Whirlpool (Japanese: うずしお Whirl Tide) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation II. It was the first HM move to lose its HM status, and was later followed by Flash and Dive.
Effect
Generation II
In battle
Whirlpool inflicts damage and traps the target in a whirlpool for 2-5 turns, damaging them slightly at the end of each turn.
Outside of battle
Whirlpool clears whirlpools in the field.
Generation III and on
Whirlpool inflicts damage and traps the target in a whirlpool for 2-5 turns, damaging them slightly at the end of each turn.
If a wild Pokémon uses Whirlpool on the player's Pokémon, the player may escape if his or her Pokémon has the Run Away ability. However, Run Away does not allow the player to switch the Pokémon out.
Generation IV
If the user of Whirlpool is holding a Grip Claw, the duration of Whirlpool is always 5 turns.

Trivia
- Although it is only one of three moves to lose HM status, and in fact the first one, it is also the only former HM to regain that status.
- This makes it the only HM move teachable by two separate HMs: HM06 in Generation II, and HM05 in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
