Water Sport (Japanese: みずあそび Water Game) is a non-damaging Water-type move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

This move effect may be in need of research.
Reason:
  • Can both Mud Sport and Water Sport simultaneously affect the same Pokémon?
  • If this move is used twice in the same battle, does it fail the second time but still spends PP? (Presumably you can't use this move multiple times to reduce the base power of Fire moves even more, right?)
  • How does this interact with Technician?
    You can discuss this on the talk page.

Water Sport reduces the base power of Fire-type moves on both sides in battle.

Generations III and IV

Water Sport reduces their base power by 50%. The effects last until the user switches out.

Water Sport can be used as the first move of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing Mud Sport, Refresh, and Water Gun to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn. It can also be used to finish a combination, with the user gaining 4 bonus appeal points if Mud Sport or Rain Dance was used in the previous turn.

Generation V

Water Sport now reduces their base power by 67% (approximated as a factor of 1352/4096).

Generations VI and VII

Water Sport is now active for five turns, even if the user switches out.

Water Sport can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, with the user gaining an extra three appeal points if Rain Dance was used in the prior turn.

If powered up by a Waterium Z into Z-Water Sport, the user's Special Defense stat rises one stage.

Generation VIII onwards

Water Sport cannot be selected in a battle.

Trivia

  • In Generation III, the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it targets the field as a whole (thus it ignores accuracy and evasion checks).
  • This move originated as a TCG attack.
