Reflect (Japanese: リフレクター Reflector) is a non-damaging Psychic-type move introduced in Generation I. It is a physical counterpart to Light Screen. It was TM33 in Generation I before losing its status in Generation II. It returned to being TM33 from Generation III to Generation VII and in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and was TM09 in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. In Generation VIII, it is TM18.

Effect

Generation I

Reflect doubles the user's Defense when the opponent damages the user with a physical move.

Reflect will fail if the user is already under its effect. The effect of Reflect is ignored by self-inflicted confusion damage and critical hits. If Reflect causes the user's defense to reach 1024 or higher at any time during battle calculations, it will be reduced mod 1024.

The effects of Reflect can be lifted by Haze.

If the opponent has Reflect, this lowers the user's confusion damage.

Generation II

Reflect now remains in effect for five turns and will double the Defense of any Pokémon on the user's side of the field instead.

Haze can no longer lift the effects of Reflect.

Confusion damage is now affected by the user's Reflect and not the opponent's.

Generation III

Instead of doubling the Defense of affected Pokémon, Reflect now technically halves the damage done to them by physical moves; it still does not reduce damage done by moves that deal direct damage.

If multiple Pokémon are present on the user's side of the field, all of them are protected by Reflect, but physical damage is only reduced by a third rather than half.

Reflect is removed from a Pokémon's side of the field if an opponent uses Brick Break or Shadow Shed on it (even if it is immune to Brick Break due to being Ghost-type), unless it is protected from the move or the move misses.

Reflect no longer affects confusion damage.

Reflect can be used as the second move of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining 1 bonus appeal point if Calm Mind was used in the previous turn.

Generation IV

Reflect is removed from a Pokémon's side of the field if any Pokémon (including an ally) uses Brick Break or Defog on it (even if it is immune to Brick Break due to being Ghost-type), unless it is protected from the move or the move misses.

If Light Clay is held when Reflect is used, it will extend the duration of Reflect from 5 to 8 turns.

Generation V onward

Reflect is removed from a Pokémon's side of the field if it is hit by Brick Break, Defog, or Psychic Fangs, or if a Pokémon with Screen Cleaner is sent out. Reflect is not removed if the target is immune to the move (e.g. a Ghost-type Pokémon targeted by Brick Break). Pokémon with the Ability Infiltrator ignore the effects of Reflect when attacking.

Unlike Generations III and IV, Reflect now always reduces damage by (roughly) a third rather than a half (specifically, with a multiplier of 2703/4096 in Generation V, or 2732/4096 in Generation VI onward) in Double Battles and Triple Battles, regardless of how many Pokémon on a given side are being protected by it. In Generation VII, Battle Royals also use this multiplier.

If powered up by a Psychium Z into Z-Reflect, the user's Defense stat rises by one stage.

Using Baddy Bad will set up Reflect on the user's side of the field.

Trivia

Reflect ending in Battle Revolution.

• Since Reflect regained its status as TM move in Generation III onwards, several Generation I Pokémon are unable to learn Reflect anymore via TM33, unlike in Generation I games. This makes Reflect a TM move with the highest number of Pokémon compatibility lost between any generations.
• Reflect displays animation when it ends on its own in Pokémon Battle Revolution.
• In Generation II games, when performing a modified version of the Celebi Egg glitch, if the both parents have Reflect in their fourth attack slot, the Pokémon produced will be holding a Teru-sama (in Gold and Silver Versions) or a GS Ball (in Crystal Version). If the Teru-sama is traded to Crystal, it becomes a GS Ball. When viewed in Pokémon Stadium 2, the Teru-sama shows up as a GS Ball.
