Reflect (Japanese: リフレクター Reflector) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.
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.
Generation II
Reflect will be in effect for 5 turns and will halve damage taken from physical moves.
Generation III
Same as above, but Reflect will disappear after 5 turns or when the opponent uses Brick Break or Shadow Shed in Pokémon XD.
In a double battle, Reflect protects both allied Pokémon, but only reduces physical damage by a third rather than by half.
Generation IV
Same as above, but if Light Clay is held when Reflect is used, it will extend the duration of Reflect from 5 to 8 turns.

Trivia
- In Generation II games, when performing a modified version of the Celebi egg trick, if the both parents have Reflect in their fourth attack slot, the Pokémon produced will be holding a Teru-sama (in Pokémon Gold and Silver) or a GS Ball (in Pokémon Crystal). If the Teru-sama is traded to Pokémon Crystal, it becomes a GS Ball. When viewed in Stadium 2, the Teru-sama shows up as a GS Ball.
