The user will not faint if Memento fails (such as if it has no target or is blocked by {{m|substitute}}), if the target is immune (such as due to being {{type|Dark}} when Memento is boosted by {{a|Prankster}} in [[Generation VII]]), or if it is blocked by a {{cat|protection moves|protection move}}. However, the user will faint even if Memento is unable to affect the target's stats (such as due to {{a|Clear Body}} or if both stats are already at -6).
