Attract (Japanese: メロメロ Mad Love) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It is TM45 from Generation II onwards.

Effect

Generations II-V

If the target is the opposite gender of the Pokémon who launched the move, the target becomes infatuated. If the move is used on a Pokémon that is the same gender as the user or is genderless, it will fail. If the foe Pokémon holds a Destiny Knot and then becomes infatuated, the user will fall under the same effect. Unlike most status moves, this move will affect a target with a substitute.

Pokémon with the Ability Oblivious are immune to the effects of Attract.

Generation VI

Attract does not affect Pokémon under the protection of Aroma Veil.

In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, all Pokémon are genderless, so Attract can infatuate any opponent. Unlike in the main games, infatuation can linger on an opponent even after the user has been defeated.

Attract took the same effect as in the main games in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Darkness onwards, when genders were introduced.
