== Defense stat column ==

Can we add a defense stat (and possibly attack stat) column to the chart, for quick reference here? I'd do it myself, but I don't know how to automate such things. If it's a matter of manually looking up all the stats and inserting them into the chart text by hand I can do that too, but I'd want a go-ahead first. --[[User:MASLEGOMAN|MASLEGOMAN]] ([[User talk:MASLEGOMAN|talk]]) 19:22, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

F.E.A.R.

2018-07-03T05:08:04Z

MASLEGOMAN: /* How to use F.E.A.R. */

'''F.E.A.R.''' is a last-resort strategy used in competitive battling since [[Generation IV]], normally usable only once per battle. A "F.E.A.R. Pokémon" is a Pokémon compatible with a certain moveset capable of defeating a full-HP opponent at virtually any level (most notably level 100) while it itself is only at level 1 or 2, the reason for this strategy's bragging rights.

F.E.A.R. generally stands for:
*{{DL|In-battle effect item|Focus Sash}}
*{{m|Endeavor}}
*{{m|Quick Attack|(Quick) Attack}}
*{{p|Rattata}} (Rattata are not the only Pokémon that can use F.E.A.R; multiple Pokémon can fit this role.)

The original term, coined by strategists as humor, was "'''F'''***ing '''E'''vil '''A'''nnoying '''R'''odent".

The strategy (and original profanity-laden term) was originally conceived on [https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/925601-pokemon-diamond-version GameFAQs' Pokémon Diamond Message Board] in early 2007.

==How to use F.E.A.R.==
After one of the player's Pokémon faints, the F.E.A.R. Pokémon can be sent out against an opponent's Pokémon with (preferably) full HP. During the first turn, the F.E.A.R. Pokémon will use Endeavor, and the opponent will most likely use an offensive attack to try to defeat the F.E.A.R. Pokémon (assuming, of course, that the opponent isn't aware of this strategy). The F.E.A.R. Pokémon would indeed faint, if it were not holding the Focus Sash, which allows the user to hold on to 1 HP after a hit which would otherwise knock it out from max-HP. When the Pokémon uses Endeavor, the HP of the opponent's Pokémon will equal the HP of its own (which is now, assuming Focus Sash triggered, equal to 1). During the following turn, the F.E.A.R. Pokémon can use Quick Attack to wipe out the remaining 1 HP of the opponent's Pokémon. Focus Sash will not work twice, so a Pokémon can only use this strategy once.

From Generation V onward, the Ability {{a|Sturdy}} was altered to function like a Focus Sash, but can activate multiple times providing the Pokémon regains all of its HP. With this change came new notable users of F.E.A.R.; a level 2 {{p|Probopass}} can use {{m|Pain Split}} to wear down the opponent's HP whilst healing itself, while {{p|Aron}} can use a combination of Endeavor and a held {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shell Bell}} for multiple uses of Endeavor. Generation V also introduced {{p|Solosis}}, a Pokémon able to combine {{a|Magic Guard}} and Endeavor, but also set up {{m|Trick Room}} for its allies. As of [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], an Endeavor-tutored {{p|Togedemaru}} with Sturdy and a Shell Bell can perform F.E.A.R. in the same way as Aron before it, and can additionally learn {{m|Spiky Shield}}, allowing it to finish off weakened opponents that make contact.

==Countering F.E.A.R.==
While an impressive strategy, F.E.A.R. is simple to counter. The following are several ways to counter the F.E.A.R. strategy:
* Knowledge: The simplest strategy and perhaps the most effective. If the opponent knows the F.E.A.R. strategy, they won't attack as needed for it to work (a damaging move), or they will switch out for a Pokémon immune to it or easily able to counter it. Besides the other counters listed here, a player could switch out after the opponent's F.E.A.R. uses Endeavor, leaving it with 1 HP and another Pokémon to sweep the F.E.A.R. However, if the F.E.A.R.-using player predicts correctly, this problem can be solved using {{m|Pursuit}}.
* {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon: As Ghost types are immune to {{t|Normal}}- and {{type|Fighting}} attacks, Endeavor and Quick Attack are useless against them.
** It should be noted however, that a F.E.A.R. {{p|Kangaskhan}} or {{p|Taillow}}{{tt|*|Generation V on, Hidden Ability}} with {{a|Scrappy}} will still be able to use Endeavor against a Ghost-type Pokémon.
* A Pokémon with an increased priority attacks (with exception of {{m|Fake Out}} and {{m|First Impression}}): if the opponent uses an increased-priority move at the same time as the F.E.A.R. Pokémon does, the large difference in level will almost always result in the opponent's Pokémon landing the hit first, leaving the opponent with little HP, but leaving the F.E.A.R. player with one Pokémon down. However, from Generation V onward, {{m|Feint}} and {{m|Extreme Speed}} have +2 priority, and are not countered by +1 priority moves.
* If the foe acts last due to battling in {{m|Trick Room}}{{tt|*|assuming the foe is faster than the F.E.A.R. Pokémon}}, holding a {{DL|Incense|Full Incense}}, using a decreased-priority move, or doing something similar, its attack will leave the F.E.A.R. Pokémon with approximately 12 hit points after the first turn and the F.E.A.R. Pokémon will only have 1 hit point, causing an easy sweep on the second turn.
* A move that damages foes upon switching in (like {{m|Spikes}} or {{m|Stealth Rock}}) can cancel out the Focus Sash effect, thus causing the foe to be unable to withstand a one-hit KO. This only works if the F.E.A.R. Pokémon isn't released prior to that move.
** Note that Doduo, Taillow, Starly, Togekiss, and Shaymin in its Sky Forme are immune to Spikes.
* Moves, [[status condition]]s, Abilities, and weather that deal damage every turn (like {{weather|sandstorm}} or {{status|burn}}) can cancel out Focus Sash's effect. This can also work without using a turn if a Pokémon like {{p|Tyranitar}} or {{p|Abomasnow}} activates its Ability.
** Note that F.E.A.R. Phanpy, Aron, Corsola, Wormadam (Sandy and Trash Cloaks) and Swinub are immune to sandstorm (and the last one to {{weather|hail}} as well.)
* {{m|Embargo}} and {{m|Magic Room}} prevent the foe from using any item, in this case Focus Sash and Shell Bell.
** Do note that, somewhat counter-intuitively, {{m|Knock Off}} will '''NOT''' serve to KO a F.E.A.R. Pokémon if it is at 100% HP unless Embargo is in effect. The F.E.A.R. Pokémon's Focus Sash will be knocked off ''after'' it has been successfully activated, and the Pokémon will still be able to use Endeavor to reduce the foe's HP.
* {{DL|In-battle effect item|Black Sludge}}{{tt|*|in the case of Poison-type foes}}, {{DL|In-battle effect item|Leftovers}}, and a {{stat|HP}}-restoring [[Berry]] return some HP to the user's Pokémon, and more than likely, more than the opposing F.E.A.R. can deal with its increased-priority move.
* F.E.A.R.: Ironically, a way to combat a F.E.A.R. Pokémon is having it face another F.E.A.R. Pokémon (or some other low-level Pokémon). Having roughly the same HP, both F.E.A.R.s would do little damage towards each other. It isn't, however, practical or useful to carry a F.E.A.R. Pokémon just for the sake of combating another F.E.A.R., as both Pokémon are about evenly-matched.
* {{p|Shedinja}} and its {{a|Wonder Guard}} Ability will make Endeavor unable to hit.
** Note that Sucker Punch and {{m|Shadow Sneak}} can be used to KO Shedinja, but only after its probably existent Focus Sash has been activated or otherwise rendered useless.
* [[Multi-strike move]]s, such as {{m|Bullet Seed}} and {{m|Triple Kick}}, will continue hitting after the Focus Sash or Sturdy triggers, causing the strategy to fail.
* In [[Double Battle|Double]] and [[Triple Battle]]s, having multiple Pokémon use moves that will hit the F.E.A.R. Pokémon will cause it to faint, since the Focus Sash will only activate for the first attack. However, {{m|Follow Me}}, {{m|Rage Powder}}, and {{p|Greninja}}'s {{m|Mat Block}} can aid the F.E.A.R. Pokémon.
* Although Sturdy acts like a Focus Sash from Generation V onward, the Abilities {{a|Mold Breaker}}, {{a|Turboblaze}} and {{a|Teravolt}} ignore this effect, countering any attempt to use F.E.A.R. with Sturdy.
* As Endeavor makes contact, the F.E.A.R. Pokémon can be finished off when its opponent is carrying a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Rocky Helmet}} or has the Ability {{a|Rough Skin}} or {{a|Iron Barbs}}.
* Pokémon with the [[Ability]] {{a|Queenly Majesty}} or {{a|Dazzling}} are unaffected by opposing F.E.A.R. Pokémon's priority moves.
* When {{m|Psychic Terrain}} is in the effect, Pokémon that are [[grounded|on the ground]] will not be affected by priority moves.

==Catching Pokémon with F.E.A.R.==
By using F.E.A.R. while skipping the priority move, players can lower a target Pokémon's HP to 1, similar to using {{m|False Swipe}}, and more easily catch it than by battling it normally. After the wild Pokémon's HP has been lowered to 1, the player may freely begin throwing [[Poké Ball]]s and have a high chance of successfully capturing the Pokémon. A {{p|Cottonee}} may also inflict a priority paralysis (with {{a|Prankster}}) to further increase the [[catch rate]].

'''U-turn''' (Japanese: '''とんぼがえり''' ''Round-trip'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Bug}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]]. It has been [[TM89]] since Generation IV.

==Effect==
U-turn deals [[damage]] and then [[Recall|switches the user out]]. The user will not be switched out if the user is the only Pokémon in the [[party]] that is able to battle, if the target's Ability is {{a|Wimp Out}}, or if using U-turn ends the battle. If U-turn faints a foe Trainer's Pokémon, the next Pokémon sent out by the user will not be counted for additional experience and if the user is battling an NPC, the player will still have the ability to switch Pokémon in between Pokémon that have fainted. If the next Pokémon sent out by the user is holding the Amulet Coin or Luck Incense, it will be counted for that even if it is immediately switched out in between fainted Pokémon.

If the foe Pokémon uses {{m|Pursuit}} on the same turn U-turn is used, Pursuit will deal normal damage if the foe is faster, or double damage if the foe is slower than the user.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, if the Pokémon selected after the switch-out is holding a [[Choice item]] and also knows the move U-turn, they will be forced to use U-turn as their next attack despite not having made a move.

U-turn may be used to switch out of {{m|Ingrain}}, but Ingrain's effects will not be passed on. U-turn can also be used to switch out even if the user is under the effect of {{a|Arena Trap}}, {{a|Magnet Pull}}, {{a|Shadow Tag}}, {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, or {{m|Block}}. U-turn will not force a switch if the user is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Red Card}} or the target is holding an {{DL|In-battle effect item|Eject Button}}.

==Description==

{{movedescentry|{{gameabbrev4|DPPtHGSS}} {{gameabbrev5|BWB2W2}} {{gameabbrev6|XYORAS}} {{gameabbrev7|SM}}|After making its attack, the user rushes back to switch places with a party Pokémon in waiting.}}

==In other generations==

}}

==Trivia==
* In Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, despite being spelled with a lowercase "t" (as "U-turn") on the status screen and as [[TM89]], when used in battle it is displayed as "U-'''T'''urn".
* U-turn may be {{type|Bug}} because its Japanese name contains とんぼ (tonbo), which means dragonfly.
**This is somewhat supported by the fact that {{p|Yanma}} and {{p|Yanmega}}, both based on dragonflies, can learn the move by levelling up.
