Seed Flare

Seed Flare is the signature move of the legendary Grass-type Pokemon Shaymin. Shaymin releases an overwhelming shock wave of Grass-type energy from within to use this move. Because it is so powerful, it lowers the Special Defense stat. In its Sky Forme, it is even more powerful and has 80% of lowering the Special Defense of an opponent's Pokemon.

In the Movies
In the movie Giratina and the Sky Warrior, Shaymin uses Seed Flare to escape from the Reverse World and the wrath of Giratina. Nurse Joy in this movie, explains to Ash, Dawn, and Brock about the Seed Flare Shaymin used to escape. Shaymin absorbs the toxins, then purify it into water and light, then fires it with great force. She also says that one Shaymin who was using Seed Flare destroyed an entire forest. The more toxic gases Shaymin absorbs, the more powerful Seed Flare and its force becomes.

In the Games
In Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, Shaymin is caught at Lv. 30. Shaymin does not learn the move until it reaches Lv. 100. However, if it is received from the U.S. Toys'R'US event, it already knows the move. When learned, the base PP is 5. The move causes major damage even against Shaymin's weaknesses (i.e. Fire-types) and sometimes sharply lowers the foes Sp. Def. stat.
