'''Yawn''' (Japanese: '''あくび''' ''Yawn'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation III]].


= Battle Effect =
==Effect==
===Generations III and IV===
Yawn makes the target drowsy. At the end of the next turn, the drowsy Pokémon will fall {{status|sleep|asleep}}, unless it is already afflicted by a non-volatile [[status condition]]. If a drowsy Pokémon [[Recall|switches]] out, it loses its drowsiness. Drowsiness cannot be passed by {{m|Baton Pass}}.


== [[Generation III]] ==
Yawn bypasses {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit, unless the target is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}.
The turn Yawn is used the only effect will be the user yawning at the opponent. At the end of the next turn though, the target will fall asleep unless it gets affected by another status condition before or a status-protecting move is used ({{m|Safeguard}}, {{m|Uproar}}).


Yawn will fail immediately if the target is under any other major status condition, when used against a Pokémon having {{a|Insomnia}} or {{a|Vital Spirit}}.
Yawn will fail if the target is already afflicted by a major [[status condition]] or behind a {{OBP|substitute|doll}}.


=Learnset=
Yawn will fail if the target has the [[Ability]] {{a|Insomnia}} or {{a|Vital Spirit}} or if it has {{a|Leaf Guard}} during [[harsh sunlight]]; a drowsy Pokémon that has Insomnia, Vital Spirit, or (during harsh sunlight) Leaf Guard will not fall asleep. Yawn will fail if used on a Pokémon without {{a|Soundproof}} during an {{m|uproar}}. It will also fail when used on a target under the effect of {{m|Safeguard}}, but a Pokémon that is already drowsy can still fall asleep while under the effect of Safeguard.
==[[Generation III]]==
 
<div style="{{Learnset section box style}}">
If a Pokémon falls asleep from Yawn while it is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}, it will remain in that state until it attempts to use the move again (whether it wakes up or not).
 
Yawn can be used as the first move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing {{m|Rest}} and {{m|Slack Off}} to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn.
 
===Generation V onwards===
Yawn no longer fails during an {{m|uproar}}, but drowsiness cannot cause a Pokémon to fall asleep during an uproar.
 
Yawn will fail if the target has the Ability {{a|Comatose}} or is a Meteor Form {{p|Minior}}; a drowsy Pokémon that has Comatose or that is Meteor Form Minior will not fall asleep. Yawn will fail if used on a target that is affected by {{a|Sweet Veil}}, {{m|Electric Terrain}}, or {{a|Flower Veil}}; Sweet Veil, Electric Terrain, and {{m|Misty Terrain}} each also prevent affected Pokémon already drowsy due to Yawn from falling asleep.
 
Yawn can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], causing certain moves ({{m|Dream Eater}}, {{m|Hex}}, {{m|Nightmare}}, and {{m|Wake-Up Slap}}) to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.
 
If powered up by a [[Normalium Z]] into Z-Yawn, the user's {{stat|Speed}} stat is raised by one stage.

===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]===
Yawn inflicts the {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Yawning}} status condition on the enemy, causing them to fall asleep 3 turns later (if the target is in middle of a two-turn move such as {{m|Dig}}, it will be automatically brought out of it when it falls asleep). This move fails if the target is immune to [[Sleep (status condition)|Sleep]]. This move is affected by {{m|Magic Coat}} and the {{DL|Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)|Muzzled}} status condition.

==={{g|UNITE}}===
In Pokémon UNITE, Yawn is {{p|Snorlax}}'s second move. It is obtained by reaching level 7 and upgrading {{m|Rest}} into it instead of {{m|Block}}. The user sends out a slow short-range projectile that puts all targets hit to Sleep for 2 seconds. At level 13, the affected enemies are also slowed for 3s after waking up.

==Trivia==
* Yawn is the only move whose English name begins with the letter Y.
* Its basis stems from the phenomenon of how yawns are contagious from person to person.
* In [[Generation III]], the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it ignores accuracy and evasion checks.

Yawn (Japanese: あくび Yawn) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

Generations III and IV

Yawn makes the target drowsy. At the end of the next turn, the drowsy Pokémon will fall asleep, unless it is already afflicted by a non-volatile status condition. If a drowsy Pokémon switches out, it loses its drowsiness. Drowsiness cannot be passed by Baton Pass.

Yawn bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.

Yawn will fail if the target is already afflicted by a major status condition or behind a substitute.

Yawn will fail if the target has the Ability Insomnia or Vital Spirit or if it has Leaf Guard during harsh sunlight; a drowsy Pokémon that has Insomnia, Vital Spirit, or (during harsh sunlight) Leaf Guard will not fall asleep. Yawn will fail if used on a Pokémon without Soundproof during an uproar. It will also fail when used on a target under the effect of Safeguard, but a Pokémon that is already drowsy can still fall asleep while under the effect of Safeguard.

If a Pokémon falls asleep from Yawn while it is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly, it will remain in that state until it attempts to use the move again (whether it wakes up or not).

Yawn can be used as the first move of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing Rest and Slack Off to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn.

Generation V onwards

Yawn no longer fails during an uproar, but drowsiness cannot cause a Pokémon to fall asleep during an uproar.

Yawn will fail if the target has the Ability Comatose or is a Meteor Form Minior; a drowsy Pokémon that has Comatose or that is Meteor Form Minior will not fall asleep. Yawn will fail if used on a target that is affected by Sweet Veil, Electric Terrain, or Flower Veil; Sweet Veil, Electric Terrain, and Misty Terrain each also prevent affected Pokémon already drowsy due to Yawn from falling asleep.

Yawn can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing certain moves (Dream Eater, Hex, Nightmare, and Wake-Up Slap) to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.

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

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

Yawn inflicts the Yawning status condition on the enemy, causing them to fall asleep 3 turns later (if the target is in middle of a two-turn move such as Dig, it will be automatically brought out of it when it falls asleep). This move fails if the target is immune to Sleep. This move is affected by Magic Coat and the Muzzled status condition.

Trivia

  • Yawn is the only move whose English name begins with the letter Y.
  • Its basis stems from the phenomenon of how yawns are contagious from person to person.
  • In Generation III, the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it ignores accuracy and evasion checks.
