 ==Effect==
 ===In battle===
+The user dives underwater and becomes protected against most moves during the first turn, known as a [[semi-invulnerable turn]], and then the user deals damage in the second turn.
+{{m|Surf}} and {{m|Whirlpool}} are able to hit a submerged Pokémon, dealing twice the regular damage in all generations except in [[Generation IV]], where the move's power is doubled instead (resulting in virtually the same effect).
+The user can also be hit underwater if it was previously targeted by {{m|Lock-On}} or {{m|Mind Reader}}, or if either the attacker or the submerged Pokémon has {{a|No Guard}}.
+{{weather|Sandstorm}}, {{weather|hail}}, and {{m|Shadow Sky}} will not cause damage during the semi-invulnerable turn.
+If the user is holding a [[Power Herb]], this item is consumed and Dive will be executed in one turn.
+If a {{p|Cramorant}} with {{a|Gulp Missile}} uses Dive (or {{m|Surf}}), it catches prey and {{form|Chamorant|changes forms}}, unless it already caught prey or is [[Dynamax]]ed.
 ====Generation III====
-On the first turn, the user will dive down for one turn and become [[Semi-invulnerable turn|invulnerable to most attacks]], with the exception of {{m|Surf}} and {{m|Whirlpool}}, which will do twice the damage to the submerged Pokémon. The user can also be hit underwater if it was previously targeted by {{m|Lock-On}} or {{m|Mind Reader}}. {{weather|Sandstorm}}, {{weather|hail}}, and {{m|Shadow Sky}} will not cause damage during the semi-invulnerable turn.
+Dive's base power is 60.
 Pokémon can be {{pkmn2|caught}} during the semi-invulnerable stage of Dive.
-Dive's base power is 60.
 Dive can be used as the first move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing {{m|Surf}} 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 2 bonus appeal points if {{m|Rain Dance}} or {{m|Surf}} was used in the previous turn.
-====Generation IV====
+====Generation IV onwards====
 Dive's base power was [[List of modified moves|raised]] to 80.
 Pokémon can no longer be {{pkmn2|caught}} during the semi-invulnerable stage of Dive.
-If a [[Power Herb]] is held by the user, Dive can be executed in one turn.
+===Outside of battle===
+Dive allows the player to go [[underwater]] in dark patches of water. This requires the player to be travelling on water using {{m|Surf}}. Conversely, if the player is already diving underwater, then Dive allows them to go back to the surface in patches illuminated by light from above.
-The user may now be hit while underwater if it is attacked by a Pokémon with {{a|No Guard}}, or if the user has No Guard themselves. If Surf or Whirlpool hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of Dive, the move's power will be doubled instead of the damage dealt (resulting in virtually the same effect).
-====Generation V onwards====
+Dive is usable either from the [[party]], or by pressing A while being in a place where this move is usable (either when surfing in the dark patch or when diving under the light from above).
-If Surf or Whirlpool hit a Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turn of Dive, the damage dealt will be doubled instead of the move's power (resulting in virtually the same effect).
-Dive triggers {{a|Gulp Missile}}.
+The only [[regions]] in which these spots (and the HM itself) have been seen are [[Hoenn]] and [[Unova]]. Thus, it is only an HM in Generations {{gen|III}}, {{gen|V}}, and {{gen|VI}}.
-===Outside of battle===
-Dive allows players to go [[underwater]] in dark patches of water while they are {{m|surf}}ing. The only [[regions]] in which these spots (and the HM itself) have been seen are [[Hoenn]] and [[Unova]]. Thus, it is only an HM in Generations {{gen|III}}, {{gen|V}}, and {{gen|VI}}.
 In {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the {{badge|Mind}} is required to use Dive outside of battle.
