'''Feint''' (Japanese: '''フェイント''' ''Feint'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].


==Effect==
==Effect==
Feint inflicts damage, but only strikes a target that has used {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}} during that turn, lifting the effects of Protect or Detect for the remainder of the turn in a [[double battle]]. Feint is an increased [[priority]] move, and attacks after Protect and Detect, but before other increased priority attacks.
===Generation IV===
Feint inflicts damage but only strikes a target that has used {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}} during that turn, lifting the effects of Protect or Detect for the remainder of the turn. Feint cannot remove the effects of protecting moves if it misses or does not affect the target (such as if the target is {{type|Ghost}}).
 
Feint has an increased [[priority]] of +2, so is used after Protect or Detect, but before other increased priority attacks.
 
===Generation V===
Feint can now inflict damage even if the target has not used {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}}, and its power has changed from 50 to 30.


==In the anime==
Despite being an increased priority move, Feint will lift the effects of {{m|Wide Guard}} and {{m|Quick Guard}} for the remainder of the turn only if they are used on an opposing team. Feint is not blocked by an opponent's Quick Guard, but it is blocked by an ally's if it targets an ally.

===Generation VI onwards===
Image:Conway'sHeracross Feint.JPG|{{p|Heracross}} using '''Feint''' on {{TP|Paul|Elekid|Electabuzz}}.
Feint will now lift the effects of Quick Guard and Wide Guard when used on allies, and it is no longer blocked by an ally's Quick Guard.
</gallery>
 
Feint can now be copied by {{m|Mirror Move}}.
 
Feint hits a target even if it is protected by {{m|Mat Block}}, {{m|Spiky Shield}}, {{m|King's Shield}}, {{m|Baneful Bunker}}, {{m|Obstruct}}, {{m|Silk Trap}}, or {{m|Burning Bulwark}} and removes that protection for the rest of the turn. Additionally, the user of Feint does not suffer the negative effects of these moves.
 
Feint hits a target even if it is protected by {{m|Max Guard}} but does not remove the protection.
 
Feint removes {{m|Crafty Shield}} and Mat Block from the target's team.


===Pokémon===
==Description==
'''{{p|Heracross}}'''. Heracross's long horn glows white. Heracross then charges towards its opponent, ending the foe's {{m|Protect}} or {{m|Detect}}.

==={{g|UNITE}}===
In Pokémon UNITE, Feint is {{p|Absol}}'s first move and {{p|Cinderace}}'s second move.
 
Absol starts with the move. The user dashes in an arc, damaging any Pokémon hit. The move deals damage as if all hit Pokémon have 0 Defense, and bypasses shields. At level 5 it is replaced by either {{m|Night Slash}} or {{m|Pursuit}}.
 
Cinderace can obtain the move by reaching level 8 and upgrading {{m|Low Sweep}} into it instead of {{m|Flame Charge}}. The user dodges, increasing their movement speed and becoming briefly invincible. At level 13, the next 3 basic attacks after dodging restore HP.
