Leech Life (Japanese: きゅうけつ Suck Blood) is a Bug-type move introduced in Generation I that deals very little damage.

Effect
Generation I
Leech Life does damage, and up to 50% of the damage done to the opponent is restored to the user. However, if this attack does 1 point of damage, 1 HP will be restored to the user.
If Leech Life breaks a Substitute, no HP will be restored to the user. If HP is restored to the user when its current HP is greater than its maximum HP, its current HP will be set equal to its maximum HP.
In Stadium, Leech Life will always miss if the opponent has a substitute.
Generation III
If the opponent has Liquid Ooze, the user takes damage instead of restoring HP.
