Rock Head prevents [[recoil]] damage from moves (except {{m|Struggle}}), but not from use of a [[Life Orb]], [[Jaboca Berry]], or [[Rowap Berry]]. Crash damage is still received if {{m|Jump Kick}} or {{m|High Jump Kick}} misses.
Rock Head prevents [[recoil]] damage from moves (except {{m|Struggle}}, {{m|Shadow Rush}}, and {{m|Shadow End}}).


If Rock Head is lost in a turn due to using a recoil-inducing contact move on a Pokémon with {{a|Mummy}}, the HP loss from recoil will occur that turn.
If a Pokémon with Rock Head uses a [[contact]] move on a Pokémon with {{a|Mummy}}, so that it gains Mummy after inflicting damage, it does take recoil damage from that attack.


In [[Pokémon Colosseum]], Pokémon with this Ability still receive recoil damage from {{m|Shadow Rush}}. In [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Pokémon with this Ability still receive recoil damage from {{m|Shadow End}}.
Rock Head does not affect other kinds of damage, such as [[crash damage]], damage from a [[Life Orb]], or damage from a {{b|Jaboca}} or [[Rowap Berry]].
