Protect

Type Power Accuracy PP Priority Damage Target
Normal - - 10 +3 - User

Protects the user from most moves during the turn. If the user successfully used Detect, Endure, or Protect on the previous turn, Protect only has a 50% chance to work successfully. If the Protect user moves last in a turn, Protect fails.

Feint ends Protect's protection and damages the Protect user. Lock-On, Mind Reader, and No Guard give moves (100 minus accuracy)% chance to hit through Protect. OHKO moves (Horn Drill, Guillotine, Fissure, and Sheer Cold) are always blocked by Protect, even with Lock-On, Mind Reader, or No Guard.

In Diamond and Pearl, but not in Platinum, Thunder has a 30% chance to hit through Protect in the rain, as does Blizzard in hail.

Protect does not protect the user from:

  • Acupressure
  • Curse (used by a Ghost-type)
  • Doom Desire
  • Future Sight
  • Imprison
  • Perish Song
  • Psych Up
  • Role Play
  • Transform
