Max Guard | {{main|Protection}} | ||
Max Guard protects the user from moves for the rest of the turn. It offers greater protection than most other [[protection]] moves. | |||
Max Guard fully protects the user from most [[Max Move]]s and cannot be penetrated or nullified by {{cat|moves that break protection}}. {{m|G-Max One Blow}}, {{m|G-Max Rapid Flow}}, and {{m|Feint}} deal full damage through Max Guard, but Feint does not lift Max Guard's protection like it would other protection effects. Max Guard also follows many of the [[Protection#Unprotectable moves|the moves blocked by other protection]], but it successfully protects from {{m|Block}}, {{m|Flower Shield}}, {{m|Gear Up}}, {{m|Magnetic Flux}}, {{m|Phantom Force}}, {{m|Psych Up}}, {{m|Shadow Force}}, {{m|Teatime}}, {{m|Transform}}, and any contact move affected by {{a|Unseen Fist}}. | |||
The chance that Max Guard will succeed drops each time the user successfully and consecutively uses {{m|Endure}}, any protection move that [[Protection#Moves that protect only the user|only affects the user]], {{m|Quick Guard}}, or {{m|Wide Guard}}. | |||
