In other games
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
Prior to Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, a Pokémon with Illuminate "blinks" after a turn in which it was damaged. The "blink" summons a hostile Pokémon somewhere on the floor.
In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, the Pokémon obtains the Decoy status after using an illuminating move. The Decoy status makes enemies preferentially attack the Pokémon instead of other allies.
Affected moves
The table below lists the moves affected by Illuminate, as well as the Pokémon that can have Illuminate and learn those moves.
