Only Heal Move?

The trivia section says that Present is the only move that heals the opponent. Isn't it true that Pain Split also heals the opponent? Just clarifying before I change it. --TraverseTown 17:41, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Pain Split article says yes. It's badly formatted too. :( —darklordtrom 20:23, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Present's glitchiness in G/S

I found an FAQ on GameFAQs that says that Present is glitched in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and only those two games (not even Crystal or Stadium 2 have the glitch). Basically, many of the variables are messed up when using Present, and the damage is largely dependent on the user's and opponent's types. While it uses this damage formula, the variables are different. Basically:

  • Attack will always be 10.
  • Level will be the index number of the opponent's second type (or solo type if it only has one):
Index Number Type
0 Normal
1 Fighting
2 Flying
3 Poison
4 Ground
5 Rock
7 Bug
8 Ghost
9 Steel
20 Fire
21 Water
22 Grass
23 Electric
24 Psychic
25 Ice
26 Dragon
27 Dark
  • Defense becomes the index number of the user's second type (or its solo type if it only has one).
  • Present is 1/4x effective against Rock and Steel instead of 1/2x effective.
