Mind Blown (Japanese: ビックリヘッド Surprised Head) is a damage-dealing Fire-type move introduced in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. It is the signature move of Blacephalon.

Effect

Mind Blown inflicts damage, and the user loses half of its maximum HP rounded up, unless the user has Magic Guard. Mind Blown cannot be used when a Pokémon with the Ability Damp is on the field.

Contrary to other moves with recoil damage, if both Pokémon faint in the same turn as the result of using Mind Blown, the user of this move loses.
