Psycho Shift (Japanese: サイコシフト Psycho Shift) is a Psychic-type move introduced in Generation IV.
Effect
Psycho Shift transfers any non-volatile status ailment from the user to the target, curing the user in the process. It will not transfer volatile status ailments (confusion, etc.), and will fail if the target is immune to the status ailment via type or Ability, or is affected by a status ailment already.
In Generation V, if the target has an Ability that activates in response to the status ailment, Psycho Shift will cure the user after that Ability is activated. Therefore, Synchronize will fail to reflect status conditions when Psycho Shift is used. In Generation IV, Synchronize would cause the user of Psycho Shift to also be affected by the status ailment if it wasn't immune to it.
