Reflect (Japanese: リフレクター Reflector) is a non-damaging Psychic-type move introduced in Generation I. It appears to be a physical counterpart to Light Screen.

Contents

Effect

Generation I

Reflect doubles the user's Defense when the opponent damages the user with a physical move.

Reflect will fail if the user is already under its effect. The effect of Reflect is ignored by self-inflicted confusion damage and critical hits. If Reflect causes the user's defense to reach 1024 or higher at any time during battle calculations, it will be reduced mod 1024.

Generation II

Reflect will be in effect for 5 turns and will halve physical damage done to any of the party Pokémon on the user's side.

Generation III

Same as above, but Reflect will disappear after 5 turns or when the opponent uses Brick Break or Shadow Shed in Pokémon XD.

In a double battle, Reflect protects both allied Pokémon, but only reduces physical damage by a third rather than by half.

In Pokémon Colosseum and XD, Reflect is shown as a blue-colored sphere composed of hexagonal deflectors.

Generation IV to V

Same as above, but if Light Clay is held when Reflect is used, it will extend the duration of Reflect from 5 to 8 turns.

In Pokémon Battle Revolution, the appearance of Reflect remains unchanged from its Colosseum and XD appearances.
