Belly Drum (Japanese: はらだいこ Belly Drum) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II.

Effect

Belly Drum deducts half of the user's maximum HP (rounded down) from its current HP and, in return, it maximizes the user's Attack stat by raising it up to +6 stages, even if the user's temporary Attack bonus stages were below 0 prior to using Belly Drum. Belly Drum fails if the user's current HP is less than half its maximum, or if the user's Attack is already at +6.

In the Mystery Dungeon series, Belly Drum has the same Attack-maximizing effect but empties the user's Belly instead of reducing the user's HP.

Description

Trivia

  • Belly Drum is the only move that is capable of raising a stat more than 3 levels, not counting Psych Up, Power Swap, Guard Swap, and Heart Swap.
  • While Shell Smash causes a net total of eight stat changes, Belly Drum can cause more stat changes if the user has experienced at least a -3 stat change to its Attack stat, reaching twelve stat changes if the user has a -6 Attack stat change.
  • Due to how both this move and Darmanitan's Zen Mode Ability work, Belly Drum can force Darmanitan to change its form.
