Status condition: Difference between revisions

The burn condition (BRN) inflicts damage every turn and halves damage dealt by a Pokémon's [[physical move]]s (except Pokémon with the {{a|Guts}} Ability and {{m|Facade}} from Generation VI onward). In Generation I and from Generation VII onward, burn inflicts damage equal to 1/16 of its maximum HP every turn; from Generation II to VI, burn inflicts damage equal to 1/8 of its maximum HP every turn. Burn damage is halved if the Pokémon has the Ability {{a|Heatproof}}. In Generation V, Pokémon glow red while afflicted with burn.

====Freeze====

The freeze condition (FRZ) causes a Pokémon to be unable to use moves. From [[Generation II]] onward, the frozen Pokémon has a chance to be thawed each turn (10% in Generation II or 20% in Generation III onwards), possibly even thawing right after being frozen; however, in [[Generation I]], a frozen Pokémon never thaws without external aid. Pokémon cannot be frozen in {{weather|harsh sunlight}}.

====Paralysis====

All moves which cause poison are {{type|Poison}}, except {{m|Twineedle}}, {{m|Secret Power}} (when used in [[tall grass]]; [[Generation III]] only), {{m|Psycho Shift}} (while poisoned), and {{m|Fling}} (if [[Poison Barb]] or [[Toxic Orb]] is held). Poison-type Pokémon cannot be normally poisoned. The other causes of poisoning are one layer of {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, {{a|Poison Point}}, {{a|Effect Spore}}, or {{a|Poison Touch}}. In Generation II, {{type|Steel}} Pokémon cannot be poisoned by Poison-type moves (but they can be poisoned by {{m|Twineedle}}); from Generation III onward, Steel-type Pokémon and Pokémon with the {{a|Immunity}} Ability cannot normally be poisoned. Poison- and Steel-type Pokémon can be poisoned by a Pokémon with the {{a|Corrosion}} Ability. Poison (including bad poison) can be cured with the use of an [[Antidote]], [[Drash Berry]] ([[Generation III]] only) and [[Pecha Berry]] ([[PSNCureBerry]] in [[Generation II]]).

====={{anchor|Badly poisoned|Badly poisoned}}=====

The bad poison condition inflicts damage every turn, with the amount of damage increasing each turn. It initially inflicts damage equal to 1/16 of the Pokémon's maximum HP, with the damage inflicted increasing by 1/16 each turn (2/16 on the second turn, 3/16 on the third turn, etc.). In Generation V, Pokémon glow purple while afflicted with bad poison. Starting from Generation V bad poison is also marked by darker status flag in the battle and Pokémon summary.

All moves which badly poison are {{type|Poison}}, except {{m|Psycho Shift}} (while badly poisoned) and {{m|Fling}} (if [[Toxic Orb]] is held). Badly poison is the main effect of the move {{m|Toxic}} and two layers of {{m|Toxic Spikes}}.

The sleep condition (SLP) causes a Pokémon to be unable to use moves, except {{m|Snore}} and {{m|Sleep Talk}}. From Generation V onward, Pokémon close their eyes while sleeping and move more slowly.

Plenty of moves are able to put a Pokémon to sleep, most of them are either {{type|Normal}}, {{type|Psychic}}, or {{type|Grass}}. In addition to moves that cause sleep, after contact with {{a|Effect Spore}} or a [[obedience|disobedient]] Pokémon may also nap during battle. Pokémon with the {{a|Vital Spirit}} or {{a|Insomnia}} Ability cannot normally be put to sleep. {{m|Worry Seed}} changes the target's Ability to Insomnia causing it to be unable to sleep too. A sleeping Pokémon can be awoken by an [[Awakening]] or a [[Chesto Berry]] ([[Mint Berry]] in [[Generation II]]). If its target is sleeping, {{m|Wake-Up Slap}} will wake it up in addition to becoming more powerful. In [[Generation I]] core series games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the [[Poké Flute]] can be used in battle to wake up a sleeping Pokémon (without being consumed). In the [[Generation III]] and {{gen|IV}} core series games and {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the [[Blue Flute]] can be used to wake up a sleeping Pokémon (without being consumed).
