Future Sight (Japanese: みらいよち Future Sight) is a damage-dealing Psychic-type move introduced in Generation II.

Effect

Generations II to IV

On the turn Future Sight is selected, this attack will do nothing other than say that the user has foreseen an attack. Two turns later, Future Sight will do damage against the target, using the Special Attack stat of the user and Special Defense stat of the target at the time of use (not at the time the attack actually hits; if the target is switched out, the attack will hit its replacement but the damage is based on the switched-out Pokémon). Although Future Sight is a Psychic-type attack, it will not take type into account, ignoring weaknesses, immunities and resistances. Therefore, it is able to hit Dark-type foes and does not receive STAB. Furthermore, Future Sight cannot cause a critical hit and its damage is not increased by Life Orb.

Future Sight can hit through Wonder Guard, Protect, and Detect. It can knock out a target that used Endure, but not one wearing a Focus Sash that has full HP.

Future Sight cannot be used on a target multiple times; it must complete before it may be used on a target again. Doom Desire and Future Sight cannot be stacked.

Future Sight will fail if it would hit the Pokémon that used the move.

When Future Sight misses, the miss will not occur until the third turn, and it will say, "It failed."

Generation V

Future Sight's power is increased from 80 to 100, its accuracy from 90% to 100%, and its PP from 15 to 10.

Furthermore, Future Sight now does Psychic-type damage that will take the user's and target's types into account and can therefore receive STAB; this also means that it can no longer hit Dark-type Pokémon under normal circumstances. Future Sight no longer uses the Special Defense stat of the Pokémon initially targeted, but instead the Special Defense of the Pokémon actually hit.

Generation VI

Future Sight's power was increased again from 100 to 120.

In contests, the move increases from two appeal to six appeal if the move used by the previous Pokémon that round was also a Psychic-type move. This bonus cannot trigger if used first in the round, even if the move used by the last round's last Pokémon was a Psychic-type move.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Teams

The user will always inflict 35HP of damage for 3 turns.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky

The user will always deal 30HP damage on any enemies for a set number of turns.

Pokémon Conquest

Future sight targets the back 6 of the 9 spaces in the direction chosen. Upon use, no damage is dealt. At the start of the target's turn two turns after use, they will take Psychic-type damage (the turn after use, the target will be able to take their turn normally, but will take the damage at the start of the following turn, before any moves are made).Even if the user faints, the damages from the attack will still happen 2 turns after being casted.

Girafarig Girafarig's eyes or whole body glows light blue. After a little bit of time passes, the wind blows strong and a sphere of rainbow colored energy comes out of nowhere, striking the opponent. Future Sight has a second ability that allows the user and occasionally its Trainer to see into the future.

Meowstic Meowstic extends its ears, and the eye-like patterns on its inner ears glow blue. Meowstic creates four or five wormholes then blasts of electrified psychic energy through the four wormholes and inbetween the wormholes. After a certain amount of time, the wormholes appear around the target, barraging the target with the electrified psychic energy. Sometimes, the number "5" appears to signify a countdown for when the attack will strike.
