Reflect (Japanese: リフレクター Reflector) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I.
Effect
Generation I
Reflect doubles the user's Defense when the opponent damages the user with a physical move.
Reflect will fail if the user is already under its effect. The effect of Reflect is ignored by self-inflicted confusion damage and critical hits. If Reflect causes the user's defense to reach 1024 or higher at any time during battle calculations, it will be reduced mod 1024.
Generation II
Reflect will be in effect for 5 turns and will halve damage taken from physical moves.
Generation III
Same as above, but Reflect will disappear after 5 turns or when the opponent uses Brick Break or Shadow Shed in Pokémon XD.
Generation IV
Same as above, but if Light Clay is held when Reflect is used, it will extend the duration of Reflect from 5 to 8 turns.

Magcargo using Reflect.
An invisible wall is put in front of the Pokémon, an almost indestructible defense move that when it's surpassed its breaks in little pieces like a glass breaking. Basically it cut an attack damage in half, the move also lasts several turns even if the Pokémon is changed.
Pokémon
Magcargo. The move is created when its eyes turns light blue and its wall is flexible.
- Used by Flannery's Magcargo in Going, Going, Yawn! in a official battle against Ash Ketchum, after its defeat the wall was still working with Slugma until Ash's Pikachu broke it with Quick Attack.
