Attract (Japanese: メロメロ Mad Love) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It was TM45 from Generation II to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon and in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and TM31 in Pokémon Sword and Shield.

Effect

	This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: If a Pokémon is infatuated when it is holding a Mental Herb while it is also under protection of Aroma Veil, will it still consume this item? You can discuss this on the talk page.

The target becomes infatuated with the user if they have opposite genders. Attract works regardless of type immunity. Unlike most status moves, Attract is able to bypass a substitute.

Attract has no effect if the user and target have the same gender, or if either of them is a gender-unknown Pokémon (such as Magnemite). It also fails when used on a Pokémon that is already infatuated.

Pokémon with the Ability Oblivious or under the protection of Aroma Veil are immune to the effects of Attract. If a Pokémon is infatuated by Attract while holding a Mental Herb or an Eggant Berry, the item will be consumed and the infatuation will end. Even if the Pokémon has Oblivious, the item will still be consumed.

If the target Pokémon becomes infatuated while holding a Destiny Knot, the user will also become infatuated with the target.

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Attract, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

Attract inflicts the Infatuated status condition on the target. Gender is a gameplay mechanic only in Explorers and Adventure Squad series; in other games, infatuation works on all Pokémon. Infatuation lasts for 5-6^RBTDS / 6 turns^GtISMD and prevents attacks 100%^RBTDS / 50%^GtISMD of the time. Prior to Gates to Infinity, Infatuation prevented all movement or item use as well.
