Stakeout (Ability)

2026-06-04T01:22:12Z

ABZB: /* Effect */ Added confirmation of how Ability works in gen 7 (located equivalent code in XY and ORAS, same there). Slight edit to wording to make it clearer that Stakeout does not trigger against Pokemon that switched in at the end of the previous round (due to Pokemon fainting) or that entered at the start of the battle. Updated research note, I am not familiar with gen 8/9.

'''Stakeout''' (Japanese: '''はりこみ''' ''Stakeout'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation VII]]. Prior to [[Generation VIII]], it was the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Yungoos}} and {{p|Gumshoos}}.

==Effect==
{{MoveResearch|Does Stakeout deal extra damage to targets that enter the battlefield as a result of {{m|U-turn}}, {{m|Flip Turn}}, or {{m|Volt Switch}} in 8 and 9?}}
===In battle===
Stakeout doubles the [[power]] of moves used against targets that have [[Recall|switched in]] during this turn (either from manual switching or due to the effect of Moves, Abilities, or Items such as {{m|Volt Switch}}, {{a|Emergency Exit}}, or [[Eject Button]]). It does not trigger when used against targets that were switched in at the end of the previous turn, or that were sent out at the start of the battle.

===Outside of battle===
Stakeout has no effect outside of battle.

ABZB: /* Stakeout and interactions with moves that swap out the user */ Reply

==Russian name==
Could someone please add the Russian name's transcription <nowiki>''Nadzor''</nowiki> --[[User:Raltseye|Ralts]][[User talk:Raltseye|eye]] 18:05, 14 June 2016 (UTC)

== Question Regarding "Switching In" Terminology ==

Does this ability also work when an opponent sends out a new Pokémon after one of theirs faints, or does that happen on the same turn as them fainting, such that the next chance where the Pokémon with this ability can attack the newly sent out Pokémon is on the following turn and the ability won't activate?
Is there a terminology difference regarding switching in a new Pokémon instead of attacking, versus sending out a new Pokémon after one faints?
If the answer to both of these questions is yes, is it worth drawing a distinction between these two types of sending out a new Pokémon, or is the difference that sending out a new Pokémon after one faints is on a different turn than when it can first be attacked more obvious to others than it is to me and therefore not worth mentioning? [[User:Lavince|Lavince ¯\_(ツ)_/¯]] ([[User talk:Lavince|talk]]) 22:31, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

== Pursuit ==

If this ability only doubles damage done to the replacement Pokémon, then does it not affect {{m|Pursuit}}? [[User:Eragon4|Eragon4]] ([[User talk:Eragon4|talk]]) 15:38, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

:Even before Pursuit was removed, Stakeout wouldn't have synergized with Pursuit because Pursuit does damage to the 'mon that's switching ''out'', not the 'mon that's switching ''in'', the latter of which is who Stakeout affects. [[User:Corrosive Cricket|Corrosive Cricket]] ([[User talk:Corrosive Cricket|talk]]) 09:39, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

== Stakeout and interactions with moves that swap out the user ==

Does Stakeout deal extra damage to targets that enter the battlefield as a result of [[U-turn (move)|U-turn]], [[Flip Turn (move)|Flip Turn]], or [[Volt Switch (move)|Volt Switch]]? Obviously this scenario only applies if the user of the above three moves is faster and capable of moving before the Stakeout holder. [[User:Corrosive Cricket|Corrosive Cricket]] ([[User talk:Corrosive Cricket|talk]]) 09:42, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

:I checked the assembly in USUM & set a breakpoint to see the function return in-game, I can confirm that at least in USUM, it ''DOES'' trigger from U-Turn, Red Card, and Eject Button, it doesn't care how you switched mid-turn, just that you did [[User:ABZB|ABZB]] ([[User talk:ABZB|talk]]) 01:08, 4 June 2026 (UTC)

Talk:Flower Gift (Ability)

2025-03-06T21:13:01Z

ABZB: /* When on a non-Cherrim Pokemon */

==Stats raised==
Smogon tested Flower Gift a long time ago, and found that it boosts Attack and Special Defense only. http://www.smogon.com/dp/abilities/flower_gift --[[User:ANinyMouse|Aniny]] 16:26, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
:Also, does the Pokémon have to be sent out in order for the ability to work? Or does it automatically increase the stats in sunlight? [[User:Tesh|'''TESH''']][[User_talk:Tesh|'''IGIGAS''']] 14:30, 9 September 2008 (UTC)
::(1) Logically, the Pokémon is not exposed to sunlight if it's not in the battle. (2) Do stat changes actually show up in the menu? I'm fairly sure they don't.--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 06:14, 10 September 2008 (UTC)

== Dispute to Cherrim line ==

"Cherrim, the only Pokémon to have this Ability, also changes forms in sunlight, from a closed flower to one with spread petals; however, this is not caused by Flower Gift."

I'm not sure if this is 100% true. Upon facing a Cherrim in battle in Gen V (where ability names show up on the screen when activated), I saw it use Sunny Day, and the ability Flower Gift showed up, followed by the text "Cherrim changed form." This makes me think that the form change is a direct result of the ability. [[User:Schiffy|Schiffy]] ([[User talk:Schiffy|talk]]) 14:26, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
:Has it been confirmed that a Cherrim who has somehow lost Flower Gift will no longer change form?--[[User:MisterE13|Mister]][[User talk:MisterE13|'''E''']][[Special:Contributions/MisterE13|13]] 04:39, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
::I can confirm that Flower Gift is triggered when Cherrim changes forms in Gen VI as well. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:27, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

== Generation V ==

In Generation V, does Flower Gift only change Cherrim's form or does it raise the stats as well? The current text makes it appear as if the former is the true case and should be modified, if the stats are affected as well. [[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 15:19, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

== Skill Swap ==

Can Flower Gift be Skill Swapped? It seems like form-changing abilities are generally restricted from being shuffled around, but it isn't mentioned, so I was wondering if this was an exception. [[User:Spudwalt|-Spudwalt]] ([[User talk:Spudwalt|talk]]) 04:34, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
:Yes. Flower Gift and Forecast can be Skill Swapped. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 02:30, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

== Generation VIII ==
Just had this happen to me. A Max Raid Whimsicott hit my Dyanamaxed, Sunshine Form Cherrim with Worry Seed and it stayed in Sunshine Form, even after the Dynamax expired despite by ability now being Insomnia. [[User:Kohdok|Kohdok]] ([[User talk:Kohdok|talk]]) 03:56, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

== When on a non-Cherrim Pokemon ==

Tested in Gen VI Omega Ruby, Flower Gift does not raise Attack nor Special Defense stats of allies when Flower Gift is held by an ally other than Cherrim. Therefore, Flower Gift's effect, along with the obvious form change, only works when its possessed by Cherrim.
Side comment: as Flower Gift is Skill Swap-able and the in-game description does not mention that it only works on Cherrim, you'd expect it to allow other pokemon to benefit from the ability aside from the form change but I suppose not.
:I can confirm from the game code - both the forme change and the Stat boosts are locked to Cherrim. [[User:ABZB|ABZB]] ([[User talk:ABZB|talk]]) 21:13, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

== Regarding Utility Umbrella ==

If a Pokémon holds a Utility Umbrella, is it unaffected by its ally's Flower Gift? Tested in Pokémon Shield, the user who holds Utility Umbrella is still affected by its ally's Flower Gift ability via Attack and Special Defense Stat Boosts. --[[User:Zonut|Zonut]] ([[User talk:Zonut|Talk]]) 04:08, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Lightning Rod (Ability)

|}

'''Lightning Rod''' (Japanese: '''ひらいしん''' ''Lightning Rod''), formatted as '''Lightningrod''' prior to {{g|X and Y}}, is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
Lightning Rod forces single-target {{type|Electric}} moves to target the Pokémon with this Ability.

If another Pokémon becomes the [[center of attention]], Electric-type moves will be directed to it instead of the Pokémon with Lightning Rod.

In [[Triple Battle]]s, Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type moves if the Pokémon is out of range.

====Generation III====
Only the moves used by foes are redirected.

Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type {{m|Hidden Power}}.

====Generation IV====
Moves used by allies are now redirected as well.

Electric-type moves used by foes and allies will now never miss the Pokémon with this Ability, unless it is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}} ({{m|Thunder}} will never miss a Pokémon in the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Bounce}}).

Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type {{m|Judgment}} or {{m|Natural Gift}}.

====Generations V and VI====
Along with its previous effects, Lightning Rod also gives the Pokémon immunity to all Electric-type moves, and raises the Pokémon's {{stat|Special Attack}} by one stage whenever it is hit by an Electric-type move. Electric-type [[multistrike move]]s (such as multistrike moves affected by {{m|Electrify}} or Electric-type moves affected by {{a|Parental Bond}}) will only activate this effect once. If the Pokémon is {{cat|Protection moves|protected}} from the move or immune to the move due to being {{type|Ground}}, its {{stat|Special Attack}} will not increase.

If a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is targeted by an Electric-type move while holding a [[Cell Battery]], Lightning Rod absorbs the move, so the Cell Battery's effect is not triggered.

Lightning Rod can now redirect Electric-type {{m|Hidden Power}}, {{m|Judgment}}, and {{m|Natural Gift}}. However, it will not redirect {{m|Sky Drop}} (if it was changed to Electric-Type by Electrify).

====Generation VII onward====
A {{type|Ground}} Pokémon will now activate Lightning Rod and boost its {{stat|Special Attack}}.

The Abilities {{a|Propeller Tail}} and {{a|Stalwart}} bypass the targeting effect of Lightning Rod but not the Electric-type immunity.

===Outside of battle===
====Generation III====
In {{game|Emerald}}, Trainers registered with the [[PokéNav]]'s Match Call function will call twice as often if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is in the first place in the [[party]] (even if [[fainting|fainted]]).
====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is in the first place in the [[party]] (even if [[fainting|fainted]]), there is a 51% chance the game will force an encounter with a {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, if one is possible. In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the chance is 50%. It shares this effect with {{a|Static}}.

====Generation IX====
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, this Ability has no effect outside of battle, with its former field function effectively being replaced by {{DL|Sandwich|Meal Powers}}.

==In other games==
==={{g|Mystery Dungeon series}}===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time and Darkness]], a Pokémon with Lightning Rod draws in all enemy {{type|Electric}} attacks on the floor, completely neutralizing them. Unlike the main series, Lightning Rod is capable of attracting moves that target multiple Pokémon.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], the effect is now only room-wide.

Starting from [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], Lightning Rod now also increases the Pokémon's Special Attack.

==Trivia==
* In ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', {{AP|Pikachu}} is able to defeat [[Blaine]]'s {{p|Rhydon}} by aiming his {{t|Electric}} attack at the Rhydon's horn, with it being stated that the horn acts as a lightning rod, apparently allowing Pikachu to overcome Rhydon's {{t|Ground|normal immunity}} to Electric attacks. However, in Generations III and IV, it didn't affect type immunity at all, and now nullifies damage from Electric-type moves starting from [[Generation V]]. In ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'', the ability Lightning Rod and type-effectiveness of Electric-type moves on Ground-types have been correctly depicted.
** Similarly, {{AP|Pikachu}}'s feat in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown!]]'' of insulating himself from [[Lt. Surge's Raichu]]'s {{m|Thunderbolt}} with his tail is similar to the Electric attack nullifying effect of Lightning Rod as of [[Generation V]], where it became the evolutionary line's [[Hidden Ability]]. Despite this, Pikachu's [[Ability]] is canonically revealed to be {{a|Static}} in ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]'', and has consistently remained so afterward.
* Prior to becoming an Ability, Lightning Rod [[Electabuzz (Wizards Promo 46)|appeared]] as a TCG {{TCG|attack}}.

'''Lightning Rod''' (Japanese: '''ひらいしん''' ''Lightning Rod''), formatted as '''Lightningrod''' prior to {{g|X and Y}}, is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

==Effect==
===In battle===
Lightning Rod forces single-target {{type|Electric}} moves to target the Pokémon with this Ability.

If another Pokémon becomes the [[center of attention]], Electric-type moves will be directed to it instead of the Pokémon with Lightning Rod.

In [[Triple Battle]]s, Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type moves if the Pokémon is out of range.

====Generation III====
Only the moves used by foes are redirected.

Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type {{m|Hidden Power}}.

====Generation IV====
Moves used by allies are now redirected as well.

Electric-type moves used by foes and allies will now never miss the Pokémon with this Ability, unless it is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}} ({{m|Thunder}} will never miss a Pokémon in the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Bounce}}).

Lightning Rod cannot redirect Electric-type {{m|Judgment}} or {{m|Natural Gift}}.

====Generations V and VI====
Along with its previous effects, Lightning Rod also gives the Pokémon immunity to all Electric-type moves, and raises the Pokémon's {{stat|Special Attack}} by one stage whenever it is hit by an Electric-type move. Electric-type [[multistrike move]]s (such as multistrike moves affected by {{m|Electrify}} or Electric-type moves affected by {{a|Parental Bond}}) will only activate this effect once. If the Pokémon is {{cat|Protection moves|protected}} from the move or immune to the move due to being {{type|Ground}}, its {{stat|Special Attack}} will not increase.

If a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is targeted by an Electric-type move while holding a [[Cell Battery]], Lightning Rod absorbs the move, so the Cell Battery's effect is not triggered.

Lightning Rod can now redirect Electric-type {{m|Hidden Power}}, {{m|Judgment}}, and {{m|Natural Gift}}. However, it will not redirect {{m|Sky Drop}} if it changed to Electric-Type by Electrify.

====Generation VII onward====
A {{type|Ground}} Pokémon will now activate Lightning Rod and boost its {{stat|Special Attack}}.

The Abilities {{a|Propeller Tail}} and {{a|Stalwart}} bypass the targeting effect of Lightning Rod but not the Electric-type immunity.

===Outside of battle===
====Generation III====
In {{game|Emerald}}, Trainers registered with the [[PokéNav]]'s Match Call function will call twice as often if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is in the first place in the [[party]] (even if [[fainting|fainted]]).
====Generation VIII====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is in the first place in the [[party]] (even if [[fainting|fainted]]), there is a 51% chance the game will force an encounter with a {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, if one is possible. In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the chance is 50%. It shares this effect with {{a|Static}}.

====Generation IX====
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, this Ability has no effect outside of battle, with its former field function effectively being replaced by {{DL|Sandwich|Meal Powers}}.

==In other games==
==={{g|Mystery Dungeon series}}===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time and Darkness]], a Pokémon with Lightning Rod draws in all enemy {{type|Electric}} attacks on the floor, completely neutralizing them. Unlike the main series, Lightning Rod is capable of attracting moves that target multiple Pokémon.

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], the effect is now only room-wide.

Starting from [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]], Lightning Rod now also increases the Pokémon's Special Attack.

'''Battery''' (Japanese: '''バッテリー''' ''Battery'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation VII]]. It is the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Charjabug}}.

==Effect==
===In battle===
This Ability reduces the [[special defense]] of Pokémon hit by allies' [[special move]]s by approximately 30%, or more precisely, divides it by a factor of 5325/4096.

===Outside of battle===
Battery has no effect outside of battle.

== (Prior to Gen VIII) Effect if hacked into the inventory ==

Can anyone hack pre-Gen VIII games to hack a Dream Ball into one's inventory and use it? Its catch rate outside the [[Entralink|Entree Forest]] is unknown. [[User:Exaskliri|Exaskliri]] ([[User talk:Exaskliri|talk]]) 14:40, 19 February 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Solid Rock (Ability)

2025-02-18T00:34:33Z

ABZB: /* Modifier is different in 3DS Games */ new section

==I can confrim for certain==
Solid Rock Reduced Damage by 1/3. I tested by having both a Rhyperior and a Camerupt hit by a Max Sp. Atk Kyogre And Rain boosted Max health Water Spout, while Rhyperior and Camerupt (Both being 4x weak to Water) each had Light Screen and 3 stages of Sp. Def increase passed to them, a well as Max HP stats and a certain amount of Sp. Def each. Using a modifier of 1/3rds(Thus the Water spout is only 2.66x effective instead of 4x), I calculated that they would survive with very little HP, then proceed to take out the Kyogre with their own attacks, which the video showed. If Solid rock was 1/4th, the two would've been KO'd right there, and if it was 1/2, they would've had much more HP left. All other calculations I've ever made using 1/3 reduction have been completely accurate to what I see in battle.
I can upload the vid to my youtube and post a link if you need to see it for yourselves. I can also post the damage calculation formula with the stats put in as well.[[User:JoeTE|Joe T.E.]] 01:47, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

==It has to be one or the other==

Bulbapedia says Solid Rock reduces super damage by 1/3. Serebii says by half. We should really find out which is which, I don't like seeing differences like this. A similar thing happened with [[Iron Fist]]. [[User:Toastypk|'''''~Toastypk''''']][[Image:Trozeiani157.png]] - [[User_Talk:Toastypk|'''Loom.''']][[Image:Trozeiani286.png]] 01:56, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

:I...don't know which is correct. Ourselves and Serebii seem to be the only two sources with specific reduction amounts. Sorry I can't help you. --[[User:Politoed666|ニョロトノ]][[User talk:Politoed666|''666'']] 02:06, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
:::well, after checking out some other sites, it seems like no one knows. ive seen 1/3, 2/3, 1/2, 1/4. im going to continue looking, but, um... -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 02:08, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

== Palmer's Rhyperior. ==

When Rhyperior was hit by Grotle's Energy Ball, hit hardly did any damage, so is this Solid Rock activating in the Anime?

== Trivia ==

I think there could be a trivia point that all Pokemon who can have this ability have at least one 4X weakness. I would add it myself anyway, except that adding trivia is forbidden right now due to B/W server load.--[[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] 02:23, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

Shouldn't we have the 4x as a trivia and not at the top?

== Modifier is different in 3DS Games ==

I've been researching the game code of the 3DS games, mostly USUM, and I found the code that handles Solid Rock and its two sister abilities (in battle.cro).

In XY (function at 0x000BC5B0), if the checks pass, it loads the value 0x49C to r2 and passes it to a function that (effectively) multiplies the outgoing damage by 1 - 1180/4096 ~ 71%

In ORAS (0x000C5CB8) and USUM (0x000D3920), it instead loads 0x1AB8 to r2, and passes it to multiply by 4096/6840 ~ 60%

2023-05-05T02:15:37Z

ABZB: small research question

== Additional information from Metal Burst ==

I was playing around with {{m|Metal Burst}} in Ultra Sun, and noticed that there were some details about its function that were not included on its page - I just edited it with that new information, specifically:

1) Only the last damage taken is counted (e.g. if the opponent uses Fury Swipes and does 11, 13, 12 damage, Metal Burst does only does 12*1.5=18 damage)

2) In a double battle, if the Pokémon that last damaged the user of Metal Burst faints before the user moves, Metal Burst will hit the remaining Pokémon, and do damage corresponding to that hit it took from that now-fainted Pokémon.

I don't have a copy of SV, so can someone who has them check if these two carry over to Comeuppance and update it accordingly? (I'm also curious if Metal Burst still has the two above properties tbh)

'''Metal Burst''' (Japanese: '''メタルバースト''' ''Metal Burst'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Steel}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
Metal Burst returns 1.5 times the damage dealt by the foe's last attack. Only the last damage taken will be counted, if the user is hit by a multi-hit move, only the damage from the final hit will be counted. Unlike {{m|Counter}} or {{m|Mirror Coat}}, Metal Burst does not require specifically [[physical move|physical]] or [[special move|special]] damage sources and Metal Burst does not have decreased [[priority]]; if the user acts before it is hit by an opponent's damaging move, Metal Burst will fail. The move also fails if the user's {{m|substitute}} is hit instead. In battles involving multiple Pokémon, Metal Burst will hit the last opponent that dealt damage to the user, even if that opponent is not adjacent to the user. However, if the last Pokémon to hit the user faints before the user moves, the remaining enemy Pokémon will be hit instead, like with a regular single-target damaging move (using the damage taken from the move of the now-fainted Pokémon that had hit the user). Metal Burst cannot affect allied Pokémon.

Metal Burst can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if any of the moves {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Taunt}}, or {{m|Torment}} was used in the prior turn.

==={{g|Mystery Dungeon series}}===
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], Metal Burst is a non-damaging move with 16 PP. The user will give itself {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Metal Burst}} status condition for 8-11 turns, causing adjacent attacks be reflected back at adjacent enemies for half the damage. Being a non-damaging move, it is affected by {{m|Taunt}}.

In [[Gates to Infinity]] onwards, the user will reflect 3/4 of the move's damage back at the attacker. The status now lasts 6 turns.

'''Pay Day''' (Japanese: '''ネコにこばん''' ''Coin for a Cat'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It is [[TM16]] in Generation I, [[TM57]] in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], and [[TM02]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]].

In Generations {{gen|II}} and {{gen|III}}, it was the [[signature move]] of {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Persian}}, and from [[Generation IV]] to {{gen|VI}}, it was the signature move of Meowth. In [[Generation IX]], it is the signature move of Meowth, Persian, and {{p|Perrserker}}.

* What is the maximum amount of money available per battle from Pay Day in all generations?}}

Pay Day deals damage. When this move hits the target, it scatters [[Pokémon Dollar|coins]] on the ground.

No coins are scattered if the target is immune to this move's type. The amount of coins is not otherwise affected by [[type]] effectiveness.

If the player wins the battle or ends it with {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Whirlwind}}, they will pick up all the scattered coins and receive the money amount.

The amount of money from Pay Day is doubled if any of the player's Pokémon takes part in battle while [[held item|holding]] an [[Amulet Coin]] or [[Luck Incense]]. (The effect cannot be increased by using Pokémon with both items or multiple items.)

No money is obtained in link battles, [[battle facility|battle facilities]], or if the player [[escape|flee]]s, [[caught Pokémon|catches]] the opposing Pokémon, or [[black out|blacks out]].

===Generation I===
Pay Day scatters coins with a value equal to twice the user's [[level]], up to 200 coins if the user is level 100.

If Pay Day hits the target's {{m|substitute}}, coins are scattered normally as well, except no coins are scattered when this move breaks the substitute.

In this generation, the maximum amount of Pay Day coins allowed per battle is 999999 {{Pdollar}}. After this, the game still states that coins are scattered with every use of Pay Day, but the value of coins stored by the game will not go any higher.

Leveling up in battle does not affect the amount of coins already scattered in the current battle.

There is no distinction of who used Pay Day in the current battle, as the player picks up all the coins scattered by their Pokémon and by the opponent Pokémon as well.

===Generation II===
Pay Day now scatters coins even if the target break the substitute.

===Generation III to V===
{{MoveResearch|Does the Amulet Coin error occur in Pokémon Colosseum and XD?}}
Pay Day now scatters coins equal to five times the user's level each time. The player can now only pick up coins that were scattered by their Pokémon.

The opponent's substitute now prevents coins from being picked up, even if the substitute is broken.

Due to {{DL|List of glitches (Generation III)|Pay Day glitch|a minor glitch}} in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the wrong amount of money will be displayed if the Amulet Coin is held (the correct amount is still gained after the battle). This error was fixed in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and all subsequent games.

===Generation VI onwards===
If the user levels up during battle, the amount of money is now calculated based on the new level, not the level at which the move was used.

If Pay Day is used by a Pokémon that has the Ability {{a|Parental Bond}} (for example by using {{m|Skill Swap}}) the "Coins were scattered everywhere!" message will only be displayed when the move hits for the first time. The second hit will not cause the message to be displayed, and will not cause an additional instance of coins to be added to those picked up after the battle.

[[O-Power|Prize Money Power]] and {{m|Happy Hour}} increase the amount of money picked up, and can both be stacked with each other and either the [[Amulet Coin]] or [[Luck Incense]].

If Pay Day is used during a [[Max Raid Battle]] or a [[Tera Raid Battle]], the "Coins were scattered everywhere!" message will not be displayed and money will not be earned after the battle, regardless of whether the opposing Pokémon is captured or not.

==Glitches==
In [[Generation I]], if the user has a level higher than 100 (which is not allowed in normal gameplay, but is possible via some methods such as the [[old man glitch]]), Pay Day still works as usual up to level 127, scattering up to 254 coins per use. This move scatters 0 coins if the user is level 0. However, if the user's level is between 128 and 255, Pay Day scatters coins with a value equal to (level - 128) × 2. For instance, Pay Day scatters 0 coins at level 128; 100 coins at level 178; 254 coins at level 255.

==Trivia==
* The Japanese name of the move is an {{wp|idiom}} equivalent to "to cast {{wp|pearls before swine}}." The coins depicted in the move's animation are {{wp|Koban (coin)|koban}}, {{wp|gold coin}}s used in the {{wp|Edo period}} of {{wp|History of Japan#Medieval Japan (1185–1573/1600)|feudal Japan}}, the same type of coin as the one on {{p|Meowth}}'s head.
* In [[Generation I]], Pay Day was one of only three methods (discounting [[glitch]]es) to earn [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] once all {{pkmn|Trainer}}s were defeated, the other two being selling items (obtaining them with [[Coin]]s after all other items are sold) and {{pkmn|battle|battling}} the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}.
* In Generation I, Pay Day can be used to obtain up to 999999{{PDollar}} per battle. However, this maximum amount would require using this move at least 5000 times in the same battle.
** For instance, obtaining the maximum amount of money in a single battle is achievable in this generation by using a {{p|Mew}} with Pay Day, {{m|Rest}}, and {{m|Transform}} against a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Ditto}}. Once Ditto transforms into Mew, they will both have the same moveset, including Pay Day, as well as Rest to restore their own [[HP]]. The opponent has infinite [[PP]] by default, while the player's Pokémon can indefinitely restore its own PP by repeatedly transforming into the opponent and obtaining its moves again.

== Updating the HeldItems template to support Legends Arceus ==
Any chance that the HeldItems template could be updated to support Legends Arceus? I am willing to at least make a dent in adding the info to the pages that need adding, but I cannot do that if the template doesn't support it. From the look of things, it seems like it'd be a pretty easy thing to do with a copy/paste and changing text where needed. I'm not a template expert though. -[[User:PancakeIdentity|PancakeIdentity]] ([[User talk:PancakeIdentity|talk]]) 00:13, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
: Thank you for drawing attention to this. I've added Legends: Arceus and (for when the time comes) Scarlet & Violet to the {{template|HeldItems}} template. I hope this helps! - [[User:BthrussellUK|bthrussellUK]] ([[User Talk:BthrussellUK|talk]]) 21:36, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
:: Thank you, it does! I'm wondering how we want to handle the more robust dropped item system in this game. Almost every pokemon has multiple items it can drop, and both can drop at the same time. In addition, each pokemon has different drops if its an alpha, it can drop grit if it's defeated in battle, and it can drop aguav berries if caught/defeated from a berry outbreak in a massive mass outbreak. I don't know if the current template is built to handle this complexity. Could we possibly add a new template with sections for regular drops and alpha drops. Should we bother listing the grit/aguav berry drops, considering they're independent from the species itself? -[[User:PancakeIdentity|PancakeIdentity]] ([[User talk:PancakeIdentity|talk]]) 09:12, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
::: Isn't that what is, at least partially, handled by [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_food_preferences this page]?--'''[[User:Team Rocket Grunt|Rocket]] [[User talk:Team Rocket Grunt|Grunt]]''' 10:11, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
:::: That doesn't show odds or alpha drops. -[[User:PancakeIdentity|PancakeIdentity]] ([[User talk:PancakeIdentity|talk]]) 18:03, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
::::: We're going to look into this further. The template is frankly a mess right now, so may require a rebuild, so we're going to look into how to intergrate the dropped items from Legends: Arceus, or whether they'd be better off with their own solution. - [[User:BthrussellUK|bthrussellUK]] ([[User Talk:BthrussellUK|talk]]) 20:30, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
::::::Thank you! Once the time comes, lemme know! I have all the drop rate info (not sourced from any other fan site), so I can do the grunt work of actually getting stuff onto pages once it comes. Just for my input, I also wonder if the technical difference between "held" and "dropped" items may warrant Arceus info having its own solution? -[[User:PancakeIdentity|PancakeIdentity]] ([[User talk:PancakeIdentity|talk]]) 06:39, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

== Question regarding game information not obtainable in normal gameplay ==

I recently added a couple of bits of trivia regarding Z-moves (that no NPC can use an Exclusive Z-Move, and that if they try, the game will crash, although this is not observable in normal gameplay as one needs to use a hacking device to make that happen) to the Z-move page. Another editor removed the latter bit, remarking that it was removed because it involved hacking.

I had looked around for rules regarding trivia about the games and their structure that could not be observed without using hacking devices or glitches, and could not find any, so I assumed that such was ok - is there a page in the manual of style that I missed, or is this an part of an unspoken guideline I should be aware of (like, I'm not complaining if it is, I just don't want to step on any toes)?

[[User:ABZB|ABZB]] ([[User talk:ABZB|talk]]) 18:24, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

:For what it's worth, I asked about the edit in the Bulbagarden Discord server and a non-Staff member said "'If the game does something it isn't supposed to, it crashes'. It just means something was not programmed into the game because it is never supposed to happen. Don't think it's notable." which a staff member reacted to in agreement and another responded with "The first part that no NPC uses those items might be fine though". That doesn't point to a policy or anything, but I felt I should explain how I came to make that edit. [[User:Exempt-Medic|Exempt-Medic]] ([[User talk:Exempt-Medic|talk]]) 18:56, 13 October 2022 (UTC)

::Understood. I found it interesting because of the exact timing at which it crashes - at the very end of the entire sequence, when the camera focuses back on the Pokemon that performed the move, right before the background reverts from the Z-move backdrop to the regular field - as far as I can tell with the currently limited tools available, the game is probably trying to call some animation or other model-thing related to the Trainer that initiated the Z-move that NPC trainers do not have (which seems unlikely, I can't imagine what that could be, but the timing and freeze suggests that the most strongly), leading to the game freezing. I had previously wondered if they were not included because GF ran into some difficult bug that they ran out of time to fix, or if they simply did not include it for gameplay balance reasons - that the entire thing works except for the mentioned freeze gives some weight to the "hard bug" thing. We probably won't find any more depth to that until 3DS coding and decompiling advance... I didn't put in the whole explanation because hardware/programming heavy trivia is very uncommon here, probably because we avoid emulation/ROM stuff in general, so I figured it was a bad idea to reference...

[[File:Sun Moon Z-Move artwork.png|thumb|240px|Artwork of a {{p|Pikachu}} using a Z-Move]]

A '''Z-Move''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｚ|ゼット}}ワザ''' ''Z-Move'') is a special type of [[move]] exclusive to the [[Generation VII]] games {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, in which a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and their Pokémon's wishes combine to unleash an attack comprising the full power of both. These moves are very powerful, but they can only be used once per {{pkmn|battle}}, unless {{DL|Rotom Pokédex|Z-Rotom Power}} is used.

==History==
The origins of Z-Power are largely shrouded in mystery. However, information by [[Professor Kukui]] indicates that Z-Power may be related to the energy produced by [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. [[Wicke]] also speculates that [[Lusamine]]'s losing consciousness after fusing with {{p|Nihilego}} in [[Ultra Space]] may have been due to the Z-Power surrounding her. Alolan legends found in the Malie Library also indicate that {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|SUS}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|MUM}} gifted the Tapunium Z to the [[guardian deities]] after fighting against them. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] reveal that the Z-Power that surrounds the user and their Pokémon when using a Z-Move as well as the aura surrounding [[Totem Pokémon]] are a result of {{p|Necrozma}}'s light shining down on Alola long ago.

==Z-Moves==
There are three different kinds of Z-Moves: Z-Moves which can be used by any {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, with one Z-Move for each of the 18 [[type]]s; status moves that have been turned into Z-Moves by one of the 18 type-specific Z-Crystals; and Z-Moves that can only be used by specific Pokémon. The Z-Move that a Pokémon can perform depends on the [[Z-Crystal]] it [[held item|holds]]. There are 18 different Z-Crystals that correspond to each of the 18 types, and several others that correspond to specific Pokémon. Z-Moves work by powering up one of the Pokémon's normal moves, so the Pokémon must also know an appropriate move. For the type-related Z-Crystals, the Pokémon must know a move of the same type as the Z-Crystal it is holding. For the Pokémon-specific Z-Crystals, the move required differs for each Pokémon.

A [[Z-Ring]] or [[Z-Power Ring]] is also required in order to perform Z-Moves. A Pokémon can only use a Z-Move if its Trainer is wearing a Z-Ring or Z-Power Ring and has the same Z-Crystal the Pokémon is holding. [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] and [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] Pokémon cannot use Z-Moves, even when holding an appropriate Z-Crystal (such as after {{m|Transform}}).

==Gameplay==
===In battle===
{{incomplete|section|needs=Are Z-Moves always obeyed?}}
When using a Z-Move in the games, a special cutscene plays, first showing the Trainer performing a certain pose, before shifting to the Pokémon surrounding itself with its Z-Power and executing the Z-Move. This cutscene cannot be deactivated, even if battle animations are turned off.

Z-Moves draw upon the [[PP]] of the Pokémon's original moves in order to execute, requiring and consuming PP upon use. When the Z-Move option is chosen in battle, a list of Z-Moves overlays the Pokémon's original list of moves, with each compatible move of the Pokémon's original moves overlain by a Z-Move option that draws upon that move.

Damaging Z-Moves derive their [[damage category|category]] ([[physical move|physical]] or [[special move|special]]) and [[power]] from the original move. For example, a {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} based on {{m|Nuzzle}} (with a power of 20) will have a power of 100 and be a physical move, while one based on {{m|Thunderbolt}} (with a power of 90) will have a power of 175 and be a special move. If the Pokémon knows more than one compatible move, it will be able to choose among different versions of the Z-Move with different stats, with the instance that has the highest power sparkling. Damaging Z-Moves do not inherit any other properties from the original move, so they have neutral [[priority]] and do not have the [[additional effect]]s of the base move.

Damaging Z-Moves bypass {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit, unless the opponent is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}.

Z-Moves based on [[status move]]s are enhanced versions of the original moves, having a Z- prefixed to the start of the status move's name. While they have the effects of the original status move, the user also receives a '''Z-Power effect''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｚ|ゼット}}パワー{{tt|こうか|効果}}''' ''Z-Power effect''), which is executed before the move itself. For example, Z-{{m|Splash}} also boosts the user's {{stat|Attack}} by 3 stages, while Z-{{m|Parting Shot}} also restores the switch-in ally's HP by 100%. These effects are not affected by {{a|Contrary}}, {{a|Simple}}, or {{m|Heal Block}}.

Exclusive Z-Moves can be used only by specific {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and require a specific move to be upgraded. They have a fixed [[damage category|category]] and [[power]]. Exclusive Z-Moves can be used by a Pokémon {{m|transform}}ed into an appropriate species regardless of its original species, if it holds the corresponding Z-Crystal; however, if the Pokémon who the move is exclusive to is transformed, it cannot use its own species' exclusive Z-Move unless it is transformed into another Pokémon of the same species.

Damaging Z-Moves cannot be fully protected against by {{cat|protection moves}} (such as {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Spiky Shield}}), instead dealing 25% of the original damage. Status Z-Moves can be blocked by protection moves, but will apply their Z-Power effects regardless. Like any other move, Z-Moves can be redirected by effects such as {{m|Follow Me}} and {{a|Storm Drain}}.

Z-Moves may be used without regard to the effects of {{m|Taunt}}, {{m|Torment}}, {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Imprison}}, and {{m|Heal Block}}; however, the Pokémon never has an opportunity to select a Z-Move if it is forced to use {{m|Struggle}} (e.g. if it is affected by Taunt and only knows [[status move]]s). Even if the target of Z-{{m|Heal Pulse}} or Z-{{m|Floral Healing}} is affected by Heal Block, that Pokémon's HP is restored. Status Z-Moves can be used without regard to the effects of {{m|Gravity}}, but Gravity will still cause them to fail after applying their Z-Power effect (e.g. Z-Magnet Rise will raise the user's evasion but then fail).

Even if a status Z-Move fails, it still applies its Z-Power effect. Z-Moves are affected normally by {{m|Powder}} and [[weather]]. {{cat|Weather-changing moves}} turned into Z-Moves (except {{m|Defog}}) will disappear as usual during [[rain|heavy rain]], [[harsh sunlight|extremely harsh sunlight]], and [[strong winds]], but will apply their Z-Power effects regardless.

The types of damaging Z-Moves are unaffected by {{cat|Abilities that can modify move types|type-modifying Abilities}} (although status Z-Moves' types are). However, their types are affected by {{m|Ion Deluge}} (if the Z-Move would be Normal-type) and {{m|Electrify}}.

If a Pokémon uses a damaging Z-Move on a Pokémon with {{a|Cursed Body}}, that damaging Z-Move can be disabled (with no effect on the base move). However, if Cursed Body would disable a status Z-Move (such as Z-{{m|Nature Power}}), the base status move will be disabled.

====Power====
With the exceptions of {{m|Mega Drain}} (120), {{m|Weather Ball}} (160), {{m|Hex}} (160), {{m|Gear Grind}} (180), {{m|V-create}} (220), {{m|Flying Press}} (170), {{m|Core Enforcer}} (140), and [[one-hit knockout move]]s (180), the powers of the type-specific damaging Z-Moves follow the following conversion table for base moves that have fixed powers. {{m|Struggle}} has a power of 1 as a Z-Move in the game data, which does not follow this table, but it is not possible to turn Struggle into a Z-Move.

==Z-Power effects of status moves==
When a status move is upgraded into a Z-Move, it may also gain a Z-Power effect in addition to its regular effect. Additionally, when used as a Z-Move, all {{cat|moves that call other moves}} convert the called move into its corresponding Z-Move, although [[status move]]s called this way do not get their Z-Power effect. Moves stolen by Z-{{m|Snatch}}, reflected by Z-{{m|Magic Coat}}, or instructed by Z-{{m|Instruct}} are not turned into Z-Moves.

Unlike other means that raise or lower stat stages, these are unaffected by {{a|Contrary}}.

==In the TCG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], a mechanic similar to Z-Moves, introduced in the {{tcg|Sun & Moon}} expansion, is a type of attack called {{GX}} {{tcg|attack|attacks}}. Known exclusively by {{tcg|Pokémon-GX|Pokémon}}{{GX}}, they are distinguished by a "{{GX}}" suffix following the attack's name, such as in "Pulverizing Pancake{{GX}}".

Like Z-Moves, {{GX}} attacks have very powerful effects compared to those of other attacks. However, each player may only use one {{GX}} attack per game. {{GX}} markers are used to denote whether a player has used their {{GX}} attack yet. If a player uses a {{GX}} attack, their {{GX}} marker is flipped over to expose its reverse side.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash Gigavolt Havoc pose.png|thumb|250px|Ash performing the pose for Gigavolt Havoc]]
Similar to the {{pkmn|games}}, Z-Moves are powerful moves that can be executed by a Pokémon that knows an appropriate move which corresponds to the type of Z-Crystal on the Trainer's Z-Ring. Z-Moves were first featured in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' in episode ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where {{an|Kiawe}} and his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}} used {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}, with the help of Kiawe's [[Z-Ring]] and [[Firium Z]], to defeat [[Zipp]]'s {{p|Yungoos}}, [[Tupp]]'s {{p|Salandit}}, and [[Rapp]]'s {{p|Zubat}}.

According to {{an|Professor Kukui}} in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', only Trainers who are successful in the [[island challenge]] can use Z-Moves. As seen with [[Ash's Rowlet]] in ''[[SM011|Young Kiawe Had a Farm!]]'', Z-Moves drain a lot of the Pokémon's energy, but with adequate training, the Pokémon can reduce the amount of energy necessary to execute a Z-Move. In a similar manner, in ''[[SM040|Balloons, Brionne, and Belligerence!]]'', [[Lana's Popplio]] failed its first attempt at {{m|Hydro Vortex}} since it was not strong enough to execute the move. In ''[[SM105|Showdown on Poni Island!]]'', [[Gladion's Lycanroc]], having endured [[Ash's Lycanroc]]'s {{m|Splintered Stormshards}}, was able to take advantage of its opponent's fatigue by finishing it with a Z-Move of its own.

Due to their vast blast radius and power, they can usually be used to wipe out many targets at once, like in a [[Battle Royal]]. Typically, bipedal or semi-bipedal Pokémon with arm-like forelimbs tend to mimic the poses of their Trainer during the activation. On the other hand, quadrupeds and the like, whose forelimbs show no manual dexterity, tend to stay still and wait until the activation is completed before acting.

As revealed in ''[[SM076|A Battle Hand-Off!]]'', a Pokémon using a Z-Move can receive Z-Power from multiple other people and Pokémon provided they do the Z-Move pose as well. In ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', {{an|Brock}} helped [[Olivia]] and her {{p|Lycanroc}} use a variation of {{m|Continental Crush}} he named (Japanese: '''ワールズエンドフォーリンラブ''' ''World's End Fall in Love'').

{{Ash}} first performed a Z-Move in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', with his {{AP|Pikachu}} using {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} thanks to the Z-Ring and [[Electrium Z]] Ash had received from {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Koko}}. After using the attack, however, the Electrium Z shattered, preventing Ash from using the move again until he obtained a new Electrium Z in ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]''.

In the Japanese, {{pmin|South Korea|Korean}}, {{pmin|Greater China|Mandarin Chinese}}, and {{pmin|Thailand|Thai}} versions, when a Z-Move is used, the name of the specific move is shown, like in the games; however, the names are removed in most other [[dub]]s.

==In the manga==
===Movie adaptations===
{{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu|Pikachu (M20)}} performed the {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}} Z-Move in [[ICYR1]] during a {{pkmn|battle}} against a {{pkmn2|Totem}} {{p|Kommo-o}}.

{{OBP|Marshadow|M20}} and {{OBP|Ken|ICYR}} performed the {{m|Soul-Stealing 7-Star Strike}} Z-Move in [[ICYR2]] in order to defeat [[Borosue]].

===Pokémon Adventures===
Z-Moves first appeared in the {{chap|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}. [[Olivia]] had her {{TP|Olivia|Lycanroc}} use {{m|Continental Crush}} while [[Nanu]] had his {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Persian}} use {{m|Black Hole Eclipse}} during an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}} against each other. [[Hala]] stepped in to stop both Pokémon before either could successfully use their moves.

During his battle against [[Gladion]] in an [[Iki Town]] festival tournament, {{adv|Sun}} inadvertently used a Z-Move with his {{adv|Dollar}}, allowing it to defeat [[Gladion's Type: Null]] with an incomplete version of {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}. Due to not knowing how to use Z-Moves at the time, Sun received Z-Power from a nearby [[Ultra Wormhole]] instead of building it up with a pose. Later, he was taught how to properly perform Z-Moves by [[Kiawe]] in order to battle Gladion a second time. With his newly-obtained Z-Ring, Sun and Dollar successfully used Inferno Overdrive properly.

At [[Mount Lanakila]], [[Ilima]], [[Lana]], Kiawe, [[Mallow]], [[Sophocles]], [[Molayne]], [[Mina]], and [[Hapu]] were attacked by a group of {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}}s and their [[Ultra Beast]]s. With the power of their barrage of Z-Moves, the Ultra Beasts were defeated one by one.

==Trivia==
* According to a book in [[Malie City|Malie Library]], the ''Z'' in ''Z-Move'' is short for ''zenith'' (Japanese: '''ゼンリョク/{{tt|全力|ぜんりょく}}''', ''zenryoku''<ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/ex/sun_moon/fight/160801_01.html トレーナーとポケモンが一体となって放つゼンリョクの攻撃「Ｚワザ」｜『ポケットモンスターサン・ムーン』公式サイト]</ref> "full power/force").
** Internal data in the games also refer to Z-Move as ''ZenryokuWaza'', which literally means "full-powered move".
* Some cutscenes when using a Z-Move bear similarities to the [[Appeal#Spectacular Talent|cutscenes]] used in [[Pokémon Contest|Pokémon Contest Spectaculars]] from {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.
* Not only does no NPC Trainer have a Pokémon holding a Z-Crystal for an Exclusive Z-Move, but if an NPC trainer attempts to use an Exclusive Z-Move (such as by hacking), the game will crash towards the end of the animation.

== moar detail ==

It's been confirmed that Zoroark/Zorua turns into the first Pokemon on your team, or the second one if Zoroark/Zorua is already the first on your team. Add to article, plz? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno.

== type ==

I remember reading somewhere that Illusion keeps the type of the Pokémon the same, meaning Zoroark will still be dark. Shouldn't that be noted?

It's pretty obvious by now that Zorua used it's illusion ability in the movie and it should be added to the in the anime section right?

ello? [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 02:27, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

::::I don't have the power to change the protection level of pages, but how is this? Is that what you wanted?

== Typing & Moves ==

The article isn't really clear on these. Does the ability affect the Pokémon's type as well? And if so, how does the ability react? For example, if it changed to the same type as the second Pokémon, which happened to be fighting-type, and Zoruark was hit by a Psychic-type move, is it super-effective or ineffective? And what about the second Pokémon's moveset? Is that copied as well?--[[User:Black Yin Zekrom|Black Yin Zekrom]] 22:00, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
:The ability doesn't change type. It apparently doesn't change moves either. It's [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig A]]! [[User talk:Turtwig A|My talk]] or [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|wiki edits]] 11:44, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

So what, you're telling me this is only good for tricking the opponent into switching for something Zoruark can fit or somethin? That
s a very limited ability.--[[User:Black Yin Zekrom|Black Yin Zekrom]] 02:35, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
* It might seem like that at first, but when you consider how frequently a lot of Pokemon are "limited" to only a small selection of possible builds, tricking them into sending out something that Zoroark can take easily becomes a good way to tip the battle in your favor. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 04:24, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
::A comic I read recently exhibits how Illusion is useful. The opponent has an Espeon out, you send out your Zoroark as a Machamp. Espeon uses Psychic, obviously, but Zoroark's Dark type negates it. Then Zoroark uses Dark Pulse and U-Turn and wins.—[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 18:10, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

== Speech ==

When Zorua (or Zoroark) transformed into a human in the movie, were they able to speak?--[[User:Darknesslover5000|Darknesslover5000]] 06:26, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

== Illusion vs. Transform ==

How, exactly, would a Pokémon react if it used Transform against an opponent with its Illusion up? Would it copy the Illusion, but become Dark-type and have Zorua/Zoroark's moves? Or would it just turn straight into Zoroark?—[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 05:21, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

:I'm pretty sure Transform doesn't work and the "The move failed!" message pops up. In other words, Ditto would keep using Transform over and over again and it would never turn into the Pokemon with Illusion, staying as a Ditto. [[User:RedLuigi|RedLuigi]] 17:07, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

== Name ==

The article says that Illusion affects the species name. How about nicknames? The “Tranier is about to send out Zoroark!” message should probably be mentioned as well. [[User:En-Cu-Kou|En-Cu-Kou]] 16:50, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
:It actually copies the species name, or the nickname if it has one. So, if you have Zorua/Zoroark as first in your party, and a Serperior named "King" as the last, when you send out your Zorua/Zoroark it would say "Go! King!" [[User:EnosShayrem|EnosShayrem]] 02:23, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

== Working on Zorua/Zoroark ==

Does this work if you try to use Illusion to copy Zorua/Zoroark? Two examples:
* If a Zoroark is in party slot 1, and a Zorua is in party slot 6.
* If a non-shiny Zoroark is in party slot 1, and a shiny Zoroark is in party slot 6.

'''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 03:07, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

:Just tested this out. Zoroark can, in fact, copy not only Zorua but also other Zoroarks, as differentiated by nickname (or lack thereof). A Zoroark's illusion of copying a Zoroark can still be broken, revealing the original Zoroark; even if the one it was copying had the exact same name/gender/Poké Ball/Shininess. - [[User:Saethori|Saethori]] 06:00, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

== Noteworthy? ==

Should it be noted that Illusion and Transform are similar in the anime?[[User:FrankTheTank000|FrankTheTank000]] 23:06, 4 July 2011 (UTC)
:No. And they aren't. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 23:16, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

== Huh ==

1. Zorua/Zoroark do not copy genders, so you can be a female Zoro disguised as a male Machamp, and the opposing opponent is a Tauros with Attract. It will work, like Captivate.

2. There is a way to know that the Pokemon in question is Zoro without attacking, and just viewing. Lets say Zoro copies a Weavy, and if you see closely, the Pressure message won't pop up, therefore you know it is a Zoro even before doing anything.

I don't know if these 2 things should be noted.[[User:Blitzamirin| ~ Blitzamirin ~ ]] 04:14, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

== Ditto Effect? ==

What happens if a player has two Zorua and one is at the end of the party? Will it fail completely or will it be like a Ditto vs Ditto kind of thing where it shows the effect of it transforming but nothing happens? [[User:Frenchhorn|Frenchhorn]] 19:19, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
:It will fail. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:12, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

== Mystery Dungeon ==

Shouldn't there be a description for how it works in Mystery Dungeon?--[[User:Darknesslover5000|Darknesslover5000]] ([[User talk:Darknesslover5000|talk]]) 19:32, 29 April 2013 (UTC)

== Effect on AI trainers ==

Does a Pokémon with Illusion actually trick the AI? Or does the AI cheat and still know that it's, say, a Zorua even though the Illusion wasn't broken yet? This could easily be tested. Put a pure Fighting or Poison type Pokémon (like Machop) in the last spot in your party, put a slow Zorua (just to make sure that the AI Pokémon goes first) in the first spot and go up against a trainer with a Pokémon that has Psychic attacks, but not ''solely'' Psychic attacks. 
If the AI doesn't cheat, it would use a Psychic move which is super effective against Machop, the Pokémon that Zorua appears to be. If the AI ''does'' cheat, it would never use Psychic attacks because those do no damage to Zorua. I can't test this because I don't own the game, but I feel like that's vital information that is sadly missing from this article. [[User:Nixitur|Nixitur]] ([[User talk:Nixitur|talk]]) 16:32, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
:FWIW, it won't be notable if the AI is indeed "fooled" by Illusion. That should be expected. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:41, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
::Maybe not, but what would be notable is how the AI would then react after that. If it tries to hit what it thinks is a Machop with a super-effective move and that Machop is inexplicably immune against that move, would it then blindly continue using that move, despite its ineffectiveness? Or would it get the hint that maybe things are not as they seem and switch to a different move? Both cases seem notable to me, but trainer AI is generally barely documented on this wiki, so that might be just me. [[User:Nixitur|Nixitur]] ([[User talk:Nixitur|talk]]) 18:26, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
:::You're right, that gets into whether we should talk about AI behavior at all, or where. And as far as this page goes, things are complicated by the fact that there is not '''''one''''' universal AI. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:58, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

== Usage by NPC ==

I thought I should point out that in the battle with [[Sidney]], when he is about to send out Zoroark, the message "''Elite Four Sydney is about to send in <Pokémon>. Will you switch your Pokémon?''" uses the name of the Pokémon it's disguised as (assuming "Switch" is enabled). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 04:28, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

==Learning A Move==
In Pokémon Sun and Moon, when a Pokémon with Illusion attempts to learn a new move (at least while not in the lead spot in battle, I have not tested any other way, this was something I came across while training a Zorua with another Pokémon in the last spot on my team while battling with yet another Pokémon) it seems to use the name of the Pokémon in the last slot of the party, such as"''<Pokémon in the last slot> wants to learn <Move>''". Seems notable.[[User:TraxScrip813|TraxScrip813]] ([[User talk:TraxScrip813|talk]]) 22:10, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

== Dynamax and Gigantamax ==

I've tested:
A) Whether or not Zoroark can Dynamax and become the Pokémon it is disguised as.
B) Whether or not Zoroark is able to Gigantamax when disguised as a Pokémon that can.
C) Whether or not Zoroark can Dynamax if transformed into Zacian, Zamazenta, or Eternatus.

I used Zoroark in the front and a Gigantamax-capable Flapple as the back pokemon.

Zoroark was able to Dynamax as Flapple, but it did not become Gigantamax Flapple.

Zoroark was not able to Dynamax as Zacian, Zamazenta, or Eternatus.

Therefore,
"If a Pokémon transforms into a Dynamax Pokémon, it will successfully transform but not become Dynamaxed. Transformed Pokémon can Dynamax, unless they are transformed into Zacian, Zamazenta, or Eternatus. Transform does not copy the Gigantamax Factor, so even if a Pokémon transforms into a Pokémon that can Gigantamax, the transformed Pokémon will be able to Dynamax but not Gigantamax. If the target is Eternamax Eternatus, the user transforms into the regular version of Eternatus."

Perhaps we can use this quote for the ability page as well.

== Interaction with Mega Evolution ==

If a Pokemon under an Illusion Mega Evolves, the dialogue will say <disguised name> Mega Evolved into Mega <disguised species' name>, using the same model for both (even if disguised as a Pokemon that can Mega Evolve). However, this series of events is only possible via hacking - should this interaction be noted on this page, or is it excluded because it is impossible to see in normal gameplay?

== Ally healing and Heal Block ==
Ally is healed by up to 50% of their maximum HP. My Porygon2 was healed from 24 to 96 HP, that's difference 72 from its full 145 HP.
Heal Block blocks healing via Pollen Puff entirely - if the user is under the effects of Heal Block, it prevents the use of Pollen Puff to heal an ally (but not to attack the opponent); if the ally is under the effects of Heal Block, but Ribombee isn't, it will allow Ribombee to use the move but it will state the ally is under the effect of Heal Block and it won't be healed. Can someone add this to the page please? I'm not exactly sure how to word it.

== Shiny Animation ==

I have a Shiny Decidueye in my current Ultra Sun playthrough, and I noticed that when using this move, in the initial animation unique to Decidueye (where it makes the bow from its wings and fires the arrow), both the bow and the arrow are colored black and red, reflecting its Shiny wing coloration, but in the second part (when the arrows does the loop and then hits the target's shadow), the arrow reverts regular, non-shiny tan color.

My first question is if someone who has a copy of Sword or Shield can check what the animation looks like in those games.

My second question is if the Decideye-specific animation is sufficient for this move to join {{m|Mind Blown}} and {{m|Dragon Darts}} as being the only moves with the animation being different for Shiny Pokemon (assuming the second animation remains non-Shiny in SwSh).

'''Misty Terrain''' (Japanese: '''ミストフィールド''' ''Mist Field'') is a non-damaging {{type|Fairy}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. It is [[TM89]] in [[Generation VIII]].

==Effect==
===Generation VI===
Misty Terrain creates [[terrain]] that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.

This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are [[grounded|on the ground]] and not in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move.
*It halves the [[power]] of {{type|Dragon}} moves used against affected Pokémon (regardless of whether the user of the move is affected by Misty Terrain).
*It prevents affected Pokémon from being afflicted by [[Status condition#Non-volatile status|non-volatile status conditions]].
**If an affected Pokémon is drowsy due to {{m|Yawn}}, it is prevented from falling asleep.
**{{m|Rest}} will fail if used by an affected Pokémon.
*{{m|Nature Power}} becomes {{m|Moonblast}}.
*{{m|Secret Power}} uses the animation of {{m|Fairy Wind}} and may lower its target's {{stat|Special Attack}}.
*{{m|Camouflage}} causes the user to become {{type|Fairy}}.

[[Natural objects]] disappear and cannot be destroyed while Misty Terrain is in effect. Misty Terrain does not prevent Pokémon from being {{status|confusion|confused}}.

===Generation VII===
Pokémon affected by Misty Terrain can no longer become {{status|confusion|confused}}.

When a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Misty Surge}} enters battle, Misty Terrain is automatically created.

If a Pokémon is holding a [[Misty Seed]] while the field is Misty Terrain, it consumes the Misty Seed and its {{stat|Special Defense}} is increased by one stage (even if it is not otherwise affected by the terrain). If a [[Terrain Extender]] is held when Misty Terrain is used, the terrain will last 8 turns instead of 5.

If powered up by a [[Fairium Z]] into Z-Misty Terrain, the user's {{stat|Special Defense}} stat rises by one stage.
===Generation VIII===
Misty Terrain now:
*Increases {{m|Misty Explosion}}'s base power by 1.5x.
*Changes {{m|Terrain Pulse}}'s [[type]] changes to [[Fairy-type|Fairy]] and its base power doubles from 50 to 100.
*Changes Pokémon with {{a|Mimicry}} to {{type|Fairy}}.
Misty Terrain is automatically created when {{m|Max Starfall}} is used.

'''Electric Terrain''' (Japanese: '''エレキフィールド''' ''Elec Field'') is a non-damaging {{type|Electric}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. It is [[TM90]] in [[Generation VIII]].

==Effect==
===Generations VI to VII===
Electric Terrain creates [[terrain]] that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.

This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are [[grounded|on the ground]] and not in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move.
*It boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Electric}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 50% (regardless of whether the target of the move is affected by Electric Terrain). This boost includes moves that became Electric type due to type-changing moves like {{m|Electrify}}.
*It prevents affected Pokémon from being afflicted by {{status|sleep}} or {{m|Yawn}}.
**If an affected Pokémon is already drowsy due to Yawn, it is prevented from falling asleep and the drowsy effect will end.
**{{m|Rest}} will fail if used by an affected Pokémon.
*{{m|Nature Power}} becomes {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
*{{m|Secret Power}} uses the animation of {{m|Thunder Shock}} and may cause {{status|paralysis}}.
*{{m|Camouflage}} causes the user to become {{type|Electric}}.

[[Natural objects]] disappear and cannot be destroyed while Electric Terrain is in effect.

When a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Electric Surge}} enters battle, Electric Terrain is automatically created. Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Surge Surfer}} have their {{stat|Speed}} stat doubled when under the effects of Electric Terrain.

If a [[Terrain Extender]] is held when Electric Terrain is used, the terrain will last 8 turns instead of 5. If a Pokémon is holding an [[Electric Seed]] while the field is Electric Terrain, it consumes the Electric Seed and its {{stat|Defense}} is increased by one stage (even if it is not otherwise affected by the terrain).

If powered up by an [[Electrium Z]] into Z-Electric Terrain, the user's {{stat|Speed}} stat is raised by one stage.

===Generation VIII===
Electric Terrain now:
*Boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Electric}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 30% instead of the previous 50%.
*Double's {{m|Rising Voltage}}'s base power from 70 to 140 if used on a target on Electric Terrain.
*Changes {{m|Terrain Pulse}}'s [[type]] to [[Electric-type|Electric]] and doubles its base power from 50 to 100.
*Changes Pokémon with {{a|Mimicry}} to {{type|Electric}}.
Electric Terrain is automatically created when {{m|Max Lightning}} is used.

'''Psychic Terrain''' (Japanese: '''サイコフィールド''' ''Psycho Field'') is a non-damaging {{type|Psychic}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VII]]. It is [[TM91]] in [[Generation VIII]].

==Effect==
===Generation VII===
Psychic Terrain creates [[terrain]] that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.

This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are [[grounded|on the ground]] and not in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move.
*It boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Psychic}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 50% (regardless of whether the target of the move is affected by Psychic Terrain).
*It immunizes affected Pokémon from opponents' moves with increased [[priority]] (including moves boosted by {{a|Prankster}}, {{a|Gale Wings}}, or {{a|Triage}}).
**{{cat|Moves that target all Pokémon}} (except {{m|Perish Song}}, {{m|Flower Shield}}, and {{m|Rototiller}}) and {{cat|moves that target all foes}} cannot be blocked by Psychic Terrain even if they become priority moves.
*{{m|Nature Power}} becomes {{m|Psychic}}.
*{{m|Secret Power}} uses the animation of {{m|Confusion}} and may lower its target's {{stat|Speed}}.
*{{m|Camouflage}} causes the user to become {{type|Psychic}}.

When a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Psychic Surge}} enters battle, Psychic Terrain is automatically created. Upon successfully doing damage, {{m|Genesis Supernova}} creates Psychic Terrain on the field.

If a Pokémon is holding a [[Psychic Seed]] while the field is Psychic Terrain, it consumes the Psychic Seed and its {{stat|Special Defense}} is increased by one stage (even if it is not otherwise affected by the terrain). If a [[Terrain Extender]] is held when Psychic Terrain is used, the terrain will last 8 turns instead of 5.

If powered up by a [[Psychium Z]] into Z-Psychic Terrain, the user's {{stat|Special Attack}} stat rises by one stage.

===Generation VIII===
Psychic Terrain now:
*Boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Psychic}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 30% instead of the previous 50%.
*Boosts the power of {{m|Expanding Force}} by 1.5×, and if the setting is a [[Double Battle]], the move's target will be changed to hit both opposing Pokémon.
*Changes {{m|Terrain Pulse}}'s [[type]] to [[Psychic-type|Psychic]] and doubles its base power from 50 to 100.
*Changes Pokémon with {{a|Mimicry}} to {{type|Psychic}}.
Psychic Terrain is automatically created when {{m|Max Mindstorm}} is used.

'''Grassy Terrain''' (Japanese: '''グラスフィールド''' ''Grass Field'') is a non-damaging {{type|Grass}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. It is [[TM88]] in [[Generation VIII]].

==Effect==
===Generations VI to VII===
Grassy Terrain creates [[terrain]] that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.

This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are [[grounded|on the ground]] and not in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move.
*It boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Grass}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 50% (regardless of whether the target of the move is affected by Grassy Terrain).
*At the end of each turn, the terrain restores the {{stat|HP}} of each affected Pokémon by 1/16 of its maximum HP.
* Causes {{m|Floral Healing}} to restore restore up to ⅔ of the target's maximum HP instead of the usual ½.
*Unless the target is in the {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|semi-invulnerable turn}} of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Dive}}, the [[power]] of {{m|Bulldoze}}, {{m|Earthquake}}, and {{m|Magnitude}} is halved (even if the user or the target is not grounded).
*{{m|Nature Power}} becomes {{m|Energy Ball}}.
*{{m|Secret Power}} uses the animation of {{m|Vine Whip}} and may cause {{status|sleep}}.
*{{m|Camouflage}} causes the user to become {{type|Grass}}.

[[Natural objects]] disappear and cannot be destroyed while Grassy Terrain is in effect.

When a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Grassy Surge}} enters battle, Grassy Terrain is automatically created. When a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Grass Pelt}} enters battle, its {{stat|Defense}} stat is boosted by 50%.

If a [[Terrain Extender]] is held when Grassy Terrain is used, the terrain will last 8 turns instead of 5. If a Pokémon is holding a [[Grassy Seed]] while the field is Grassy Terrain, it consumes the Grassy Seed and its {{stat|Defense}} is increased by one stage (even if it is not otherwise affected by the terrain).

If powered up by a [[Grassium Z]] into Z-Grassy Terrain, the user's {{stat|Defense}} stat rises by one stage.

===Generation VIII===
Grassy Terrain now:
*Boosts the [[power]] of {{type|Grass}} moves used by affected Pokémon by 30% instead of the previous 50%.
*Changes {{m|Terrain Pulse}}'s [[type]] to [[Grass-type|Grass]] and doubles its base power from 50 to 100.
*Increases {{m|Grassy Glide}}'s [[priority]] by one.
*Changes Pokémon with {{a|Mimicry}} to {{type|Grass}}.
Grassy Terrain is automatically created when {{m|Max Overgrowth}} is used.

'''Submission''' (Japanese: '''じごくぐるま''' ''Hell Wheel'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Fighting}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[TM17]] in Generation I.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Submission does damage, and the user receives [[recoil]] damage equal to 25% of the damage done to the target.

If the user of Submission attacks first and faints due to recoil damage, the target will not attack or be subjected to recurrent damage during that round. However, the user will still be subject to recurrent damage even if the target faints. Self-inflicted recoil damage from Submission from the previous turn can be countered if the target does not make a move on the following turn. If Submission breaks a {{m|substitute}}, the user will take no recoil damage.

In Stadium, no recoil damage is taken if Submission knocks out a target.

===Generations II-V===
The user will take recoil damage even if Submission breaks a substitute.

Submission can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining extra six appeal points if move {{m|Mind Reader}} was used in the prior turn.

===Generation VI===
Submission's PP was changed from 25 to 20.

==Trivia==
* The move's Japanese name, じごくぐるま ''Hell Wheel'', is a reference to a manga ''Jūdō Icchokusen'' by {{wp|Ikki Kajiwara}}.
* This move's English name comes from the professional wrestling term {{wp|Grappling hold#Submission hold|submission hold)}}, which is executed as a variety of {{wp|Mixed martial arts|MMA}} or {{wp|jujutsu}}-inspired holds such as an {{wp|armlock}}, {{wp|leglock}}, or {{wp|chokehold}}, in the hopes the opponent will either give up or be incapacitated to the point that they can no longer fight. This does not match the move's appearance in the anime.
* Submission has the lowest base power of all [[recoil]] moves (besides {{m|Struggle}}), as well as the highest number of PP.
* Submission's description in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and {{pkmn|Stadium 2}} falsely states it is the strongest Fighting-type attack - in [[Generation I]], {{m|High Jump Kick}} is stronger in terms of base power.

Talk:Water Bubble (Ability)

2020-07-30T21:39:58Z

ABZB: /* File:Wording of in-depth Effect */

== File:Wording of in-depth Effect ==

Water Bubble applies double the attack stat in place of the attack stat of the attacking Pokemon when using a Water move, it doesn't double the Power or apply a modifier in the damage formula. The only practical difference is perhaps a point or two of damage from rounding. As such, I would think to edit the article to say
:"Water Bubble halves the damage dealt to the Pokémon with this Ability by Fire-type attacks and temporarily doubles the effective attack stat of the Pokémon with this Ability while it is using a Water Move."
but I feel that the wording is awkward at best and confusing at worst.

ABZB:

Just out of curiosity, why is Dragon Hammer considered a variation of {{m|Surf}}. Yeah, Surf, {{m|Petal Blizzard}}, and it share the same Base Power/PP/Accuracy, but Dragon Hammer is the only one of the three that doesn't affect ''all'' adjacent Pokémon on the field, it only can target one Pokémon.

:Dragon hammer is not listed in the actual [[move variations]] page, and Variations of Surf said that the moves affect everyone adjacent instead of a specific target.

== Evolving into Leafeon and Glaceon ==

I thought when an you want to evolve Eevee into Leafeon or Glaceon, you had to be in the same patch of grass as the Mossy Rock or Frosty Rock.

== Leaf/Glace in HGSS ==
Do you have to trade Eevee to DPPt to evolve or is there a place in HGSS?
I can't really trade cos I'm not always around someone with a DS. (Although, I can always trade over WiFi.) [[User:SallieEspeon|Hullo! My name is Sallie and I am a Cloud fangirl. w00t!]] 22:06, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

== Eeveelutions To Be Created ==
I think it should be mentiond in the trivia that Eevee has yet to gain evolutions of normal, fighting, dragon, poison, ground, rock, steel, flying, bug, and ghost types. Is it okay if i put this in there? [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 10:07, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
:Um... no. It can be assumed that it doesn't have evolutions of those types by reading which types it CAN evolve into. Including that as trivia would be like including that that Wormadam doesn't have a fire/water/ice/etc. cloak. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 20:05, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

== RSE Pokédex ==

== First appearance of evolutions in the anime ==

In the trivia section, one of the items states that the first onscreen appearance of an Eevee evolution was in DP, "thirteen years" into the series (the item begins, "Despite the fact..."). Am I interpreting this incorrectly? All three of the original evolutions are in [[The Battling Eevee Brothers]], and appear again in [[The Ultimate Test]]. Am I insane?

[[User:Bobbadagirl|Bobbadagirl]] 02:23, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

== Eevee's Gender Ratio ==

It used to be 12.5% male and 82.5% female... I can't find the edit that it changed but it was.. I know it was because I spent an entire night breeding to get the eeveelutions with the perfect characteristics for each one.. Ended up with two and a half boxes of eevees and only about 9 of them were male.. Can someone else varify this and/or fix it? I can't find the edit to revert it myself.

== Could somebody add this to the Moves obtained by Breeding templaye? ==

eevee (and, by extension, all evo's) can gain the Move Shadow Ball by breeding. HOWEVER, i do not know what the espeon i got from a random Japanese guy was bred with, sooooooo...

== Espeon and Umbreon obtainable in RSE? ==

Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald all have internal clocks. Does this mean Espeon and Umbreon can evolve from Eevee in these games?
If the answer's "no", then is there any way to obtain Espeon and Umbreon (in Generation III) without owning XD? [[User:SoItBegins|SoItBegins]] 09:03, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

==What would happen if...==
What would happen if Eevee was evolving via friendship at 7:59 PM, and while it was evolving it became 8:00 PM? (Isn't 8:00 when most night-based evolutions happen? If it isn't, let me know and I'll facepalm myself....) Would Eevee become Espeon or Umbreon???[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 00:36, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
:If it's in the middle of the actual evolve sequence when the time changes, then won't switch once the animation's started, it'll use the former time. I'd be interested to know precisely where in the sequence it actually checks the time, I'd guess it's when the battle ends and it checks to see whether any Pokémon have met the conditions to evolve. Which would mean that once it's in the evolve screen, it's already decided.

:Also, the change between day and night is different depending on what Generation game you're playing and what season it is (for Gen V). Full details can be found on our [[time]] page. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 03:03, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

== "Eievui" - what on earth?! ==

Um, for the Japanese name of Eevee to be romanized as "Eievui" it would literally have to be エイエヴイ; last time I checked it was イーブイ, which romanizes as "iivui" (or "īvui", as Wikipedia standards would like for us to believe). Can anyone explain to me why it's so incredibly, blatantly wrong? -[[User:Wohdin|Wohdin]] ([[User talk:Wohdin|talk]]) 02:12, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

== Evolution precedence ==

It has been established that location-based Eeveelutions take precedence over those with other level-up requirements. My question is: would an Eevee with high friendship as well as 2 Affection hearts and a Fairy-type move always only attempt to evolve into Sylveon upon leveling up, or is there maybe a 50-50 chance that it might instead become Espeon or Umbreon (depending on time of day)? My guess is that it might only become Espeon or Umbreon if the criteria for Eevee to become Sylveon are not present because it would be the more readily changeable condition; making a Pokémon forget a move is easier to accomplish than dragging down its friendship rating, right? [[User:ILOVETOGETIC|I♥Togetic]] ([[User talk:ILOVETOGETIC|talk]]) 09:31, 8 November 2013 (UTC)
:It would seem that Sylveon takes precedence over Espeon/Umbreon from several accounts I've heard while looking into this of people trying to get Sylveon having Eevee trying to evolve into Espeon/Umbreon until a fairy-type move is learned, which then causes Eevee to become Sylveon on the next level. Evolution precedence information should be added to the article.[[User:Dancinswords|Dancinswords]] ([[User talk:Dancinswords|talk]]) 06:52, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

== Charm and Covet Egg moves ==

Should Charm and Covet even be in the Egg Moves section. Eevee learns them via lv up, why put those moves in the egg move section? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 09:06, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
:Normally Pokémon hatch with just their base moves, but Egg moves are moves that can potentially be passed down from their parents. Yes Eevee can learn Covet and Charm through level up, but they can also be passed down to offspring despite them not being starting moves.

:::They are listed if those moves only need one parent instead of both. A move is not an egg move if both parents are required to know the move for it to be passed down. Since Eevee only needs one parent to have those moves passed down, it's an egg move on top of being a level-up move.

== Fraudulent Mega Eevee Description for article in Bing Search ==

So I did a '''Bing''' Search for Mega Eevee, just to see some fan art of what it would look like. The first website/article listed is this one, however the description caption reads as follows.

''Aug 10, 2014 · Mega Eevee : Mega Eevee Y: Gender ratio. Unknown: 87.5% male, 12.5% female: Catch rate. ... An Eevee is seen as a Pokémon experimented on by …''

The description is indicating Eevee actually has at least one, version exclusive Mega Evolution. Why is this showing up, did someone put hidden code into the article that Bing is picking up?

Anyways, I thought I would bring it up so that I could get a answer, and the Admin staff could take preventative action, maybe send Bing a note to fix it. I checked the same search on Google, and it does not show the fraudulent description. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 00:42, 15 August 2014 (UTC)

== Plausible Trivia? ==

Would the following thought, better written, qualify as fan speculation, or valid trivia?

Eevee is similar the given name 'Eve'. The given name 'Eve' is 'Chava' [חַוָּה] in the original Hebrew. The root word from which 'Chava' is constructed can mean 'to give breath' or 'to give life' in Biblical Hebrew. This plausibly relates to the many pokemon into which Eevee can breath life.[[User:ABZB|ABZB]] ([[User talk:ABZB|talk]]) 21:14, 31 August 2014 (UTC)
