'''Substitute''' (Japanese: '''みがわり''' ''Scapegoat'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM50]] in Generation I before losing its TM status in Generation II. It regained its TM status, albeit as [[TM90]], in Generation IV onwards. It was {{p|Mr. Mime}}'s [[signature move]] in [[Generation II]].
'''Substitute''' (Japanese: '''みがわり''' ''Substitute'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].
 
It is:
* [[TM50]] in Generation I.
* [[TM90]] from [[Generation IV]] to {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} and in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}.
* [[TM08]] in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]].
* [[TR20]] in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
* [[TM103]] in [[Generation IX]].
 
It was {{p|Mr. Mime}}'s [[signature move]] in [[Generation II]].


==Effect==
==Effect==
By decreasing its [[HP]] by 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, the user creates a substitute with the same amount of HP as it lost. This move fails if the user already has a substitute or if losing the required HP would cause the user to [[faint]]. Substitute will fail if used by {{p|Shedinja}} (who only has 1 HP).
If a Pokémon has a substitute and is attacked by another Pokémon, the substitute takes any [[damage]] instead. (This includes the damaging turns of {{m|Future Sight}} and {{m|Doom Desire}}.) All damage factors use the owner's current stats (including maximum HP) and other traits. Any damage not directly from another Pokémon's attack (such as [[recoil]] damage or ongoing [[status condition]]s) will ignore the substitute.
The substitute will break when it loses all of its HP. It will also disappear if its owner leaves the field. A substitute can be passed by {{m|Baton Pass}} with the HP it has remaining.
{{m|Tidy Up}} will remove all substitutes from both sides of the field. {{m|Snatch}} will steal the effect of Substitute when it is used.
===Interactions===
A substitute also protects its owner from certain effects caused by other Pokémon. (Most effects are not affected by their user's substitute.) A substitute protects from:
* any [[stat stage]]s being lowered;
* all [[status condition]]s ({{status|poison}}, {{status|burn}}, {{status|paralysis}}, {{status|freeze}}, and {{status|sleep}}) and {{status|confusion}} (with some exceptions in [[Generation I]]: [[#Generation I|see below]]);
* [[flinch]]ing;
* {{cat|trapping moves|trapping}} effects;
* and effects involving the owner's [[held item]].
This protection covers moves as well as some [[Ability|Abilities]] like {{a|Intimidate}} and {{a|Poison Touch}} and items like [[King's Rock]] and [[Sticky Barb]]; but not {{a|Synchronize}}, {{a|Pickpocket}}, or the [[Wonder Launcher]]'s {{DL|Wonder Launcher|Item Drop}}. [[#Unaffected moves|Certain moves ignore substitutes]]; most notably, this includes all [[sound-based move]]s (such as {{m|Growl}}). A Pokémon with {{a|Infiltrator}} can also successfully use any move except {{m|Transform}} or {{m|Sky Drop}} on a Pokémon behind a substitute (since [[Generation VI]]).
These status moves will also fail if the target has a substitute:
* {{m|Copycat}}, {{m|Gastro Acid}}, {{m|Heal Block}}, {{m|Lock-On}}, {{m|Mind Reader}}, {{m|Nightmare}}, {{m|Pain Split}}, {{m|Worry Seed}}
** Because they have a protected effect: {{m|Bestow}}, {{m|Embargo}}, {{m|Flatter}}, {{m|Psycho Shift}}, {{m|Switcheroo}}, {{m|Trick}}, {{m|Yawn}}, {{cat|trapping moves}}
{{m|Sky Drop}} will also fail if the target has a substitute. These damaging moves will not have any effect besides damage if the target has a substitute:
* {{m|Circle Throw}}, {{m|Dragon Tail}}, {{m|Fling}}, {{m|Smack Down}}
** Because they have a protected effect: {{m|Bug Bite}}, {{m|Clear Smog}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Incinerate}}, {{m|Knock Off}} (damage can still double), {{m|Pluck}}, {{m|Smelling Salts}}, {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Wake-Up Slap}}, {{cat|trapping moves}}
(Some moves have changed regarding whether they fail or bypass a substitute; for those moves, refer to the list of {{DL||unaffected moves}} below.)
Creating a substitute will free its owner from [[bound|binding]], but it does not change any other conditions (e.g. a Pokémon that was [[drowsy]] can still fall asleep behind a substitute).
A substitute does not protect the owner from effects originating from itself. [[Berserk Gene]] and {{cat|Berries that may cause confusion|confusion-inducing Berries}} (such as [[Figy Berry]]) will confuse the owner of a substitute (except in [[Generation IV]]), and {{a|Effect Spore}} and other status condition-inducing Abilities will function normally.
{{m|Rage}}, {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Metal Burst}}, and {{m|Mirror Coat}} will not count damage done to a substitute (except in Generations I and II, see below). [[Enigma Berry]] and {{cat|damage-reducing Berries}} (such as [[Occa Berry]]) will not trigger if a move hits a substitute.
In Generations I and II (except the localized Generation I handheld games), {{cat|HP-draining moves}} always fail if the target is behind a substitute. Due to an oversight, in the localized Generation I handheld games only, HP-draining moves can hit a Pokémon's substitute, but do not drain any HP if they break the substitute. From Generation III onward, HP-draining moves except {{m|Dream Eater}} can successfully hit substitutes and drain HP from them; Dream Eater fails if the target has a substitute. Starting in Generation V, Dream Eater can also successfully hit a substitute.
If a substitute breaks in the middle of a [[multi-strike move]], the move will continue hitting the Pokémon that was behind the substitute. If a substitute is broken by {{m|U-turn}} (or any damaging {{cat|Moves that switch the user out|move that switches the user}}) and the attacker is replaced by a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}}, the substitute will block Intimidate's effect before disappearing. If a Pokémon with a substitute switches out while targeted with {{m|Pursuit}}, the substitute will take the damage before it disappears. If a Pokémon with a substitute uses {{m|Baton Pass}} while surrounded by {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, the Pokémon switched in will not be {{status|poison}}ed, but if it is a [[grounded]] {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, the Toxic Spikes will be removed.
===Generation I===
===Generation I===
Using 25% of its maximum {{stat|HP}}, the user creates a substitute with 1 HP more than the amount of HP lost by the user. If the user's current HP is less than 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will be too weak to make a substitute and the move will fail. If the user's current HP is exactly equal to 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will faint upon creating the substitute. If the user's maximum HP is 3 or less, it will not lose any HP when the substitute is made. A substitute will have the same type and stats as the Pokémon that created it.
{{incomplete|section|Check behavior in the {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}}}}
In Generations I and II, the substitute retains its user's color palette. (For instance, a blue Pokémon would create a blue substitute.)


Once created, any damage inflicted by the opponent will be redirected to the substitute instead. If the substitute runs out of HP (it takes total damage equal to or greater than the HP used to make it), it will break. A [[One-hit knockout move|one-hit KO move]], if it hits, will always break a substitute.
Also in Generations I and II, {{m|Rage}} counts damage to a substitute toward its effect.


While the user has a substitute up, the opponent cannot lower the user's [[stat stages]], nor {{status|poison}}, {{status|freeze}}, {{status|burn}}, or {{status|flinch}} it. The opponent can {{status|paralyze}} the user through a [[status move]]'s primary effect (like {{m|Thunder Wave}}), but not a damaging move's side effect (like {{m|Thunderbolt}}). Conversely, the opponent can confuse the user through a damaging move's side effect (like {{m|Confusion}}), but not a status move's primary effect (like {{m|Confuse Ray}}), and not if the damaging move causes the substitute to break. A substitute does not protect the user against {{status|sleep}}. If the substitute breaks after an opponent's move, it will do so after all primary and side effects of the move have been determined. Therefore, for example, {{m|Ice Beam}} will never freeze the user even if the move just caused the substitute to break.
;All effects below apply only to this generation.


A substitute will not prevent the user from gaining HP or from losing HP due to [[crash damage]], [[recoil|recoil damage]], or recurring damage from an already existing [[status condition]]. Additionally, Substitute will not alter the use of the opponent's {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Super Fang}}, {{m|Transform}}, or {{cat|moves that partially trap|partial trapping moves}}; the user's {{m|Bide}}, {{m|Counter}}, or {{m|Rage}}; nor {{m|Haze}} by either side.
The substitute's HP is 1 greater than the amount of HP lost by the user. If the user has exactly 25% of its maximum HP, it will create a substitute and immediately faint; this was fixed in Pokémon Stadium so that the user cannot create a substitute. If the substitute takes 255 damage, it will disappear.


Due to a glitch, if a user with a substitute takes self-inflicted confusion damage, the damage is applied to the opponent's substitute instead. If the opponent does not have a substitute, the damage effectively vanishes.
A substitute does not protect against any {{status|sleep}} effect; against direct {{status|paralysis}} effects ({{m|Stun Spore}}, {{m|Thunder Wave}}, and {{m|Glare}}); or against indirect {{status|confusion}} effects ({{m|Psybeam}} and {{m|Confusion}}). It fully protects against {{status|poison}}, {{status|burn}}, and {{status|freeze}} (as well as indirect paralysis and direct confusion).


If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Hyper Beam}}, it will not need to recharge. If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will not faint, though its picture will still disappear until it switches out (or uses Substitute itself). If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with a recoil move, it will not take any recoil damage. If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with a {{cat|HP-draining moves|HP-draining move}}, no HP will be restored to it. If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Pay Day}}, that use of Pay Day will not count toward the money its Trainer picks up at the end of the battle. If an opponent attacks a substitute with a multi-strike move, the hits will automatically end if the substitute breaks.
If the substitute is hit by a {{cat|binding moves|binding move}} (e.g. {{m|Bind}}), the Pokémon behind the substitute still becomes [[bound]]. In the Western versions, {{cat|HP-draining moves}} can drain HP from a substitute.


In Stadium, several oddities and glitches listed above were fixed:
{{m|Bide}} and {{m|Counter}} count damage to a substitute toward their effect.
* A substitute will always block the opponent from inflicting paralysis and confusion, as well as sleep (thus blocking all non-volatile status conditions).
 
If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with any of the following moves, their additional effects will be skipped for that turn:
* {{m|Hyper Beam}}: no recharge required
* {{m|Selfdestruct}} or {{m|Explosion}}: user's sprite will disappear but it will not lose HP or faint
* [[Recoil]] moves: no recoil damage will be taken
* {{m|Pay Day}}: no money will be scattered
* {{cat|HP-draining moves}}: will not restore HP
* {{m|Confusion}} and {{m|Psybeam}}: cannot confuse target
* [[Multi-strike move]]s: ends immediately after the substitute breaks
 
Due to a glitch, if a Pokémon behind a substitute takes self-inflicted confusion damage, the damage is applied to the opponent's substitute instead. (If the opponent does not have a substitute, no Pokémon or substitute takes damage.)
 
Some mechanics above are different in [[Pokémon Stadium (English)|Pokémon Stadium]]:
* A substitute protects from any paralysis, sleep, or confusion effect (direct or indirect).
* HP-draining moves always miss if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.
* If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will faint as usual.
* If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with {{m|Explosion}} or {{m|Selfdestruct}}, it will faint as usual.
* Draining moves will fail entirely against a Pokémon with a substitute.
* If the user's current HP is exactly equal to 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will be too weak to create a substitute.


===Generation II===
===Generation II===
In general, the fixed effects from Stadium in Generation I are retained. For example:
In Generations I and II, the substitute retains its user's color palette. (For instance, a blue Pokémon would create a blue substitute.)
* If the user's current HP is equal to or lower than 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, it will be too weak to create a substitute.
* The substitute will prevent the opponent from lowering the user's stat stages, inflicting any non-volatile status condition, or flinching it.
* The substitute will not prevent the user from gaining HP, nor will it prevent the user from losing HP due to recoil, an already-existing status condition such as poison, or other forms of recurrent damage such as by a {{m|Sandstorm}}.
* Moves that change effect based on the user's current HP (such as Super Fang) will not behave any differently with Substitute.
* Rage works as normal.
* If the user's substitute is broken by an opponent's Self-Destruct or Explosion, the opponent will faint.
* A substitute protects the user against draining moves, including an opponent's {{m|Pain Split}} (even if the user would gain HP from it). (The user can still itself use Pain Split normally, even if it would lose HP.)


Mechanics changed between Stadium and Generation II include:
Also in Generations I and II, {{m|Rage}} counts damage to a substitute toward its effect.
* The substitute's HP is now exactly equal to the HP lost to create the substitute, instead of being 1 + the HP lost.
* Leech Seed is now considered a draining move, and will fail against a substitute.
* If the user takes self-inflicted confusion damage, the damage will be given directly to the user rather than to the substitute.
* The user can use Bide, but the damage it inflicts will not count damage dealt to the user's substitute.
* Because recoil damage is calculated from how much HP the target has actually lost, if an opponent hits the user's substitute with a recoil move, the opponent will only take 1 HP recoil damage. ({{m|Jump Kick}} and {{m|High Jump Kick|Hi Jump Kick}} crash damage is calculated normally.) Breaking a substitute with a recoil move no longer prevents recoil damage.
* A multi-strike move can now continue hitting even after a substitute has been broken, then dealing damage directly to the targeted Pokémon. (However, as {{m|Twineedle}} performs the poison check only once at the beginning of the move, it will never poison a target with a substitute even if the first hit breaks it and the second hit directly damages the target.)
* Pay Day now works as normal.


Mechanics newly introduced in Generation II include:
;All effects below apply only to this generation.
* A substitute can be {{m|Baton Pass}}ed, and it will keep whatever HP it has remaining.
* While behind a substitute, the user is unable to use {{m|Counter}}, {{m|Mirror Coat}}, {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, or {{m|Endure}}. The opponent can still use these moves.
* While behind a substitute, the user is immune to an opponent's {{m|Lock-On}}, {{m|Mind Reader}}, {{m|Nightmare}}, {{type|Ghost}} {{m|Curse}}, and {{m|Sketch}}. The user can still use these moves itself.
* While most end-of-turn effects (such as Sandstorm) bypass a substitute, a substitute redirects the damage from {{m|Future Sight}}. It will also redirect the damage from {{m|Pursuit}} as the user switches out.
* Partial-trapping moves will not trap the user if they are behind a substitute. In addition, creating a substitute will cause the user to escape a partial-trapping move.
* If the opponent uses {{m|Swagger}}, the user will have their Attack sharply increased as normal, but the substitute will prevent them from becoming confused.
* If the opponent uses {{m|Thief}}, the user's item will not be stolen. The user can still use Thief normally itself.


The following moves are not blocked by the substitute:
{{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}}, and {{m|Endure}} will fail if used by a Pokémon with a substitute.

===Generation III===
The trapping moves {{m|Mean Look}} and {{m|Spider Web}} can affect a Pokémon with a substitute. The flinch effect of King's Rock can activate if an attack breaks a substitute (it will be blocked otherwise).
The following effects are carried over/expanded from Generation II:
* The opponent still cannot lower the user's stat stages, so the substitute will now block {{a|Intimidate}} (which is the only [[Ability]] affected by it).
* The opponent cannot remove the user's held item, which now applies to {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Knock Off}}, and {{m|Trick}} (the latter will fail even if the user is not holding an item). The user can still use Trick to lose its own held item.
* The substitute will block damage from {{m|Doom Desire}} as well as Future Sight.
* {{m|Yawn}} is blocked by the substitute, as it is considered a move that inflicts sleep. However, if the user was already drowsy from Yawn on the turn it created the substitute, it can still fall asleep.


The following effects are changed between Generations II and III:
If a [[recoil]] move hits a substitute, the recoil damage will only be 1 HP. This is because the recoil damage is calculated from the damage the target took (not its substitute).
* Twineedle now performs its poison check on both hits, and so can poison a target if it broke a substitute on its first hit.
* Rage's effect will now no longer activate if its user's substitute is hit.
* Swagger (and the newly introduced {{m|Flatter}}) will now fail entirely against a substitute.
* Pay Day now does not cause its Trainer to gain money if it hits a substitute.<!-- Constrast: In Gen II, it always gained money, in Gen I, it gained money unless it *broke* a substitute. -->
* Protect, Detect, and Endure now behave as normal.
* Damaging draining moves (''except'' {{m|Dream Eater}}) can now hit a substitute as normal, and the user of the move will gain HP depending on the HP the substitute lost. The same applies for recoil moves. (Leech Seed is still blocked by the substitute.)
* Trapping moves are now blocked by the substitute.
* Mimic is now blocked by the substitute.


The following effects are newly introduced in Generation III:
From Generation II onwards, multi-strike moves may now continue even after breaking a substitute.
* {{p|Shedinja}}, having a maximum of only 1 HP, cannot make a substitute.
* Substitute can be stolen by {{m|Snatch}}.
* {{m|Smelling Salts|SmellingSalt}} will not have any of its additional effects applied if it hits a substitute, even if the Pokémon behind it is paralyzed.

===Generation IV===
===Generation IV===
The following effects are carried over/expanded from Generation III:
In this generation only, [[Shell Bell]] does not restore HP when a move hits a substitute, and {{cat|Berries that may cause confusion|confusion-inducing Berries}} (such as [[Figy Berry]]) will not {{status|confusion|confuse}} their holder if it has a substitute when triggered.
* The opponent still cannot remove the user's held item, which now also applies to {{m|Pluck}} and {{m|Bug Bite}}. {{m|Switcheroo}} behaves identically to Trick.
* Like Counter and Mirror Coat, {{m|Metal Burst}} also does not count damage taken by its user's substitute.
* Similar to SmellingSalt, {{m|Wake-Up Slap}} will not have any of its additional effects applied if it hits a substitute, even if the Pokémon behind it is asleep.
 
The following effects are changed between Generations III and IV:
* Twineedle reverts to its Generation II behavior.{{fact}}
* Self-confusing [[berry|Berries]] such as the [[Figy Berry]] now no longer confuse a user behind a substitute.
 
The following effects are newly introduced in Generation IV:
* The [[Enigma Berry]] will not activate if its holder is behind a substitute.
* If an opponent's {{m|U-turn}} breaks the user's substitute, and the opponent then switches in a Pokémon with Intimidate, the substitute will not fade until after it has successfully blocked the new Intimidate.
* If {{m|Toxic Spikes}} are up, using Baton Pass to pass a substitute will prevent the recipient from being poisoned as usual, but if the recipient is a grounded Poison-type, the Toxic Spikes will still be absorbed.
* The user will be protected from all side effects of an opponent's {{m|Fling}}, including beneficial ones.
* An opponent's {{m|Defog}} will not lower the user's {{stat|evasiveness}}, but it will still remove fog as well as artifacts (Reflect, Stealth Rock, etc.) on the user's side.
* A substitute blocks {{m|Copycat}}, {{m|Embargo}}, {{m|Gastro Acid}}, {{m|Psycho Shift}}, {{m|Worry Seed}}, {{m|Heal Block}}, and {{m|Acupressure}} (for the latter, regardless of whether an ally or the user itself targeted the user with Acupressure).

===Generation V===
===Generation V===
{{m|Incinerate}}'s item-removing effect will not work against a substitute, but the Ability {{a|Pickpocket}} and the [[Item Drop]] from [[Wonder Launcher]] still will. A user behind a substitute can use {{m|Bestow}} to remove its own held item, but an opponent cannot use Bestow against the user's substitute.
In this generation only, {{a|Infiltrator}} cannot bypass a target's substitute.


If {{m|Smack Down}}, {{m|Clear Smog}}, {{m|Circle Throw}}, or {{m|Dragon Tail}} target a substitute, their secondary effects will not trigger. The move {{m|Sky Drop}} will not work against a substitute at all.
In {{2v2|Black|White|2}} only, due to [[List of glitches (Generation V)#Rough Skin Substitute glitch|a glitch]], if a Pokémon behind a substitute [[fainting|faints]] due to {{a|Rough Skin}} or a held [[Rocky Helmet]], the sprite of the Pokémon that was attacked will be replaced by a substitute.


A user behind a substitute can now use {{m|Acupressure}} to target itself, but can still not be targeted by allies.
===Generation VI onwards===
If powered up by a [[Normalium Z]] into Z-Substitute, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.


Substitute now blocks {{m|Transform}} and {{a|Imposter}}.
[[Dynamax]] Pokémon cannot have a substitute. If a Pokémon Dynamaxes while it has a substitute, the substitute will disappear.


Twineedle reverts again to its Generation III behavior. Dream Eater can now hit a Pokémon behind a substitute and acts the same way as other damaging draining moves.
===Unaffected moves===
{{MoveResearch|
* Confirm if Roar/Whirlwind are blocked in Gen I
* Confirm Supersonic in Gen V
* Confirm if Mimic is blocked from Gen III onwards
* Which moves are unaffected in Generation VIII and IX?}}
Since [[Generation VI]], a Pokémon with {{a|Infiltrator}} can ignore a substitute with any move except {{m|Transform}} or {{m|Sky Drop}}.


The following moves are not blocked by the substitute:
Different moves are able to ignore Substitute in each generation. Moves marked with a '''✓''' in the following table can affect a Pokémon regardless of its substitute. (This applies to moves used by one Pokémon against another with a substitute; if a Pokémon with a substitute uses a move that affects itself, it receives the move's effect normally.)

===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]===
Substitute turns the foe in front into a [[Status ailments in Mystery Dungeon#Other status condition categories|decoy]], causing other foes to attack it.
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Rescue Team]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|Adventure Squad]] series, Substitute targets the Pokémon in front of them, ally or enemy, and inflicts the {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Decoy}} status condition on them. The Pokémon with this status will be preferentially attacked by allies and enemies. The status lasts for 21-50 turns. This move is affected by {{m|Snatch}}.
 
From [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], Substitute instead causes the {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Substitute}} status by cutting the user's HP in half. The user will not be targeted by enemies, but the user cannot use moves or items, and cannot restore its HP naturally. If the user is attacked by a move (such as {{m|Earthquake}} which affects the whole room), Substitute will not protect the user from damage. The status lasts 11 turns.

===[[Pokkén Tournament]]===
{{Incomplete|section|needs=More thorough description of what sort of attacks are or are not blocked by Substitute.}}
Substitute is the move used by {{p|Whimsicott}} when called as a Support Pokémon. It conjures up a set of three dolls that rotate around the Battle Pokémon, blocking incoming ranged attacks. It also restores a little of the Battle Pokémon's HP.
==={{g|UNITE}}===
In Pokémon UNITE, Substitute is {{p|Greninja}}'s second move as {{p|Froakie}}. The user dashes while leaving behind a targetable decoy. The user is unstoppable while dashing. After evolving into {{p|Frogadier}} at level 5, this move is replaced by either {{m|Double Team}} or {{m|Smokescreen}}.
Substitute Dolls appear on their own as part of the Practice Area mode. Three Substitute Dolls are located throughout the stage. One is located in front of each team's base, and the last is on the far side of the middle of the top path. They can be attacked and shoved as though they are Pokémon. They are treated as being members of the opposing team, even though they are not displayed as such in splash and results screens. This means that moves that require targets that are opposing team members can be used on Substitute Dolls. The Dolls report the damage they have taken overall, the damage they have taken from basic attacks, the damage that they have taken from moves, the damage they are receiving per second, and the amount of time they spend under the effects of a hindrance. Substitutes have a large pool of HP, which can reset to full at certain points. The Substitute Dolls can be toggled on or off via the Practice Options menu, and disappear if they are set to off.

Substitute (Japanese: みがわり Substitute) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I.

It is:

It was Mr. Mime's signature move in Generation II.

Effect

By decreasing its HP by 25% (rounded down) of its maximum HP, the user creates a substitute with the same amount of HP as it lost. This move fails if the user already has a substitute or if losing the required HP would cause the user to faint. Substitute will fail if used by Shedinja (who only has 1 HP).

If a Pokémon has a substitute and is attacked by another Pokémon, the substitute takes any damage instead. (This includes the damaging turns of Future Sight and Doom Desire.) All damage factors use the owner's current stats (including maximum HP) and other traits. Any damage not directly from another Pokémon's attack (such as recoil damage or ongoing status conditions) will ignore the substitute.

The substitute will break when it loses all of its HP. It will also disappear if its owner leaves the field. A substitute can be passed by Baton Pass with the HP it has remaining.

Tidy Up will remove all substitutes from both sides of the field. Snatch will steal the effect of Substitute when it is used.

Interactions

A substitute also protects its owner from certain effects caused by other Pokémon. (Most effects are not affected by their user's substitute.) A substitute protects from:

This protection covers moves as well as some Abilities like Intimidate and Poison Touch and items like King's Rock and Sticky Barb; but not Synchronize, Pickpocket, or the Wonder Launcher's Item Drop. Certain moves ignore substitutes; most notably, this includes all sound-based moves (such as Growl). A Pokémon with Infiltrator can also successfully use any move except Transform or Sky Drop on a Pokémon behind a substitute (since Generation VI).

These status moves will also fail if the target has a substitute:

Sky Drop will also fail if the target has a substitute. These damaging moves will not have any effect besides damage if the target has a substitute:

(Some moves have changed regarding whether they fail or bypass a substitute; for those moves, refer to the list of unaffected moves below.)

Creating a substitute will free its owner from binding, but it does not change any other conditions (e.g. a Pokémon that was drowsy can still fall asleep behind a substitute).

A substitute does not protect the owner from effects originating from itself. Berserk Gene and confusion-inducing Berries (such as Figy Berry) will confuse the owner of a substitute (except in Generation IV), and Effect Spore and other status condition-inducing Abilities will function normally.

Rage, Bide, Counter, Metal Burst, and Mirror Coat will not count damage done to a substitute (except in Generations I and II, see below). Enigma Berry and damage-reducing Berries (such as Occa Berry) will not trigger if a move hits a substitute.

In Generations I and II (except the localized Generation I handheld games), HP-draining moves always fail if the target is behind a substitute. Due to an oversight, in the localized Generation I handheld games only, HP-draining moves can hit a Pokémon's substitute, but do not drain any HP if they break the substitute. From Generation III onward, HP-draining moves except Dream Eater can successfully hit substitutes and drain HP from them; Dream Eater fails if the target has a substitute. Starting in Generation V, Dream Eater can also successfully hit a substitute.

If a substitute breaks in the middle of a multi-strike move, the move will continue hitting the Pokémon that was behind the substitute. If a substitute is broken by U-turn (or any damaging move that switches the user) and the attacker is replaced by a Pokémon with Intimidate, the substitute will block Intimidate's effect before disappearing. If a Pokémon with a substitute switches out while targeted with Pursuit, the substitute will take the damage before it disappears. If a Pokémon with a substitute uses Baton Pass while surrounded by Toxic Spikes, the Pokémon switched in will not be poisoned, but if it is a grounded Poison-type Pokémon, the Toxic Spikes will be removed.

Generation I

050Diglett.png This section is incomplete.
Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: Check behavior in the Japanese Pokémon Stadium

In Generations I and II, the substitute retains its user's color palette. (For instance, a blue Pokémon would create a blue substitute.)

Also in Generations I and II, Rage counts damage to a substitute toward its effect.

All effects below apply only to this generation.

The substitute's HP is 1 greater than the amount of HP lost by the user. If the user has exactly 25% of its maximum HP, it will create a substitute and immediately faint; this was fixed in Pokémon Stadium so that the user cannot create a substitute. If the substitute takes 255 damage, it will disappear.

A substitute does not protect against any sleep effect; against direct paralysis effects (Stun Spore, Thunder Wave, and Glare); or against indirect confusion effects (Psybeam and Confusion). It fully protects against poison, burn, and freeze (as well as indirect paralysis and direct confusion).

If the substitute is hit by a binding move (e.g. Bind), the Pokémon behind the substitute still becomes bound. In the Western versions, HP-draining moves can drain HP from a substitute.

Bide and Counter count damage to a substitute toward their effect.

If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with any of the following moves, their additional effects will be skipped for that turn:

Due to a glitch, if a Pokémon behind a substitute takes self-inflicted confusion damage, the damage is applied to the opponent's substitute instead. (If the opponent does not have a substitute, no Pokémon or substitute takes damage.)

Some mechanics above are different in Pokémon Stadium:

  • A substitute protects from any paralysis, sleep, or confusion effect (direct or indirect).
  • HP-draining moves always miss if used on a Pokémon behind a substitute.
  • If a Pokémon breaks a substitute with Explosion or Selfdestruct, it will faint as usual.

Generation II

In Generations I and II, the substitute retains its user's color palette. (For instance, a blue Pokémon would create a blue substitute.)

Also in Generations I and II, Rage counts damage to a substitute toward its effect.

All effects below apply only to this generation.

Protect, Detect, and Endure will fail if used by a Pokémon with a substitute.

The trapping moves Mean Look and Spider Web can affect a Pokémon with a substitute. The flinch effect of King's Rock can activate if an attack breaks a substitute (it will be blocked otherwise).

If a recoil move hits a substitute, the recoil damage will only be 1 HP. This is because the recoil damage is calculated from the damage the target took (not its substitute).

From Generation II onwards, multi-strike moves may now continue even after breaking a substitute.

Generation IV

In this generation only, Shell Bell does not restore HP when a move hits a substitute, and confusion-inducing Berries (such as Figy Berry) will not confuse their holder if it has a substitute when triggered.

Generation V

In this generation only, Infiltrator cannot bypass a target's substitute.

In Black 2 and White 2 only, due to a glitch, if a Pokémon behind a substitute faints due to Rough Skin or a held Rocky Helmet, the sprite of the Pokémon that was attacked will be replaced by a substitute.

Generation VI onwards

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Substitute, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

Dynamax Pokémon cannot have a substitute. If a Pokémon Dynamaxes while it has a substitute, the substitute will disappear.

Unaffected moves

  • Confirm if Roar/Whirlwind are blocked in Gen I
  • Confirm Supersonic in Gen V
  • Confirm if Mimic is blocked from Gen III onwards
  • Which moves are unaffected in Generation VIII and IX?
    You can discuss this on the talk page.

Since Generation VI, a Pokémon with Infiltrator can ignore a substitute with any move except Transform or Sky Drop.

Different moves are able to ignore Substitute in each generation. Moves marked with a in the following table can affect a Pokémon regardless of its substitute. (This applies to moves used by one Pokémon against another with a substitute; if a Pokémon with a substitute uses a move that affects itself, it receives the move's effect normally.)

Greninja using Substitute

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In the Rescue Team, Explorers and Adventure Squad series, Substitute targets the Pokémon in front of them, ally or enemy, and inflicts the Decoy status condition on them. The Pokémon with this status will be preferentially attacked by allies and enemies. The status lasts for 21-50 turns. This move is affected by Snatch.

From Gates to Infinity, Substitute instead causes the Substitute status by cutting the user's HP in half. The user will not be targeted by enemies, but the user cannot use moves or items, and cannot restore its HP naturally. If the user is attacked by a move (such as Earthquake which affects the whole room), Substitute will not protect the user from damage. The status lasts 11 turns.

Super Smash Bros. series

Substitute is Greninja's down special. The substitute doll it summons resembles those from the core series games, though it can also summon a log. The move functions as a counter, attacking opponents who hit Greninja while it is posing.

There is a trophy of the substitute doll in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

Trophy information

If it looks like a Pokémon and it gets attacked like a Pokémon, it's probably a- Oh, no, it could also be a Substitute Doll. This cute plush figure appears out of nowhere when a Pokémon uses the move Substitute. Is that a smile on its face or a grimace of determination? Only the doll knows, and it's not telling.

Pokkén Tournament

Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it.
Reason: More thorough description of what sort of attacks are or are not blocked by Substitute.

Substitute is the move used by Whimsicott when called as a Support Pokémon. It conjures up a set of three dolls that rotate around the Battle Pokémon, blocking incoming ranged attacks. It also restores a little of the Battle Pokémon's HP.

Pokémon UNITE

In Pokémon UNITE, Substitute is Greninja's second move as Froakie. The user dashes while leaving behind a targetable decoy. The user is unstoppable while dashing. After evolving into Frogadier at level 5, this move is replaced by either Double Team or Smokescreen.

Substitute Dolls appear on their own as part of the Practice Area mode. Three Substitute Dolls are located throughout the stage. One is located in front of each team's base, and the last is on the far side of the middle of the top path. They can be attacked and shoved as though they are Pokémon. They are treated as being members of the opposing team, even though they are not displayed as such in splash and results screens. This means that moves that require targets that are opposing team members can be used on Substitute Dolls. The Dolls report the damage they have taken overall, the damage they have taken from basic attacks, the damage that they have taken from moves, the damage they are receiving per second, and the amount of time they spend under the effects of a hindrance. Substitutes have a large pool of HP, which can reset to full at certain points. The Substitute Dolls can be toggled on or off via the Practice Options menu, and disappear if they are set to off.

Trivia

A substitute "levitating"
A substitute in place of Masahiro Sakurai
A Substitute doll in the anime
  • In most games, the decoy and the Pokémon will switch places when the Pokémon executes a move. The only exception is in Pokémon Battle Revolution, where the battle animations play out as if the substitute was the one performing the move. It generally remains stationary, except when using moves like Fly or Bounce.
  • In the Generation I and II games, the substitute resembles Rhydon.
  • Shedinja can learn Substitute despite being incapable of using it, as its HP is too low to create a substitute.
    • However, in the Mystery Dungeon series, it is able to use the move, due to being able to possess more than 1 HP.
  • Substitutes are interpreted differently throughout all forms of Pokémon canon. In the games, a substitute is seen as an inanimate decoy which simply stands in for the Pokémon. In the anime, substitutes are seen to be clones of the user. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, substitutes are like the anime representation, but more spectral and transparent, as shown by Red's Pikachu in Peace of Mime.
  • In the Mystery Dungeon series, if the player eats an Allure Seed or X-Eye Seed, all other Pokémon appear as substitutes.
  • The Plush Toy enemy in the Mystery Doors of the Magical Land Series in Pokéstar Studios in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 is similar to a substitute.
  • In Pokémon Stadium, glitch Pokémon will appear as the substitutes. The color will vary, however, due to the player's ID and the glitch Pokémon's name. This is because the game treats the glitch Pokémon's name as a nickname, which cause Pokémon to change colors in the Stadium series.
  • In Generation VI, the size of the substitute depends on the size of the Pokémon using it. For example, a substitute made by a Kyurem will be bigger than that of a Flabébé.
  • During Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Direct on April 8, 2014, a substitute plushie is seen in place of Masahiro Sakurai as he goes to showcase some of the Pokémon available from the Poké Ball and Master Ball items.
  • This move plays its animation even if the battle animations are turned off.
  • In Generation I games, if the player used Substitute, then looked at the stats of a Pokémon in their party and then exited the menu, the opponent's Pokémon sprite would change to a glitchy version of the Pokémon that was just viewed.
  • The substitute doll appears in the Japanese merchandise line, the FuniFuni Mascot Collection Part 2 (a gacha set). Because it is a secret rare, it is labelled as "???" in promotional material.
  • In Generation VII, Substitute is the only TM that can be learned by all Pokémon that can learn TMs, except Pokémon that can only learn moves via TM that they can also learn by other means.
