In the anime, fainting is referred to as being '''unable to battle''' (Japanese: '''戦闘不能''' ''sentō funō''). A Pokémon is shown to be unable to battle when its eyes are "swirly" - presumably to emulate dizziness. During a [[Pokémon League]] match, once a Pokémon is deemed unable to battle by an official League judge, it must be [[recall]]ed and cannot be used again; however, this only true in the [[Pokémon anime]] and some of the {{pkmn|manga}}, not the {{pkmn|games}}. | In the anime, fainting is referred to as being '''unable to battle''' (Japanese: '''戦闘不能''' ''sentō funō'').

Since not all Pokémon have eyes, they often have different ways of displaying that they have fainted, such as {{p|Staryu}}'s core flashing. | Since not all Pokémon have eyes, they often have different ways of displaying that they have fainted, such as {{p|Staryu}}'s core flashing. | ||
