Roar (Japanese: ほえる Roar) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It has been TM05 since Generation II.

Effect

Generation I

If Roar is used in a wild Pokémon battle by a Pokémon on either side, the battle will automatically end. In a Trainer battle, Roar has no effect. Roar has 100% accuracy and normal priority.

Generation II

When in a Trainer battle, Roar will now force the target to switch with a randomly chosen Pokémon from its Trainer's party. If there is no Pokémon for the target to switch with, Roar will fail. Roar now has a priority of -1. If Roar is used before the opponent can make its move, Roar will fail.

Generation III to IV

Roar will fail when used against Pokémon with the Abilities Soundproof and Suction Cups or rooted by Ingrain. It no longer fails if it is not used last.

If the user's level is less than the target's, there is now a chance that Roar will fail. The chance of failure starts at approximately 25%, but drops as the user's level increases. Given the terms T for the target's level, U for the user's level, and X for a random integer from 0 to 255, a term R can be calculated where R = FLOOR( ( T + U ) * X / 256 ) + 1. If R is less than or equal to T/4, Roar fails. The chance of Roar failing can generally be approximated by ( T / 4 + 1 ) / ( T + U ); the true chance of failing may diverge moderately from that approximation for low values of T and U.

Roar now has a priority of -6.

Generation V

In wild Pokémon battles, Roar will now always fail if the user's level is less than the target's. In Trainer battles, Roar will now succeed if it hits, regardless of either Pokémon's level.

Roar is now reflected by Magic Coat and Magic Bounce.

Generation VI

Roar now bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the opponent is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly. Roar can now hit a target even if it has used Protect, Detect, or Spiky Shield, but will fail if the target is protected by Crafty Shield.

In a wild Horde Encounter, if a wild Pokémon uses Roar, it will force the target to switch with a Pokémon from its Trainer's party, regardless of the target's level. If the Trainer's Pokémon uses Roar, however, it will fail.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

Roar blows away the opponent in front in a straight line, contrary to the direction it is facing. If it hits a wall, it takes 5 damage. If it hits another Pokémon, both Pokémon take 5 damage. If it falls to a space where it cannot stand, such as a sky or water tile, it will be randomly teleported elsewhere in the dungeon.
