A '''field move''' is a [[move]] that can be used outside of {{pkmn|battle}} in the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}}.


A '''field move''' is a [[move]] which can be used out of battle in the main [[Pokémon games]]. All [[HM|Hidden Machine]] moves have a field move effect, and some moves accessible through [[level|leveling up]], [[TM|Technical Machines]], or [[move tutor|other means]] may also help the {{player}} through the game.
==Overview==
All [[HM]] moves have a field move effect, and several other moves do as well. Field moves that are required to bypass certain obstacles in particular games are usually taught by HMs in those games.


== Field moves ==
From [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} to {{gen|IV}} and in [[Generation VI]], the {{player}} must have earned a particular [[badge]] before they can use each HM move as a field move.
=== HM moves ===
* '''{{m|Cut}}:''' The Pokémon can cut down small trees and, until [[Generation IV]], [[tall grass]] on the field. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM01]] in all [[generation]]s. In [[Generation I]], trees cut down would be regenerated if the game was saved and the power turned off, even if the player was still in the area, allowing the player to [[List of minor glitches#Standing on a tree|stand on a tree]]; however, this isn't the case in future generations.
* '''{{m|Fly}}:''' The {{player}} can fly on the Pokémon to any previously visited city or town, or certain locations such as the {{Ho|Battle Tower}} in [[Hoenn]]. Fly can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM02]] in all generations.
* '''{{m|Surf}}:''' The player can travel on water by traveling on the Pokémon's back. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM03]] in all generations.
* '''{{m|Strength}}:''' The Pokémon is able to push boulders of a certain type around. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM04]] in all generations.
* '''{{m|Flash}}:''' The Pokémon can light up a cavern covered by darkness such as [[Dark Cave]]. Flash can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM05]] in the first three generations, and by using [[TM70]] in Generations {{gen|IV}} and {{gen|V}}.
* '''{{m|Whirlpool}}:''' The Pokémon can dismiss small whirlpools on the water. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM06]] in [[Generation II]]. Since [[Generation III]] it has been a regular level-up move. In [[Generation IV]]'s {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} it has regained HM status as [[HM05]].
* '''{{m|Waterfall}}:''' The Pokémon can climb up waterfalls. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM07]] from Generation II to Generation IV, and [[HM05]] in [[Generation V]]. It was also available in [[Generation I]] as a level-up move, but it didn't have the field move status.
* '''{{m|Rock Smash}}:''' The Pokémon can smash boulders of a certain type into pieces. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM08]] in Generation II, by using [[HM06]] in Generations III and IV, and by using [[TM94]].
* '''{{m|Dive}}:''' The player can dive underwater when surfing in deep waters. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM08]] in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. Since [[Generation IV]] it has been a regular level-up move. In [[Generation V]], it has regained HM status as [[HM06]].
* '''{{m|Defog}}:''' The Pokémon can clear out fog on the field. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM05]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
* '''{{m|Rock Climb}}:''' The Pokémon can climb up rocky walls. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM08]] in Generation IV.


=== TM moves ===
Starting in [[Generation III]], whenever a field move is used by a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, a short animation showing the Pokémon will play. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, if a field move is used by a [[walking Pokémon]], this animation will not play; the Pokémon will instead be shown moving and using the move in the overworld.
* '''{{m|Dig}}:''' The Pokémon can dig the player out of a cavern to the place where the player entered it, similar to an [[Escape Rope]]. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM28]] in all generations. Several Pokémon can also learn the move by leveling up.
* '''{{m|Teleport}}:''' The Pokémon can teleport the player to the front of the last visited Pokémon Center by using telekinesis. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM30]] in Generation I, and it can be learned by many {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.
* '''{{m|Softboiled}}:''' The Pokémon cuts some of its [[Stats#Hit Points|HP]] to recover another Pokémon's HP. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM41]] in Generation I, and it can be learned via level-up by {{p|Chansey}} and {{p|Blissey}} as well as certain Pokémon via a [[move tutor]] in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
* '''{{m|Headbutt}}:''' The Pokémon can shake a small tree which may cause a [[wild Pokémon]] to fall down. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM02]] in Generation II. Though available as a level up move in Generation I and future generations, it only had status as a field move in Generation II and has regained such status in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} where it is available via a [[move tutor]] in [[Ilex Forest]]. It once again lost it's field move status in Geneation V.
* '''{{m|Rock Smash}}:''' Can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM08]] in Generation II, [[HM06]] in Generations III and IV, and [[TM94]] in Generation V. Clears cracked rocks; in Generation III Pokémon can occasionally be found in them.
[[Image:Flash_demo.gif|right|thumb|250px|'''Flash''' remains a field move in [[Generation IV]], despite no longer being an HM.]]
* '''{{m|Sweet Scent}}:''' The Pokémon can activate a wild Pokémon battle in tall grass, caves, and water. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM12]] in Generation II, and it can be learned by many {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.
* '''{{m|Secret Power}}:''' The Pokémon can clear an entrance into a big tree, a bush or an indent in a wall in order to create a [[Secret Base]]. It can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[TM43]] in Generations III and IV, but is no longer a field move in the latter.
* '''{{m|Flash}}:''' Can be taught to a Pokémon by using [[HM05]] in Generations I, II, and III, and is currently a [[TM70|TM move]]. It lights up dark caves. Prior to Generation III, the whole screen was dark. In later Generations, a small circle around the player can be seen, which expands when Flash is used.


=== Other moves ===
From [[Generation VII]] onwards (except in {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}), it is not possible to use any moves outside of battle.
* '''{{m|Milk Drink}}:''' Similar to Softboiled, the Pokémon cuts some of its [[Stats#Hit Points|HP]] to recover another Pokémon's HP. It can only be learned by {{p|Miltank}} by leveling up.
* In {{game4|SMUSUM}}, [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] serve a similar purpose to field moves from previous games.
* '''{{m|Chatter}}:''' It can be used to record and temporarily alter the battle cry of a {{p|Chatot}}. It does not function correctly with other Pokémon. The recorded audio is reset to Chatot's default cry when it is deposited into a box.
* In {{LGPE}}, [[Secret Technique]]s are equivalent to the HM field moves from the Generation I games.
* In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, there is no direct equivalent to field moves, with the [[Flying Taxi]] replacing {{m|Fly}} and the [[Rotom Bike]] Water Mode replacing {{m|Surf}}.
* In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the eight HM field moves can be used with the help of a new [[Pokétch]] app that calls on [[wild Pokémon]] for assistance, eliminating the need to teach them to the player's own Pokémon. Field moves make a return in these remakes, with moves such as {{m|Teleport}} being able to be used outside of battle once more.  
* In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, any Pokémon can be sent out to do various things like destroy rocks and shake trees, and there are summonable {{OBP|Ride Pokémon|Hisui}} that can be ridden. The player can also select and instantly travel to previously visited locations using the [[Arc Phone]], similar to the functionality of Fly.
* In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} can be ridden and is able to glide, surf, and climb. The Flying Taxi also returns.

==Trivia==
* Some field moves share their effects with certain [[item]]s that can be used by the {{player}} in the field.
** {{m|Dig}} shares its effect with the [[Escape Rope]].
** {{m|Sweet Scent}} shares its effect with [[Honey]].
* {{m|Flash}} has had a greater number of different effects than any other field move.
* {{m|Milk Drink}} and {{m|Soft-Boiled}} are the only field moves not to have unique effects, sharing their effects with each other.
* [[Generation V]] is the only generation featuring field moves not to introduce either any new field moves or any new effects for existing field moves.
** In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, the player can help clear a section of boulders in [[Clay Tunnel]] if a member of their [[party]] knows {{m|Rock Smash}}, though Rock Smash is not a field move in Generation V.
