Sketch (move): Difference between revisions

gameimage=Sketch.png |

Sketch allows the user to copy the opponent's last move permanently, therefore replacing Sketch. Sketch cannot be used to copy {{m|Selfdestruct}}, {{m|Explosion}}, {{m|Struggle}}, {{m|Transform}}, or {{m|Metronome}}. If used by a transformed Pokémon, Sketch will fail. If the battle does not allow [[Experience|experience points]] to be earned (such as link battles or [[Battle Tower]] battles), any move learned via Sketch will be forgotten at the end of the battle.

Sketch can now be used to copy {{m|Selfdestruct}} and {{m|Explosion}} when used in a battle with a Pokémon with the {{a|Damp}} Ability. It can also be used to copy {{m|Metronome}} and {{m|Transform}}, if the move fails to activate due to effects such as sleep; this did not work in Generation II. {{m|Struggle}} and [[Shadow move]]s cannot be sketched.

===Generation IV and onwards===

Same as Generation III, except that, in addition to not being able to copy {{m|Struggle}}, Sketch cannot be used to copy {{m|Chatter}}.

== Trivia ==

*This move is the first [[Generation II]] move in [[index number]] order.

*This move is the only move that can be on a Pokémon's moveset that does not naturally have a [[PP]] value at a multiple of 5.
