Smokescreen (move)

Smokescreen (Japanese: えんまく Smokescreen), formatted as SmokeScreen prior to Pokémon X and Y, is a non-damaging move introduced in Generation I.

Effect
Smokescreen lowers the target's stat by one stage.

Smokescreen can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, with the user gaining extra three appeal points if the move was used in the prior turn.

If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Smokescreen, the user's is raised by one stage.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
In Red Rescue Team, Blue Rescue Team, Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Sky, the user will give an opposing Pokémon the Whiffer status. Under the Whiffer status, the opposing Pokémon will always miss with any attack; even moves like or  will miss.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity and later, Smokescreen will only decrease the accuracy of the Pokémon that it was used on, just as it does in the main series games.
