Swift Swim (Japanese: すいすい Swim Swim) is an ability introduced in Generation III that doubles speed in rain.

In Mystery Dungeon, whenever the Pokémon uses a special move while it is raining, the move is used twice. No additional PP is used during the second usage. If the Pokémon has a speed bonus, only the first move will gain the benefit of Swift Swim. If the special move is part of a linked move, all moves in the link are performed before they are done the second time.

Twenty-five Pokémon have this ability, all of them Template:Type2. See also Chlorophyll.
