Defense Curl (Japanese: まるくなる Curl Up) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. It was TM40 in Generation II.
Effect
Defense Curl increases the user's Defense by 1 stage.
Defense Curl also doubles the power of the user's Rollout and Ice Ball as long as the user remains in battle. This effect cannot be Baton Passed.
Defense Curl can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with Rollout and Tackle having their base appeal points doubled if they are used in the next turn. It can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing Ice Ball and Rollout to give the user an extra three appeal points if they are used in the next turn.
If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Defense Curl, the user's accuracy is raised by one stage.
