Detect (move): Difference between revisions

* In Generation II, after the appearance of the '''"[Pokémon's name] PROTECTING itself!"''' message, another message saying that the opponent's Pokémon missed the move was transmitted. The second message was removed in Generation III, likely to avoid redundancy.

* The description for this move's capability isn't entirely true. The only moves it will ''never'' block are Shadow Force and Feint.

*Due to the fact that {{m|Protect}} has the exact same effect, a higher PP and that all Pokémon capable of learning Detect can learn Protect, Detect is [[Imprison (move)|alm]][[Disable (move)|ost]] completely redundant compared to Protect. However, the decay of Detect is less severe than that of Protect, which somewhat alleviates the problem.
