Effect

G-Max Snooze inflicts damage and has a 50% chance of making the target drowsy, causing it to fall asleep the next turn, unless it switches out or already has a non-volatile status condition. This additional effect is not considered one for purposes of Serene Grace or Sheer Force.

Its power and whether it is a special or physical move depends on the move it is based on.
