'''Flash''' (Japanese: '''フラッシュ''' ''Flash'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It was [[HM05]] from Generations {{gen|I}} to {{gen|III}} and [[TM70]] from Generations {{gen|IV}} to {{gen|VI}}.

====Generations I to III====

Flash decreases the target's {{stat|accuracy}} stat by one stage.

The accuracy of Flash is 70% in these generations.

====Generations IV to VII====

====Generations III to V====

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] and {{game|Platinum}}, it will light up the entire screen like it did in Generation I.

These are the caves that may be zoomed out by the move Flash.
