Leech Seed (Japanese: やどりぎのタネ Mistletoe Seed) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Generation I

Leech Seed plants a seed on the target. At the end of each turn that the target is under the effect of Leech Seed, 1/16 of the target's HP will be drained, and the same amount of HP will be restored to your active Pokémon (even if it was not the Pokémon that originally used the attack). Recurrent Leech Seed draining will not occur if the seeded Pokémon defeats the target. Unlike other types of damage, the recurrent damage done by Leech Seed can exceed the target's current HP.

If the target has less than 16 HP, Leech Seed will drain 1 HP per turn. Leech Seed draining will occur even if the seeded Pokémon knocks itself out with crash damage, recoil damage, or self-inflicted confusion damage, or by making a Substitute before the end of its turn. Draining from Leech Seed is done after continuing partial trapping damage and recurrent poison or burn damage. Leech Seed can be removed by Haze or switching. If the target is seeded during a round that it switches in, it will take recurrent damage during that round, but only if its speed is less than or equal to the user's speed.

If the target is also under the effect of Toxic, Leech Seed will increase the N value of of Toxic by 1 per turn. If the current HP of the recipient of Leech Seed's HP-restoring effect is greater than its maximum HP, its current HP will be set equal to its maximum HP.

Leech Seed will not work against Template:Type2s.

In Stadium, Leech Seed will not work against a target with a substitute.

Generation II

1/8 of the target's HP is drained instead. Rapid Spin will release a Pokémon from the effects of Leech Seed. Also, Leech Seed's effects on the move "Toxic" are no longer present.

Generation III

In a double battle, Leech Seed will only heal the Pokémon in the position that used Leech Seed. If the Trainer only has two Pokémon left, and the Pokémon that was being healed by Leech Seed is KO'd, the effect of Leech Seed simply disappears rather than transferring over to the remaining Pokémon.

Generation IV

If the user is holding the item Big Root, Leech Seed will increase the user's HP by 30% more than it normally would. Big Root does not increase damage dealt. All other effects remain the same.

Trivia

  • Though Leech Seed cannot affect Template:Type2 Pokémon in the games, Grass-type Pokémon have been affected in the anime.
  • Leech Seed is originally referred to as "Mistletoe Seed" in Japanese because mistletoe is a well-known parasitic plant that leeches energy and nutrients from its host.
  • Turtwig's evolutionary line is the only one that learns Leech Seed by level up in all forms.
  • Although Leech Seed is singular, the games depict three seeds being planted. In the anime usually just one seed is planted, but sometimes two are. In the manga only one seed is planted when the attack is used.
