Description
Games | Description |
---|---|
GSC | Steals 1/2 of the damage inflicted. |
RSE | An attack that absorbs half the damage inflicted. |
FRLG | An attack that absorbs half the damage it inflicted to restore HP. |
DPPtHGSS BWB2W2 XYORAS SMUSUMPE SWSHBDSP |
A nutrient-draining attack. The user's HP is restored by half the damage taken by the target. |
LA | The user attacks by draining the target’s nutrients. Some of the damage dealt to the target is absorbed by the user to restore their own HP. |
Effect
In battle
Absorb deals damage to the target, then restores the user's HP by up to half of the damage dealt to the target.
If the user is holding a Big Root, they will receive 30% more HP from which they absorbed from a Pokémon. If Absorb is used on a Pokémon with Liquid Ooze, instead of gaining HP, they lose HP by the amount they would have received if they gained it.
In a Double Battle, Absorb can target any Pokémon around the user. In a Triple Battle, Absorb can only target a Pokémon that is adjacent to the user.
