[[File:Juniper Accelgor Substitute.png|thumb|[[Professor Juniper]]'s {{p|Accelgor}} launching a substitute]] | |||
The Pokémon that uses {{m|Substitute}} uses up ¼ of its total HP (rounded down) to make a substitute which will absorb hits until it "breaks" (damage the substitute has taken is greater than the HP used to make it). From [[Generation II]] onward, substitutes block all status ailments and will immediately break if a one-hit knockout attack connects with them. In [[Generation I]], however, a substitute only blocks primary status ailments; attacks like {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Spore}} completely circumvent the substitute. Substitutes can be transferred by {{m|Baton Pass}}. | The Pokémon that uses {{m|Substitute}} uses up ¼ of its total HP (rounded down) to make a substitute which will absorb hits until it "breaks" (damage the substitute has taken is greater than the HP used to make it).
