The user will lose half of its maximum {{stat|HP}} (rounded down) and put a curse on the target. If the user has less than half of its maximum HP remaining, the move will execute fully but cause the user to faint. A cursed Pokémon will lose ¼ of its maximum HP at the end of each turn. The curse will remain until the Pokémon switches out or the battle ends. This move is not blocked by {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Detect}} or {{m|Spiky Shield}}, but is blocked by {{m|Crafty Shield}}.

The user does not lose HP if Curse misses (due to a {{cat|Moves with a semi-invulnerable turn|move with a semi-invulnerable turn}}), fails (due to the target already being affected by Curse), or is blocked by Crafty Shield.

If used by a non-{{type|Ghost}} Pokémon, Curse can now reduce the user's Speed stat even if its Attack and Defense stats both are at +6 stages. (However, Curse will still fail if the user's Attack and Defense stats both are at +6 stages, and its Speed stat is at -6 stages.)

If the user changes type before using Curse, Curse will obey the user's type at the time of the move's execution. In a [[Double Battle]], if the user gains the Ghost type before Curse executes, Curse will prioritize the opponent directly opposite the user as its target.

Curse can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing certain moves ({{m|Destiny Bond}}, {{m|Grudge}}, {{m|Mean Look}} and {{m|Spite}}) to have their base appeal points doubled if used in the next turn.

In a Single Battle, if the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type before executing Curse (due to [[Mega Evolution]], {{a|Color Change}} or {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}), Curse will execute as it does for all Ghost types, hurting the user and inflicting the curse.

In a Double Battle, if the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type before executing Curse (due to Mega Evolution, Color Change or Trick-or-Treat), Curse will now target the user's ally (or fail if there is none) if the user is on the right side (from its Trainer's perspective), or a random opponent if the user is on the left side (from its Trainer's perspective). {{m|Follow Me}} and {{m|Rage Powder}} will still redirect Curse as normal.
In a Triple Battle or [[Horde Encounter]], if the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type before executing Curse (due to Mega Evolution, Color Change, or Trick-or-Treat), Curse will now target a random adjacent opponent.


In a Triple Battle or [[Horde Encounter]], if the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type before executing Curse (due to Mega Evolution, Color Change or Trick-or-Treat), Curse will now target a random adjacent opponent.
Due to a [[List of glitches in Generation VI#Type-changing Curse glitch|glitch]], Curse can have an unusual behavior in some situations when the user has its type changed right before using the move.


If the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type due to {{a|Protean}} upon executing Curse, the user will use the Ghost-type Curse on itself (regardless of {{m|Follow Me}} or {{m|Rage Powder}}); this cannot be blocked by {{m|Crafty Shield}}.
In a Double Battle, if the user is not already Ghost-type and becomes Ghost-type before executing Curse (due to Mega Evolution, Color Change, or Trick-or-Treat), Curse may target a different Pokémon depending on the user's position. If the user is on the right side (from its Trainer's perspective), Curse will target the user's ally (or fail if there is none). If the user is on the left side (from its Trainer's perspective) Curse will target a random opponent. {{m|Follow Me}} and {{m|Rage Powder}} will still redirect Curse as normal.

====Generation VIII====
A [[Dynamax]] Pokémon can be cursed, however it only takes damage equal to 1/4 of its pre-Dynamax maximum HP, which will be between 1/6 and 1/8 of its Dynamax HP, or as little as 1/12 for the boss in a [[Max Raid Battle]].
 
Ghost-type Pokémon are no longer able to choose targets for Curse in a Double Battle, and will always attempt to inflict the curse on a random opponent.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Curse's differing effects are a play on its Japanese name, のろい ''Noroi'', which can mean either "curse" (呪い) or "dull/slow" (鈍い), depending on the kanji used. This is why it bestows an actual curse when used by Ghost-type Pokémon but lowers Speed when used by non-Ghost-type Pokémon.
* Curse and Z-Curse are the only moves with effects that vary depending on the type of the user.
* In [[Generation II]], three Pokémon could legitimately use both effects of the move by using {{m|Conversion}} or {{m|Conversion 2}} to alter its own type to and from the {{t|Ghost}} type: {{p|Porygon}}, {{p|Porygon2}}, and {{p|Smeargle}}. Technically speaking, any Pokémon that can change its type in battle (e.g. via {{a|Color Change}}, {{m|Reflect Type}} or {{m|Trick-or-Treat}}) can use of both of Curse's effects.  Similarly, if a Ghost-type Pokémon uses Curse while under the effect of {{m|Soak}}, the non-Ghost version will be used.

* Curse is one of eight moves to change type between generations, along with {{m|Bite}}, {{m|Charm}}, {{m|Gust}}, {{m|Karate Chop}}, {{m|Moonlight}}, {{m|Sand Attack}} and {{m|Sweet Kiss}}.  Of these eight, it is the only one that was not originally a {{type|Normal}} move.

* Curse is one of the four moves from [[Generation II]] to have its {{DL|List of modified moves|Type changes|type changed}} in a later [[generation]], the others being {{m|Charm}}, {{m|Moonlight}}, and {{m|Sweet Kiss}}.

* In [[Generation II]], [[TM03]], which contains Curse, is given away only at night by a man telling the following story:
::''"Let me recount a terrifying tale... Once upon a time, there was a little boy who was given a new Bicycle... He wanted to try it right away... He was having so much fun that he didn't notice the sun had set... While riding home in the pitch-black night, the bike suddenly slowed! The pedals became heavy! When he stopped pedaling, the bike began slipping backwards! It was as if the bike were cursed and trying to drag him into oblivion! ... ... Shrieeeek! The boy had been riding uphill on Cycling Road! ... Ba-dum ba-dum! For listening so patiently, you may take this—TM03! TM03 is Curse. It's a terrifying move that slowly whittles down the victim's HP."''
