===In battle===
When a Pokémon with Torrent uses a {{type|Water}} [[move]], the power will increase by 1.5× if the user has less than or equal to ⅓ of its maximum HP remaining.
====Generations III to IV====
When a Pokémon with Torrent uses a {{type|Water}} [[move]], the move's [[power]] will be increased by 50% if the user has less than or equal to ⅓ of its maximum HP remaining.
 
====Generations V onwards====
Instead of boosting Water-type moves' power, Torrent now technically boosts the Pokémon's {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} by 50% during damage calculation if a Water-type move is being used, resulting in effectively the same effect.
