In other games

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, and Explorers of Time, Darkness and Sky, Facade is a move with 12 base power, 84% accuracy, and 12 PP. The user attacks enemy in the front, with the move's power doubled if the user has a burn or is poisoned (as paralysis always prevents using moves).

In Gates to Infinity onwards, Facade powers up if the user is affected by any bad status condition that does not prevent it from using moves. In Super Mystery Dungeon, it also ignores the Attack drop from the Burned status condition.
