On Smogon's Movedex: Generation VII Generation VIII Generation IX

Guardian of Alola (Japanese: ガーディアン・デ・アローラ Guardian de Alola) is a damage-dealing Fairy-type Z-Move introduced in Generation VII. It is the exclusive Z-Move of the guardian deities, and a transformed version of their signature move, Nature's Madness.

Effect

Guardian of Alola deals damage equal to 75% of the target's remaining HP.

If the target is protected by a protection move, Guardian of Alola still deals damage equal to 18.75% of the target's remaining HP (i.e. 25% of its normal damage).

Ditto Transformed into a guardian deity can use this move, but Smeargle that has Sketched Nature's Madness cannot.

Description

Games Description SM The user, the Land Spirit Pokémon, obtains Alola's energy using its Z-Power and attacks the target with full force. This reduces the target's HP greatly.

Learnset

Any guardian deity Pokémon can use Guardian of Alola if it knows Nature's Madness, holds Tapunium Z, and if its Trainer wears a Z-Ring.

Trivia

• This is the only exclusive Z-Move that can be used by more than one Pokémon species.
