On Smogon's Movedex:

Giga Drain (Japanese: ギガドレイン Giga Drain) is a damage-dealing Grass-type move introduced in Generation II. Giga Drain is the strongest in a line of three Grass-type HP draining attacks, the other two being Absorb and Mega Drain. It was TM19 from Generation II to Generation IV. It regained TM status in Generation VIII, albeit as TM28 in Pokémon Sword and Shield and TM19 in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.

Effect

Generation II

Giga Drain inflicts damage, and up to 50% of the damage dealt to the target is restored to the user as HP. If this attack deals 1 HP of damage, 1 HP will be restored to the user.

The base PP of Giga Drain is 5 in this generation, and its base power is 60.

Giga Drain will always fail against a substitute.

Generation III

Giga Drain can now hit a substitute and will properly heal the user when damaging a substitute. When used on a Pokémon with the Liquid Ooze Ability, the user will lose the amount of HP it would have gained instead.

Giga Drain can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining extra two appeal points if the move Growth was used in the prior turn.

Generation IV

The move's base PP was raised to 10. If the user is holding a Big Root, the HP restored is increased by 30% (making the restored HP 65% of the damage dealt). Big Root does not increase the damage dealt.

Generation V

Giga Drain's base power has been increased from 60 to 75.

Generation VI

Giga Drain cannot be used if the user is under the effects of Heal Block.

In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, and Explorers of Time, Darkness and Sky, Giga Drain is a move with 12 base power, 88% accuracy, and 10 PP. The user attacks enemy in the front, and up to 50% of the damage dealt to the target is restored to the user as HP, including excess damage.

In Gates to Infinity, the user will heal based on how much HP the target lost, with excess damage not being accounted for. This is changed back to what it previously was in Super Mystery Dungeon.
