Night Shade (move): Difference between revisions

gameimagewidth=256 |

'''Night Shade''' (Japanese: '''ナイトヘッド''' ''Night Head'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Ghost}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation II]], it was the [[signature move]] of the {{p|Gastly}} evolution line.

Night Shade inflicts damage equal to the user's level. Although Night Shade deals Ghost-type damage, its type does not alter the amount of damage it inflicts. Night Shade hits both {{type|Normal}} Pokémon and {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, both of which have immunities to Ghost-type moves during Generation I.

===Generation II and on===

After Generation I, the type mechanics were altered so that Night Shade and all other Ghost-type moves hit Psychic-type Pokémon, leaving only Normal-type Pokémon immune to Night Shade. Night Shade will still inflict damage equal to the user's level.
