Memento (Japanese: おきみやげ Memento) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

Memento causes the user to faint but lowers the Attack and Special Attack stat of the target by two stages each.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon

The user sharply lowers Attack and Special Attack for all opposing Pokémon in the room, then the user warps to a different location in the floor and is left with 1 HP instead of fainting.
