Electric Terrain (Japanese: エレキフィールド Elec Field) is a non-damaging Electric-type move introduced in Generation VI.
Effect
Generation VI
Electric Terrain creates terrain that envelops the field and replaces the background environment and any other terrain that is already in effect. The terrain fades after five turns.
This terrain has the following effects on Pokémon that are on the ground and not in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move.
- It prevents affected Pokémon from being afflicted by sleep or Yawn.
- If an affected Pokémon is already drowsy due to Yawn, it is prevented from falling asleep.
- Rest will fail if used by an affected Pokémon.
- It boosts the power of Electric-type moves used by affected Pokémon by 50% (regardless of whether the target of the move is affected by Electric Terrain).
If Electric Terrain is in effect, Nature Power becomes Thunderbolt, Secret Power uses the animation of Thunder Shock and may cause paralysis, and Camouflage causes the user to become Electric-type. Natural objects disappear and cannot be destroyed while Electric Terrain is in effect.
Generation VII
Pokémon with the Ability Surge Surfer have their Speed stat doubled when under the effects of Electric Terrain.
When a Pokémon with the Ability Electric Surge enters battle, Electric Terrain is automatically created.
If powered up by an Electrium Z into Z-Electric Terrain, the user's Speed stat raises one stage.
