Snore (Japanese: いびき Snore) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It was TM13 in Generation II.

Effect

Generations II

Snore can only be used if the user is sleeping; it will fail in any other case.

Snore inflicts damage and has a 30% chance of causing the target to flinch.

Generation III

If Sleep Talk or Snore is used at least once consecutively in the turns right before switching out, the Pokémon will sleep for the same amount of turns as were remaining prior to the usage of those two moves when switched back in.

Pokémon with the Ability Soundproof are not affected by this move.

In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, provided that Snore is one of the user's moves, if the user takes direct damage while asleep it may inflict damage on the foe indirectly (by counterattack).

Generation IV to V

Turns where Snore is used are always counted towards waking the Pokémon.

Generation VI

Snore's power changed from 40 to 50.
