Spikes (Japanese: まきびし Caltrop) is a non-damaging Ground-type move introduced in Generation II. Prior to Pokémon Crystal, it was the signature move of the Pineco evolutionary line.
Effect
Generation II
Spikes sets an entry hazard around the enemy team's field. Pokémon who switch into the spike-ridden field take 12.5% of their maximum HP in damage. Flying-type Pokémon are immune to this damage. The move Rapid Spin removes Spikes around the user.
Generation III
Spikes can now be set up to three times, each increasing the damage done to the opponent upon switching in. One layer of Spikes will damage the opponent Pokémon by 12.5% of its maximum HP, two layers will deal 18.75%, and three layers will deal 25%. Any Pokémon with Levitate will prevent the damage.
Generation IV
The move Defog will remove Spikes around its target. Any Pokémon under the effect of Magnet Rise or Magic Guard Ability are unaffected to the damage. However, Flying and Levitating Pokémon are affected under Gravity, while holding Iron Ball, or if Baton Passed an Ingrain.
Generation V
Spikes can now be reflected with Magic Coat.
Mystery Dungeon
Spikes creates a Spiked Tile underneath the user. Any Pokémon that steps on a Spiked Tile will lose 20 HP each. However, Spiked Tile cannot be laid under one-tile ways and the entrance of a room.
