While Uproar is being used, the user is making an uproar that prevents any Pokémon on the field from falling asleep from {{cat|moves that can inflict sleep}}. On the first turn of Uproar only, any {{status|sleep}}ing Pokémon on the field are woken up; if a sleeping Pokémon is [[switch]]ed into battle after Uproar's first turn, it will not be woken up.
While Uproar is being used, the user is making an uproar that prevents any Pokémon on the field from falling asleep from {{cat|moves that can inflict sleep}}, {{a|Effect Spore}}, and [[Obedience|disobedience]] (even if they have the Ability {{a|Soundproof}}). When Uproar is initially used (i.e. when the user is not already making an uproar), any {{status|sleep}}ing Pokémon on the field are woken up (even if they have the Ability Soundproof); if a sleeping Pokémon is [[switch]]ed into battle after Uproar's first turn, it will not be woken up.


During an uproar, the moves {{m|Rest}} and {{m|Yawn}} will fail if they are used. If a Pokémon is made drowsy by Yawn before an uproar starts, it can still fall asleep during the uproar as a result.
