Attract (Japanese: メロメロ Mad Love) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It is TM45 from Generation II onwards.

Effect

If the target is the opposite gender of the Pokémon who launched the move, the target becomes infatuated. If the move is used on a Pokémon that is the same gender as the user, it will fail. It will also fail if used by or on a genderless Pokémon. If the foe Pokémon holds a Destiny Knot and then becomes infatuated, the user will fall under the same effect. Unlike most status moves, this move will affect a target with a substitute.

Pokémon with the Ability Oblivious or under the protection of Aroma Veil are immune to the effects of Attract.

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Attract, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Red and Blue Rescue Team and Super Mystery Dungeon, all Pokémon are genderless, so Attract can infatuate any opponent. Genders are present as a game mechanic between Explorers of Time and Darkness and Gates to Infinity, so Attract will only work against the opposite gender in those games. Unlike in the main games, infatuation can linger on an opponent even after the user has been defeated.

Between Red and Blue Rescue Team and Gates to Infinity, infatuation always prevents the affected Pokémon from doing anything for several turns, similar to sleep. In Super Mystery Dungeon, it has a chance of preventing attacks every turn, functioning like it does in the main games.
