Leer (Japanese: にらみつける Glare) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I.

Effect

Leer decreases the Defense stat of all adjacent opponents by one stage.

Leer can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, giving the user an extra three appeal points if either the move Rage or Scary Face was used in the prior turn. It can also be used to start a combination, causing certain moves (Bite, Feint Attack, Glare, Horn Attack, Scary Face, Scratch, Stomp and Tackle) to have their base appeal points doubled if used in the next turn.

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Leer, the user's Attack stat rises one stage.
