On Smogon's Movedex: Generation III Generation IV Generation V Generation VI Generation VII Generation VIII

Helping Hand (Japanese: てだすけ Help) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation III. It was TM03 in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, and is TM41 in Generation VIII.

Effect

Generation III

Helping Hand is an increased priority move that will increase the damage done by the user's ally this turn by 50%.

It will fail if there is no adjacent ally, or if the ally has already acted this turn.

It can still affect an ally behind a substitute or in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move like Fly or Dig.

Helping Hand targets the user.

Generation IV onward

Helping Hand now targets an adjacent ally, and will raise its move's power by 50% this turn (resulting in virtually the same effect).

Helping Hand will fail in a Single Battle.

Helping Hand now boosts confusion damage.

Generation V onward

Helping Hand now targets an adjacent ally. It no longer boosts confusion damage.

Helping Hand will fail when used by the player's Pokémon in a Horde Encounter. In a Battle Royal, Helping Hand can target any opponent, and successfully increase that opponent's move power.

If Helping Hand is used multiple times in a turn, all targeting the same Pokémon, the boosts are cumulative. The move power will increase by 125% if there are two Helping Hands, or 237.5% if there are three.

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