Template:Project MoveDex autoarticle notice
Effect
Generation I
Absorb does damage, and up to 50% of the damage done to the opponent is restored to the user. However, if this attack does 1 point of damage, 1 HP will be restored to the user.
If Absorb breaks a substitute, no HP will be restored to the user. If HP is restored to the user when its current HP is greater than its maximum HP, its current HP will be set equal to its maximum HP.
In Stadium, Absorb will always miss if the opponent has a substitute.
