In the Pokémon games, {{m|Hidden Power}} is a {{type|Normal}} move when the type is displayed, such as in battle and on status screens. However, the actual type of Hidden Power is determined by the Pokémon's [[individual values]], and through calculation, can be set as one of other natural types. In Generations II to V, Hidden Power's base power is also determined by the Pokémon's individual values; in Generation II it ranges from 31 to 70, while in Generation III to V it ranges from 30 to 70. From Generation VI onward, Hidden Power's base power is always 60.

The type of Hidden Power can be checked in certain locations in the games by talking to certain NPCs. These NPCs will refuse to tell the player the Hidden Power type of a Pokémon unless it can learn the move via [[level]] up or [[TM]] (even if it knows Hidden Power at the time).<!--they will not tell the Hidden Power type of a Smeargle that knows Hidden Power-->
