Wish (Japanese: ねがいごと Wish) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation III.
Contents |
Effect
The turn Wish is used, the user will make a wish. At the end of the next turn, the Pokémon in the user's current position will be healed by half its HP.
Wish can still be used even if the user's HP is full, but will do nothing if the Pokémon that should be healed has full HP.
Generation IV
While the effects of Wish have stayed the same, the order in which events happen in a given turn have changed, and Wish now kicks in before a Pokémon switches in for a Pokémon knocked out in that turn, meaning Wish can miss in such a situation.
