Light Screen (Japanese: ひかりのかべ Light Wall) is a non-damaging Psychic-type move introduced in Generation I. It is the special counterpart to Reflect. It has been TM16 since Generation III.

Effect

Generation I

Light Screen doubles the user's Special when the opponent damages the user with a special move.

Light Screen will fail if the user is already under its effect. The effect of Light Screen is ignored by critical hits. If Light Screen causes the user's special to reach 1024 or higher at any time during battle calculations, it will be reduced mod 1024.

Generation II

Light Screen now remains in effect for 5 turns and will double the user's Special Defense instead.

Generation III

Instead of doubling the Special Defense of the user, Light Screen now technically halves the damage done to it by special moves; it still does not reduce damage done by moves that deal direct damage.

Light Screen will disappear immediately if the opponent uses Brick Break (or Shadow Shed in Pokémon XD).

In a Double Battle, both the user and its ally are protected by Light Screen, but special damage is only reduced by a third rather than half.

Generation IV

Light Screen will disappear immediately if the opponent uses Defog as well.

If Light Clay is held when Light Screen is used, it will extend the duration of Light Screen from 5 to 8 turns.

Generation V onward

Pokémon with the Ability Infiltrator will ignore the effects of Light Screen when attacking.

If powered up by a Psychium Z into Z-Light Screen, the user's Special Defense stat raises one stage.
