Sketch (Japanese: スケッチ Sketch) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation II. It is the signature move of Smeargle. Smeargle can learn it every ten levels, and by using a move re-learner.

Effect

If used by a transformed Pokémon, Sketch will fail.

Generation II

Sketch allows the user to copy the opponent's last move permanently, therefore replacing Sketch. Sketch cannot be used to copy Selfdestruct, Explosion, Struggle, or Metronome.

Generation III

The effects of Sketch continue into this generation; it can now be used to copy Selfdestruct and Explosion when used in a battle with a Pokémon with the Damp ability. It can be used to copy "calling" moves, such as Metronome, if the move fails to activate due to effects such as Sleep. This did not work in Generation II. Sketch cannot copy Transform

Generation IV

Same as Generation III. Sketch cannot be used to copy Chatter and Struggle.
