Effects[]

In Battle[]

When Detect is used it will protect the user from the effects of the opponents move during the same turn, it will not work, however, against the effects of the move Perish Song. If Detect was successful in the previous turn, moves such as Protect, Endure or Detect will have only 50% accuracy.

In the Mystery Dungeon series, Detect grants the user the protect status blocking most attacks for as long as the status stays active, which usually lasts 3-6 turns. When Feint is used, the protect status is broken early. Pokémon under the protect status skill take damage from items and explosions.

Contests[]

Can avoid being startled by others once.
