Perish Song is a [[sound-based move]].


Perish Song bypasses {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit. Perish Song affects Pokémon even if they are behind a {{m|substitute}} or [[protection|protected]] (even if protected by {{m|Crafty Shield}}). Since Perish Song causes a Pokémon to faint without inflicting [[damage]], it is unaffected by effects such as [[Focus Sash]], {{a|Magic Guard}}, and {{a|Sturdy}}.

If a Pokémon in switched out, its perish count is removed. However, if a Pokémon switches out with {{m|Baton Pass}}, its perish count is transferred to the Pokémon switched in (even if it has the Ability {{a|Soundproof}}). In [[Rotation Battle]]s, if the Pokémon is rotated out, the perish count remains but does not decrease until that Pokémon is rotated back in.
