frozen [[Sky Forme]] {{p|Shaymin}} will revert to its [[Land Forme]].

===Paralysis===
A Pokémon inflicted with paralysis will be unable to attack ("fully paralyzed") a quarter of the time. Additionally, its Speed is reduced to 25% of its previous value (except for Pokémon with the {{a|Quick Feet}} ability, where this condition raises the Speed by 50%). Many [[List of moves that paralyze|moves that cause paralysis]] are of the {{t|Electric}} type. {{t|Ground}} types can be paralyzed, however only if attacked by a non Electric-type move such as {{m|DragonBreath}} or {{m|Tri Attack}} (Generation II onwards), or if it uses an attack which makes contact on an opponent with the {{a|Static}} ability.

===Poison===
[[Image:Poisoned Pokémon.png|right|{{TP|Ash|Gliscor}} is poisoned|thumb|250px]]
A poisoned Pokémon loses 1/8 of its maximum hit points every turn (in [[Generation I]], it loses 1/16). {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned. {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned in [[Generation III]] and beyond; in [[Generation II]], a {{type2|Steel}} type Pokémon can only be poisoned by the poisoning effect of the move {{m|Twineedle}}.

A poisoned Pokémon also loses 1 hit point for every four steps taken while not in battle. In [[Generation IV]], a Pokémon whose HP is reduced to 1 via poison outside of battle will have the poison status removed. All [[List of moves that poison|moves that can poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Twineedle}}, {{m|Secret Power}}, and {{m|Fling}} (which poisons only if {{DL|In-battle effect item|Poison Barb}} is held).

===={{anchor|Badly poisoned|Bad poison}}====
The status ailment caused by {{m|Toxic}} and {{m|Poison Fang}}, as well as by {{m|Toxic Spikes}} after it is used twice, is the same as Poison except its damage begins at 1/16 and grows an additional 1/16 every turn, taking 2/16 max hit points the second turn, then 3/16 the third turn, and 4/16 the fourth, and so on. In [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], switching a Pokémon out of active battle would change the badly poisoned condition to normal poison. In [[Generation III]] and beyond, the "badly poisoned" effect will remain even after switching a Pokémon out of battle and back in, but the damage counter will be reset. After a battle is over, the "badly poisoned" status will become a normal poison. All [[List of moves that poison|moves which can badly poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Fling}} (which badly poisons only if {{DL|In-battle effect item|Toxic Orb}} is held).

===Sleep===
[[Image:Sleeping Pokémon.png|left|{{TP|Ash|Heracross}} sleeping|thumb|250px]]
A Pokémon that is asleep is unable to use any moves (in a situation almost identical to the Freeze condition), except for two special moves which may be used while asleep ({{m|Snore}} and {{m|Sleep Talk}}). Sleep lasts for a randomly chosen duration of 1 to 5 turns (1 to 3 in Stadium). Sleep may be self-induced for 3 turns (inclusive of the initial turn) using the move {{m|Rest}}, which will remove any other non-volatile status ailment. A [[Level#Disobedience|disobedient]] Pokémon may nap during battle, inducing the Sleep status. There are currently no [[List of moves that cause sleep|moves that cause sleep]] and damage together, though {{m|Secret Power}} is capable of doing so if it is used in long grass. In Generation I, a Pokémon that wakes up is not able to attack that same turn, but since Generation II, it is able to attack as soon as the sleep wears off.
{{-}}

==Volatile status==
A volatile status will wear off when a Pokémon is taken out of battle or a battle is over. Many of these will also wear off after a number of turns pass. All of these conditions may be passed to another Pokémon by using {{m|Baton Pass}} unless stated otherwise. Since they aren't shown in battle as a status aliment (having an icon) a Pokémon can be affected with multiple volatile ailments and a non-volatile aliment at the same time.

===Confusion===
A Pokémon will hurt itself in its confusion 50% of the time. The damage is done as if the Pokémon attacked itself with a 40-power typeless physical attack.

Confusion wears off after 1-4 attacking turns. This means that turns recharging, such as after using {{m|Hyper Beam}}, and turns unable to attack, such as from paralysis, will not lower the remaining number of turns of confusion. However, a sleeping Pokémon may hurt itself in confusion if using a move such as {{m|Snore}} or {{m|Sleep Talk}}.

Multi-turn attacks such as {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Dive}} require that confusion be checked both turns, further reducing the chance of successful attack. Pokémon with the {{a|Own Tempo}} ability are immune to [[List of moves that confuse|moves that cause confusion]].

Confusion is transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

A [[Ninja Boy]] on {{rt|211|Sinnoh}} erroneously states that confusion only wears off if the Pokémon is switched out.

===Curse===
If a {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon uses {{m|Curse}}, the Pokémon it is used on loses ¼ its maximum hit points every turn, and the user immediately loses half of their maximum hit points in exchange. If any non-{{t|Ghost}} type Pokémon uses Curse, their {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} go up one stage, and their {{stat|Speed}} drops one stage. If the victim of a Ghost-type Curse uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, the health-sapping effect is transferred to its replacement. If a Pokémon that has been afflicted by curse is switched out of battle, the effect is lifted. Also, in [[Generation II]], defeating the opponent will prevent the Pokémon it is used on taking damage from Curse on that turn.

===Flinch===
The flinch status is a one-turn status that prevents a Pokémon from attacking. A Pokémon can only flinch if the opponent attacks first. Pokémon with the {{a|Inner Focus}} ability are also immune to this. Most [[List of moves that cause flinching|moves that cause flinching]] are [[physical move]]s.

It is known as cringing in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].

===Foresight/Odor Sleuth/Miracle Eye===
The opponent's evasion modification will not affect the accuracy of a Pokémon that uses {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, or {{m|Miracle Eye}}. In addition, a {{t|Normal}}- or {{type2|Fighting}} move used by a Pokémon that has used Foresight or Odor Sleuth will affect {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon, and {{type2|Psychic}} moves used by a Pokémon that has used Miracle Eye will affect {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon.

==={{anchor|attraction|Infatuation}}===
A Pokémon that is infatuated with its foe cannot attack it 50% of the time. A Pokémon can only successfully use {{m|Attract}} on opponents of the opposite gender; or in the case of {{p|Mew}}, on another genderless Pokémon. Pokémon with the {{a|Oblivious}} ability are immune to infatuation. The infatuated status cannot be passed with Baton Pass. Infatuation will end as soon as the Pokémon that used it or the Pokémon that it is used on leaves the battle.

===Leech Seed===
[[File:Turtwig Leech Seed effect.png|thumb|[[Ash's Torterra|Turtwig]] affected by Leech Seed]]
Each turn, a Pokémon hit by {{m|Leech Seed}} loses 1/8 (1/16 in [[Generation I]]) of its maximum hit points. The opponent is healed by the same amount. {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon are immune to {{m|Leech Seed}}. If a Pokémon affected by Leech Seed uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, Leech Seed is transferred to its replacement, even if it is a Grass-type. Even if the affected Pokémon switches again within the battle, if sent out again, the effects still remain (unless Baton Passed again). If the user of Leech Seed switches out, the health granted by the effect is applied to the new replacement. There is no requirement for the Pokémon to use the move again, or even to know it. If you switch out the Pokémon that Leech Seed is affecting, the effect will wear off and Leech Seed will not affect the replacement.

===Mind Reader/Lock-On===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Mind Reader}} or {{m|Lock-On}}, the next damage-dealing move will hit the opponent without fail, even if the opponent uses a move that offers a turn of invulnerability, such as {{m|Fly}}. This effect can be {{m|Baton Pass}}ed.

===Nightmare===
{{m|Nightmare}} only affects a sleeping Pokémon. The sleeping Pokémon loses ¼ of its maximum hit points every turn. If the sleeping Pokémon awakens, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect. If Baton Pass switches out a Pokémon that is not asleep, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect.

===Perish Song===
After three turns, all Pokémon who heard the {{m|Perish Song}} will faint, excluding Pokémon with the {{a|Soundproof}} ability. Any Pokémon who heard it can avoid the effect of fainting if it is switched out before the 3-turn count finishes. {{m|Baton Pass}} transfers the Perish Song countdown.

===Taunt===
{{m|Taunt}} prevents the Pokémon from using any non-damaging moves. This effect will wear off after two to four turns, or if one switches out. Pokémon using {{m|Substitute}} can still be afflicted with this status ailment.

===Torment===
{{m|Torment}} renders the Pokémon incapable of using the same move twice in a row. If the Pokémon is holding a [[Choice item]], it is forced to use {{m|Struggle}} every second turn.

==Volatile battle status==
===Defense Curl===
Using {{m|Defense Curl}} causes the power of {{m|Rollout}} and {{m|Ice Ball}} to double for the Pokémon. This effect is not transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Focus Energy===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Focus Energy}}, its [[critical hit]] rate increases.

===Mean Look/Spider Web/Block===
[[File:Dusknoir Mean Look.png|thumb|250px|left|{{p|Dusknoir}} using Mean Look]]
A Pokémon trapped by {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, or {{m|Block}} cannot switch until the Pokémon that used the move is defeated or switches. The trapped Pokémon can also escape if it is holding the {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shed Shell}}. If a trapped Pokémon uses Baton Pass, the Pokémon brought out will be trapped instead.

===Minimize===
A Pokémon having used {{m|Minimize}} will take double damage if hit by the move {{m|Stomp}} (though this behavior is not present in [[Generation I]]).

===Mist===
[[File:Piplup mist.png|thumb|Mist surrounds {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}]]
{{m|Mist}} prevents a Pokémon's stats from being lowered by the opponent's attacks. The user may still lower its own stats with moves like {{m|Superpower}}. The move {{m|Defog}} cancels out Mist.

===Substitute===
The Pokémon that uses {{m|Substitute}} loses ¼ of its total HP (rounded down) to make a Substitute which will absorb hits until it "breaks" (damage the Substitute has taken is greater than the HP used to make it). From [[Generation II]] onward, Substitutes block all status ailments and will immediately break if a one-hit knockout attack connects with them. In [[Generation I]], however, a substitute only blocks primary status ailments; attacks like {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Spore}} completely circumvent the Substitute. Substitutes can be transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Reflect and Light Screen===
{{m|Reflect}} and {{m|Light Screen}} last for five turns (eight with {{DL|In-battle effect item|Light Clay}}) and heighten the user's entire team's {{stat|Defense}} or {{stat|Special Defense}}, respectively. Either of them can be broken by {{m|Brick Break}} or {{m|Defog}}.

The freeze condition causes a Pokémon to be unable to make a move. Damaging {{type2|Fire}} moves used on a frozen Pokémon will remove the freeze status. As of [[Generation II]], freeze has a random, ~10% chance to be cured on its own on the frozen Pokémon's turn. Consequently, the frozen Pokémon may thaw out on the turn of freezing; however, in [[Generation I]], a frozen Pokémon never thaws without external aid. Pokémon cannot be frozen in [[weather conditions#Intense sunlight|sunny weather]]; contrary to popular belief, sunny weather does not cause a quicker thawing.

{{type2|Ice}} Pokémon cannot be frozen by Ice-type moves; however, they can be frozen by Tri Attack. A frozen Pokémon can still use the moves {{m|Flame Wheel}}, {{m|Sacred Fire}} and {{m|Flare Blitz}} while frozen; these moves will thaw the user, thaw the opponent if possible, and deal damage to the opponent. All [[List of moves that freeze|moves which cause freezing]] are Ice-type except Tri Attack (Generation II onwards) and Secret Power (when used in snow or ice; [[Generation IV]] only). It is also the only non-volatile status which has no move that causes it 100% of the time. The only move to provide more than a 10% chance of freezing is {{m|Secret Power}} when used on snow or ice, which provides a 30% chance.

A frozen [[Sky Forme]] {{p|Shaymin}} will revert to its [[Land Forme]].

===Paralysis===
A Pokémon inflicted with paralysis will be unable to attack ("fully paralyzed") a quarter of the time. Additionally, its Speed is reduced to 25% of its previous value (except for Pokémon with the {{a|Quick Feet}} ability, where this condition raises the Speed by 50%). Many [[List of moves that paralyze|moves that cause paralysis]] are of the {{t|Electric}} type. {{t|Ground}} types can be paralyzed, however only if attacked by a non Electric-type move such as {{m|DragonBreath}} or {{m|Tri Attack}} (Generation II onwards), or if it uses an attack which makes contact on an opponent with the {{a|Static}} ability.

===Poison===
[[Image:Poisoned Pokémon.png|right|{{TP|Ash|Staraptor}} is poisoned|thumb|250px]]
A poisoned Pokémon loses 1/8 of its maximum hit points every turn (in [[Generation I]], it loses 1/16). {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned. {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned in [[Generation III]] and beyond; in [[Generation II]], a {{type2|Steel}} type Pokémon can only be poisoned by the poisoning effect of the move {{m|Twineedle}}.

A poisoned Pokémon also loses 1 hit point for every four steps taken while not in battle. In [[Generation IV]], a Pokémon whose HP is reduced to 1 via poison outside of battle will have the poison status removed. All [[List of moves that poison|moves that can poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Twineedle}}, {{m|Secret Power}}, and {{m|Fling}} (which poisons only if {{DL|In-battle effect item|Poison Barb}} is held).

===={{anchor|Badly poisoned|Bad poison}}====
The status ailment caused by {{m|Toxic}} and {{m|Poison Fang}}, as well as by {{m|Toxic Spikes}} after it is used twice, is the same as Poison except its damage begins at 1/16 and grows an additional 1/16 every turn, taking 2/16 max hit points the second turn, then 3/16 the third turn, and 4/16 the fourth, and so on. In [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], switching a Pokémon out of active battle would change the badly poisoned condition to normal poison. In [[Generation III]] and beyond, the "badly poisoned" effect will remain even after switching a Pokémon out of battle and back in, but the damage counter will be reset. After a battle is over, the "badly poisoned" status will become a normal poison. All [[List of moves that poison|moves which can badly poison]] are of the Poison-type except {{m|Fling}} (which badly poisons only if {{DL|In-battle effect item|Toxic Orb}} is held).

[[Image:Sleeping Pokémon.png|left|{{TP|Ash|Heracross}} sleeping|thumb|250px]]
===Sleep===
A Pokémon that is asleep is unable to use any moves (in a situation almost identical to the Freeze condition), except for two special moves which may be used while asleep ({{m|Snore}} and {{m|Sleep Talk}}). Sleep lasts for a randomly chosen duration of 1 to 5 turns (1 to 3 in Stadium). Sleep may be self-induced for 3 turns (inclusive of the initial turn) using the move {{m|Rest}}, which will remove any other non-volatile status ailment. A [[Level#Disobedience|disobedient]] Pokémon may nap during battle, inducing the Sleep status. There are currently no [[List of moves that cause sleep|moves that cause sleep]] and damage together, though {{m|Secret Power}} is capable of doing so if it is used in long grass. In Generation I, a Pokémon that wakes up is not able to attack that same turn, but since Generation II, it is able to attack as soon as the sleep wears off.

==Volatile status==
A volatile status will wear off when a Pokémon is taken out of battle or a battle is over. Many of these will also wear off after a number of turns pass. All of these conditions may be passed to another Pokémon by using {{m|Baton Pass}} unless stated otherwise. Since they aren't shown in battle as a status aliment (having an icon) a Pokémon can be affected with multiple volatile ailments and a non-volatile aliment at the same time.

===Confusion===
A Pokémon will hurt itself in its confusion 50% of the time. The damage is done as if the Pokémon attacked itself with a 40-power typeless physical attack.

Confusion wears off after 1-4 attacking turns. This means that turns recharging, such as after using {{m|Hyper Beam}}, and turns unable to attack, such as from paralysis, will not lower the remaining number of turns of confusion. However, a sleeping Pokémon may hurt itself in confusion if using a move such as {{m|Snore}} or {{m|Sleep Talk}}.

Multi-turn attacks such as {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Dive}} require that confusion be checked both turns, further reducing the chance of successful attack. Pokémon with the {{a|Own Tempo}} ability are immune to [[List of moves that confuse|moves that cause confusion]].

Confusion is transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

A [[Ninja Boy]] on {{rt|211|Sinnoh}} erroneously states that confusion only wears off if the Pokémon is switched out.

===Curse===
If a {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon uses {{m|Curse}}, the Pokémon it is used on loses ¼ its maximum hit points every turn, and the user immediately loses half of their maximum hit points in exchange. If any non-{{t|Ghost}} type Pokémon uses Curse, their {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Defense}} go up one stage, and their {{stat|Speed}} drops one stage. If the victim of a Ghost-type Curse uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, the health-sapping effect is transferred to its replacement. If a Pokémon that has been afflicted by curse is switched out of battle, the effect is lifted. Also, in [[Generation II]], defeating the opponent will prevent the Pokémon it is used on taking damage from Curse on that turn.

===Flinch===
The flinch status is a one-turn status that prevents a Pokémon from attacking. A Pokémon can only flinch if the opponent attacks first. Pokémon with the {{a|Inner Focus}} ability are also immune to this. Most [[List of moves that cause flinching|moves that cause flinching]] are [[physical move]]s.

It is known as cringing in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]].

===Foresight/Odor Sleuth/Miracle Eye===
The opponent's evasion modification will not affect the accuracy of a Pokémon that uses {{m|Foresight}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, or {{m|Miracle Eye}}. In addition, a {{t|Normal}}- or {{type2|Fighting}} move used by a Pokémon that has used Foresight or Odor Sleuth will affect {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon, and {{type2|Psychic}} moves used by a Pokémon that has used Miracle Eye will affect {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon.

==={{anchor|attraction|Infatuation}}===
A Pokémon that is infatuated with its foe cannot attack it 50% of the time. A Pokémon can only successfully use {{m|Attract}} on opponents of the opposite gender; or in the case of {{p|Mew}}, on another genderless Pokémon. Pokémon with the {{a|Oblivious}} ability are immune to infatuation. The infatuated status cannot be passed with Baton Pass. Infatuation will end as soon as the Pokémon that used it or the Pokémon that it is used on leaves the battle.

===Leech Seed===
Each turn, a Pokémon hit by {{m|Leech Seed}} loses 1/8 (1/16 in [[Generation I]]) of its maximum hit points. The opponent is healed by the same amount. {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon are immune to {{m|Leech Seed}}. If a Pokémon affected by Leech Seed uses {{m|Baton Pass}}, Leech Seed is transferred to its replacement, even if it is a Grass-type. Even if the affected Pokémon switches again within the battle, if sent out again, the effects still remain (unless Baton Passed again). If the user of Leech Seed switches out, the health granted by the effect is applied to the new replacement. There is no requirement for the Pokémon to use the move again, or even to know it. If the pokemon affected by Leech Seed is knocked out, then Leech Seed's effect goes away and will not damage the pokemon you send out.

===Mind Reader/Lock-On===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Mind Reader}} or {{m|Lock-On}}, the next damage-dealing move will hit the opponent without fail, even if the opponent uses a move that offers a turn of invulnerability, such as {{m|Fly}}. This effect can be {{m|Baton Pass}}ed.

===Nightmare===
{{m|Nightmare}} only affects a sleeping Pokémon. The sleeping Pokémon loses ¼ of its maximum hit points every turn. If the sleeping Pokémon awakens, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect. If Baton Pass switches out a Pokémon that is not asleep, then the nightmare will no longer be in effect.

===Perish Song===
After three turns, all Pokémon who heard the {{m|Perish Song}} will faint, excluding Pokémon with the {{a|Soundproof}} ability. Any Pokémon who heard it can avoid the effect of fainting if it is switched out before the 3-turn count finishes. {{m|Baton Pass}} transfers the Perish Song countdown.

===Taunt===
{{m|Taunt}} prevents the Pokémon from using any non-damaging moves. This effect will wear off after two to four turns, or if one switches out. Pokémon using {{m|Substitute}} can still be afflicted with this status ailment.

===Torment===
{{m|Torment}} renders the Pokémon incapable of using the same move twice in a row. If the Pokémon is holding a [[Choice item]], it is forced to use {{m|Struggle}} every second turn.

==Volatile battle status==
===Defense Curl===
Using {{m|Defense Curl}} causes the power of {{m|Rollout}} and {{m|Ice Ball}} to double for the Pokémon. This effect is not transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Focus Energy===
When a Pokémon uses {{m|Focus Energy}}, its [[critical hit]] rate increases.

===Mean Look/Spider Web/Block===
A Pokémon trapped by {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, or {{m|Block}} cannot switch until the Pokémon that used the move is defeated or switches. The trapped Pokémon can also escape if it is holding the {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shed Shell}}. If a trapped Pokémon uses Baton Pass, the Pokémon brought out will be trapped instead.

===Minimize===
A Pokémon having used {{m|Minimize}} will take double damage if hit by the move {{m|Stomp}} (though this behavior is not present in [[Generation I]]).

===Mist===
{{m|Mist}} prevents a Pokémon's stats from being lowered by the opponent's attacks. The user may still lower its own stats with moves like {{m|Superpower}}. The move {{m|Defog}} cancels out Mist.

===Substitute===
The Pokémon that uses {{m|Substitute}} loses ¼ of its total HP (rounded down) to make a Substitute which will absorb hits until it "breaks" (damage the Substitute has taken is greater than the HP used to make it). From [[Generation II]] onward, Substitutes block all status ailments and will immediately break if a one-hit knockout attack connects with them. In [[Generation I]], however, a substitute only blocks primary status ailments; attacks like {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Spore}} completely circumvent the Substitute. Substitutes can be transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}.

===Reflect and Light Screen===
{{m|Reflect}} and {{m|Light Screen}} last for five turns (eight with {{DL|In-battle effect item|Light Clay}}) and heighten the user's entire team's {{stat|Defense}} or {{stat|Special Defense}}, respectively. Either of them can be broken by {{m|Brick Break}} or {{m|Defog}}.

Bad Egg

2010-08-15T00:21:14Z

Augustjune380: /* Generation III */

{{move|Bad Egg}}
[[Image:Bad_egg.png|150px|right|thumb|A Bad Egg in the [[party]]. Note how it is capitalized as "Bad EGG."]]
A '''Bad Egg''' (Japanese: '''ダメタマゴ''' ''bad egg'') is a phenomenon present in the [[Generation III]] and [[Generation IV]] Pokémon games that results from a corruption of Pokémon data so that the {{wp|checksum}} does not match up with the data's calculations. Sometimes, Bad Eggs can transform into [[Invisible shiny Bulbasaur]].

Bad Eggs are not really [[Pokémon Egg]]s, and may possibly never have been, but instead the default message returned by the game if the checksum is off (which happens only if data is altered badly). Bad Eggs rarely hatch and cannot be released, merely taking up space, though there are methods of removing them.

==Game data==
[[Image:Badegg_img.gif‎|right|thumb|250px|The bad egg's Pokémon info screen in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}.]]
Like a normal egg, bad eggs appear with a type of {{t|???}}, as well as have the same Pokémon status screen as an egg would. Despite this, the similarities end there, as bad eggs can be [[held items|holding items]] (which cannot be taken) and be placed within types of [[Poké Ball]] aside from the standard kind. Some may be reported to have [[Pokérus]] or be cured of it, and may be [[fainting|fainted]].
[[File:900MS.png|left]]
A bad egg placed in the first slot of the [[party]] will, rather than having a normal egg menu sprite, have a differently colored version of the menu sprite of the Pokémon following it, such as a golden {{p|Bulbasaur}}, a blue {{p|Marowak}}, or a brown {{p|Ho-Oh}}. It is unknown why this happens, as even {{shiny}} Pokémon have a normal-colored menu sprite, however it may have to do with the game using an egg sprite's palette for the first sprite information it encounters (as the bad egg's is blank).

If it is forced to hatch through use of a cheat code, a {{gp|?}} will come out and the game will immediately freeze.

==Appearances of bad eggs==
===Generation III===
When using the [[GameShark]] code for quick {{pkmn|Daycare}} level-up, an invisible bad egg will appear in the party, which can be switched around using the PC and used in battle. Sometimes, the bad egg will take form of the silhouette of a pokemon in the PC box. But whenever you select "Summary" on the pokemon, the game will freeze.

Alternatively, by using codes to capture wild Pokémon instantly, reducing their HP to 0 yet keeping the battle going, it will be sent to the PC instead as a bad egg. This bad egg can be removed from the game by picking up another Pokémon while it is held, then setting it back down. This bad egg appears differently; instead of an egg in its status box, it is the "unseen Pokémon" image used in the Pokédex and by [[ten question marks|??????????]]. Like ??????????, using it in battle will cause an instant white out (if used without any other Pokémon in the party).

Bad eggs can also occur if the player attempts to hack a Pokémon which has an illegal moveset, as the checksums will not add up correctly (as the checksum would use the Pokémon's normal moveset at that level as a check).

===Generation IV===

====Index number 495====

In addition to forcing an ordinary Pokémon to have an invalid checksum. It is possible to encounter a Bad Egg in the wild by using an [[Action Replay]] on {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} and setting the wild Pokémon modifier code to 495 (an identifier of Manaphy Egg, although a Manaphy Egg is rendered as a Bad Egg in battle). The game will freeze instantly on capture when the game attempts to show the Pokédex entry. A normal egg captured this way (using an identifier of 494) will hatch into a random Pokémon, including Pokémon that do not normally hatch from eggs like [[legendary Pokémon]] and evolved Pokémon, or may hatch into [[-----]] or, like its [[Glitch egg|Generation II counterpart]], another egg (which will then go on to hatch into a ----- itself). Due to being incorrectly generated, whatever is hatched may eventually turn into a Bad Egg itself, and then subsequently hatch yet again. The use of an Action Replay with a "1 hit kill" cheat in double battles will often result in a Bad Egg appearing. If the player sees a Bad Egg, the game will occasionally freeze. If {{m|Transform}} is used against a Bad Egg, its backsprite will be exactly the same as its front sprite. Also, if {{m|Transform}} is used, the only move it knows is {{m|Splash}}.

===Hacked data in Pokémon Battle Revolution===
In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], some Pokémon that are hacked may become bad eggs when they are copied from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. A common example of a bad egg replacing a Pokémon is when that Pokémon has more than 510 [[effort values]]. Bad eggs are unable to battle in Pokémon Battle Revolution.

If the player has a hacked Pokémon, although it won't appear to be a bad egg on their DS game, it will show up as a bad egg on Pokémon Battle Revolution if used in a DS battle.

== Trivia ==
*Bad eggs in Generation IV that result from cheating while online often are holding [[Cherish Ball]]s, which of course the player cannot take from them.
*In addition, Generation IV bad eggs usually have [[seals]] attached, which prevents them from being deposited in the PC. It is thus possible for all party slots to be taken up by bad eggs. If this occurs, battles cannot be fought at all.

Talk:Mystery Zone

2010-08-14T20:54:37Z

Augustjune380: /* Eterna Gym */

I added a) 'Mystery Zone' is the real title of the area; that's never stated...b) messing with loading of snowstorms and such... [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 02:50, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

==White/Black areas==

Okay, so last night (at the time of writing) I was messing around with the 'Walk Through Walls' cheat that is included in Codejunkies' cheat list for Diamond and Pearl. I set out over the Mystery Zone from Sandgem Town, aiming for Jubilife. All goes well, until I try and walk up to the GTS area - I can't get past the line where the Type guy stands. So I kinda shrug, press R again and get past him. As I don't have any badges the GTS man trys to stop me as I walk past him, I move on and....

Jubilife got eaten. There's huge walls of black, like I've been tweaking. Later, I tried to get to Florama using the Walk through walls and when I get there, wherever there's meant to be a flower, it's a strange creamy white colour. Perhaps the Walk Through Walls/Walk Anywhere cheat needs its own page?

(Oh, and I couldn't think of anywhere else to put this.) -[[Image:Ani466MS.gif]] [[User:Archaeic|Archaeic]] [[Image:Ani466MS.gif]] 20:20, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
:Eh, cheats are kinda frowned upon here, because one of the reasons your game is messing up is because you used a cheating device, but eh. ;>_> [[User:Tina|Tina]] [[Special:Contributions/Tina|δ]][[User talk:Tina|♫]] 20:25, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
::Same thing happens if you walk through walls in other games. It's because it doesn't load the palettes correctly. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]{{ani|155|Fire echy}}[[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 20:31, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

== I wonder... ==

Think anyone could map where exactly the indoors/Mystery Zone areas are in relation to each other and the rest of Sinnoh? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 21:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Only by [ILEGALLY OH NO] cracking open the game card's code and emulating a map of it. I *can* do that, but just with games encoded on CDs. Apolgies...that would be interesting, though. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 02:49, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

== I also have another request... ==

Once when I tweaked to ensure the veracity of the one "get to Newmoon Island via tweaking" video, I went through an area that had the Underground's music. I didn't stop, but if I did and opened the menu... would it have shown the Underground menu or just not open as in the rest of the Mystery Zone?

And what happens when you hatch an egg in that place...? I know there's a "Mystery Zone" location... '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 03:18, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
No clue on the first. The location hatched will be Mystery Zone for the second. [[User: Tc26|'''tc''']][[User talk: Tc26|'''2''']][[Special: Contributions/Tc26|'''6''']] 03:36, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

:I've never encountered any Mystery Zones with music other than the muted Route 206/etc. music, byut I doubt the menu would appear if you tried to open it in one. [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 23:56, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
::Well, it wasn't the Mystery Zone. It was some other area, between two parts of Turnback Cave. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:11, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

== "Under" Lake Verity? ==

Is it the Mystery Zone ''south'' of Lake Verity? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:12, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, as I guy that uses the walk anywhere cheat, I know that you walk(or surf) on the water of Lake Verity to the west and south till you'll find some grass. Just go south of the grass and voila, that's where the pic was taken.--[[User:Dragonbeastx|DRAGON]][[User talk:Dragonbeastx|BEAST]][[User:Dragonbeastx/The Aura Spot|X]] 21:32, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

== What I Put ==

I put "Also, if one would enter the Mystery Zone and refresh by having the town map selected through registration, when the player would go back to the original area, the area will look completely shifted in the coding." Yeah, it happened to me, I went to lake verity, I registered the town map, I got in the mystery zone, like in the picture, I pressed Y and I went back north to the lake. When I was back, and the lake looked brown and I could only see the lines that would differentiate tiles from one another... I pressed Y again and it came back to normal. There, I explained it. Though, I can't prove it...--[[User:Dragonbeastx|DRAGON]][[User talk:Dragonbeastx|BEAST]][[User:Dragonbeastx/The Aura Spot|X]] 07:25, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

I've also put an invisible notice near my added stuff...--[[User:Dragonbeastx|DRAGON]][[User talk:Dragonbeastx|BEAST]][[User:Dragonbeastx/The Aura Spot|X]] 07:34, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

== Why is this in the glitches template? ==

It's not exactly a glitch, so.... why is it there? It was clearly called Mystery Zone by Nintendo too.... [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 04:20, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Sinnoh locations template (if there is one)? I don't know much about the site itself I just contribute to the glitch articles. I guess it is strange enough to stay in glitches and it contains its own glitches too.... [[User:OwnageMuch|OwnageMuch]] 03:09, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
:Well, it belongs there, but it is also on the Project GlitchDex icon (not saying it was a good choice). A Beta template might be useful though, or a Game data template. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:18, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
::It is only in the name, Nintendo never expected people to actually visit these areas (without any speculation anyway) but only the term "Mystery Zone" itself is Beta (i.e. as a placeholder or error handler for areas which do not exist in between routes in the new map engine). You could even argue that the names of '??????????' and 'MISSINGNO.' are error handlers but not the actual Pokémon themselves. Perhaps we could have an Alpha elements section (for e.g. screenshots for sprites which do not exist within the coding of the final game) and Beta elements section (for elements which still exist in the final game, but cannot be accessed through normal gameplay). To be critical I don't like the current Template:Beta, it focuses too much on 'Beta Pokémon games' not certain pointers which still correspond to non-existant data within the final game such as the G/S/C Safari Zone. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 18:41, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

This happened to me, too. It was somewhere, but I can't remember, in Diamond. I went WAAAY out in the black, and it eventually started playing different music. When I went back, there were just shadows from the trainers, but no trainers. When I access Pokemon or Bag on the X menu, everything was restored.

I added a) 'Mystery Zone' is the real title of the area; that's never stated...b) messing with loading of snowstorms and such... [[User:LordArceus|LordArceus]] 02:50, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

==White/Black areas==

Okay, so last night (at the time of writing) I was messing around with the 'Walk Through Walls' cheat that is included in Codejunkies' cheat list for Diamond and Pearl. I set out over the Mystery Zone from Sandgem Town, aiming for Jubilife. All goes well, until I try and walk up to the GTS area - I can't get past the line where the Type guy stands. So I kinda shrug, press R again and get past him. As I don't have any badges the GTS man trys to stop me as I walk past him, I move on and....

Jubilife got eaten. There's huge walls of black, like I've been tweaking. Later, I tried to get to Florama using the Walk through walls and when I get there, wherever there's meant to be a flower, it's a strange creamy white colour. Perhaps the Walk Through Walls/Walk Anywhere cheat needs its own page?

Once when I tweaked to ensure the veracity of the one "get to Newmoon Island via tweaking" video, I went through an area that had the Underground's music. I didn't stop, but if I did and opened the menu... would it have shown the Underground menu or just not open as in the rest of the Mystery Zone?

::It is only in the name, Nintendo never expected people to actually visit these areas (without any speculation anyway) but only the term "Mystery Zone" itself is Beta (i.e. as a placeholder or error handler for areas which do not exist in between routes in the new map engine). You could even argue that the names of '??????????' and 'MISSINGNO.' are error handlers but not the actual Pokémon themselves. Perhaps we could have an Alpha elements section (for e.g. screenshots for sprites which do not exist within the coding of the final game) and Beta elements section (for elements which still exist in the final game, but cannot be accessed through normal gameplay). To be critical I don't like the current Template:Beta, it focuses too much on 'Beta Pokémon games' not certain pointers which still correspond to non-existant data within the final game such as the G/S/C Safari Zone. --[[User:Chickasaurus|Chickasaurus]] 18:41, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

It wouldn't be due to the battery running dry as this would undoubtedly prevent the clock from ever running again until the battery was replaced. They can't be recharged.

I'm also very interested in how this patch works. They can't "reprogram the ROM", it's Read-Only Memory. They have to be doing something in the save file. My theories are they suspected this would happen and added a flag in the save file to use alternate code, or they implemented some sort of patching system allowing them to insert code into the save file. I would guess they simply reset the day counter, but then wouldn't it happen again? [[User:HyperHacker|HyperHacker]] 05:10, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Would a game effected only produce one or the other regardless of AM/PM? I suppose this would be answered by the first question...

2. Do all of the listed effect happen? IIRC, i got the message, but still was able to plant and harvest berries...i havent tested all of the other effects, but i think i havent had any sale days on the roof of the supermarket (forgive my lack of proper names, havent played this in an eternity)

::To check if its a berry glitch or you internal battery has actuallly run dry, try patching it. There's no harm in doing so if its fine. Anyway, It's highly unlikely your internal battery would have actually run dry in such a short space of time. Number 2, it should stop berries from growing, planting and harvesting should be unaffected. Sale days aren't overly likely, so you are probably just unlucky.

::::All you need is a [[Generation III]] Pokémon game (if its a handheld game, you'll need 2 GBAs, if its a console game, you'll need a GameCube), and a means of communication (link cable, wireless adapter, etc.). The only Generation III Pokémon game you won't be able to do it with is a non-{{wp|PAL}} version of [[Pokémon Channel]]. It shouldn't hard at all to get the patch.
::::Also, time is recorded by an internal battery inside the game cartridge (like what the message says has run dry). This battery ensures that time always flows, even when no power is connected to the cartridge. While playing the game, it is possible that berries will still grow, I don't know enough about how it works to know this for certain. However, I would think that it relies solely on the internal battery to keep time, due to the error message saying that time-based events will not occur.

I heard once that lowering the Ditto or Trainer Pokémon's Attack modifier lowers the resulting wild Pokémon's level. Like if you use Growl six times on the Youngster's Slowpoke before beating it, the Mew will be L. 1. Since you can't increase its Attack, it can't get any higher than L. 7.

== Glitch not working right! ==

The glitch isn't working right for me. Here's what I did:
1. Caught an Abra.
2. Saved.
''This part is what I'm supposed to do. I just explained it badly.
3. walked to the Junior Trainer next to the bridge
4. Opened the menu.
5. Teleported.
6. He saw me, but I ended up in Cerulean City.
OK, I'm done with the bad explaining.''
7. Fought the Youngster with the Slowpoke.
8. Won.
9. Saved.
What I did first:
10. Teleported to Cerulean City.
11. Went to the Nugget Bridge.
12. The menu opened itself!
13. I closed it.
14. Mew didn't appear! I read the article, so I soft resetted.
After that, I tried this:
10. Walked to Cerulean City.
11. When I left the Route, the menu appeared!
12. I closed it.
13. Mew didn't appear!

I think the problem was #9, but I'm not sure. [[User:Alakazam 2|Alakazam 2]]

== "I saw your feat from the grass!" ==

[[File:Feat.jpg|thumb|right|Visual proof that "feat" is indeed the word. This is true not only in [[Generation I]], but its [[Generation III]] remakes as well.]]
I can't believe people are still insisting that "[[Wiktionary:Feat|feat]]" is a misspelling of "[[Wiktionary:Feet|feet]]". If anyone even bothered to read a dictionary definition, one can tell that feat is most definitely a word, and as such, can deduce that the Jr. Trainer ([[Camper]] in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}) was referring to the act of the [[player character]] clearing the [[Nugget Bridge]] challenge. In fact, given the barriers across the water, it would make absolutely no sense for the Jr. Trainer to claim he saw the player's feet. In conclusion, the line as given in the game is correct as it is, and any attempt to change the correct "feat" to the incorrect "feet", especially if citing a "spelling error", will result in a warning, and potentially a block if things go too far. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 05:40, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

==Special Stats==
I know which special stat number corresponds to which Pokemon. Should I make a section for that in the article?{{unsigned|Raikami}}
