Reversal (Japanese: きしかいせい Reversal) is a damage-dealing Fighting-type move introduced in Generation II.

Effect

Generation II

Reversal inflicts damage. Its power is higher when the user's HP is lower.

HP% Power
HP ≥ 68.75% 20
35.42% ≤ HP < 68.75% 40
20.83% ≤ HP < 35.42% 80
10.42% ≤ HP < 20.83% 100
4.17% ≤ HP < 10.42% 150
HP < 4.17% 200


Reversal cannot cause a critical hit, and its damage is not varied by a random number during damage calculation.

Generation III onward

Reversal can now cause a critical hit, and its damage is now varied by a random number during damage calculation.

Reversal can be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining an extra two appeal points if the move Endure was used in the prior turn. It is also part of a Contest Spectacular combination and will give an extra three appeal points if the move Endure was used in the prior turn.
