Roar (Japanese: ほえる Roar) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.
Effect
Generation I
Roar can be used to automatically end wild Pokémon battles. It has normal priority, unlike in later generations. However, it has no effect in a Trainer battle.
Generation II
Now, when in battle against a Trainer, Roar will force a switch with a randomly chosen Pokémon from the Trainer's party. If there isn't another Pokémon, Roar will fail. It also has decreased priority. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as in Generation I.
Generation III and IV
Roar will fail when used against Pokémon with the abilities Soundproof and Suction Cups or under the effects of Ingrain. Otherwise, it is exactly the same as Generation II.
Generation V
Roar no longer works on same and higher level targets in wild Pokémon battles, but can still force higher leveled opponents to switch in trainer battles, and can now be reflected with Magic Coat and Magic Bounce.
