Present (Japanese: プレゼント Present) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. It is the signature move of Delibird.
Effect
Generation II
Present has two different effects. Present can either deal damage against the target or heal the target by 80 HP. If Present deals damage, then the base power of Present is chosen at random from 40, 80, or 120.

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: What part of the code causes the glitch? |
In Pokémon Gold and Silver, a glitch causes the level, Attack, and Defense variables of the damage formula to be replaced. The Attack will be replaced with 10, while the level will be based on the index number of the defending Pokémon's type, and the Defense will be based on the index number of the attacking Pokémon's type (if a Pokémon has two types, its secondary type will be used). Also, Present only inflicts a quarter of the normal damage against Rock-type and Steel-type Pokémon.
|
In Pokémon Crystal and Pokémon Stadium 2, the glitch is fixed and Present uses the standard damage formula.
In all versions, it will still have a 20% chance of healing Pokémon with full HP, though nothing will happen.
Generations III and IV
Present uses the standard damage formula. Present heals the foe by 1/4 of its max HP instead of a flat 80. As before, it will fail if it would heal a Pokémon with full HP.
Generation V
Present consumes a Normal Gem even if it heals the target.
Generation VI
In the case of Present being used by a Pokémon with Parental Bond, if Present heals the target it will only hit once, and if it damages the target it will hit twice.
