'''Flatter''' (Japanese: '''おだてる''' ''Flatter'') is a non-damaging {{type2|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It can be seen as a Dark-type version of {{m|Swagger}}, but it is not as potent.
}}
'''Flatter''' (Japanese: '''おだてる''' ''Flatter'') is a non-damaging {{type|Dark}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]]. It is similar to {{m|Swagger}}.


==Effect==
==Effect==
Flatter raises the target's {{stat|Special Attack}} by one stage and then confuses it. Should the target be already confused, or protected by {{m|Safeguard}}, its Special Attack will still be raised. Pokémon with the ability {{a|Own Tempo}} are immune to both effects.
===Generation III===
Flatter raises the target's {{stat|Special Attack}} stat by one stage and {{status|confusion|confuses}} it. Even if the target is already confused, or cannot become confused due to {{m|Safeguard}} or {{a|Own Tempo}}, its Special Attack will still be raised.
Even if the target's Special Attack is already at +6 stages, it will still become confused. Even if the target has {{a|Contrary}} and its Special Attack is already at -6 stages, it will still become confused.
 
===Generation IV to VI===
Flatter can be used as the second move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining 2 bonus appeal points if {{m|Charm}} was used in the previous turn.
 
===Generation VII===
If powered up by a [[Darkinium Z]] into Z-Flatter, the user's {{stat|Special Defense}} stat is raised by one stage.
