==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Spore can only be learned by [[Pokémon category|Mushroom Pokémon]].
* Spore is the only sleep-inducing status move with 100% accuracy. <!--Yawn does not count because it causes drowsiness, not sleep.-->
** All Pokémon capable of learning the move can also have the Ability {{a|Effect Spore}}.
* Excluding the use of {{m|Sketch}}, a Pokémon able to learn Spore has been introduced in every odd numbered Generation.
* Spore is the only sleep-inducing status move with 100% accuracy.
* All Pokémon that naturally learn Spore are associated with mushrooms. This is because its Japanese name is ''Mushroom Spore'' ({{tt|キノコのほうし|Kinoko no Hōshi}}).
** [[Yawn]] never misses, however, it only causes drowsiness. This means that the sleep effect, which will happen on the next turn, can be prevented by switching out.
** The reference to mushrooms are reinforced in the move description in [[Pokémon Stadium]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] while the move animation depicts a mushroom emitting spores from [[Generation VII]] onwards.

Spore (Japanese: キノコのほうし Mushroom Spore) is a non-damaging Grass-type move introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation III, it was the signature move of Paras and Parasect.

Effect

Generation I

Spore puts the target to sleep.

In the Generation I handheld games only, Spore can affect a target behind a substitute.

Generation II

In the Generation II core series games, when an in-game opponent outside of the Battle Tower uses Spore, the move has a 25% chance to fail.

Generations III to V

Spore cannot affect targets with Insomnia or Vital Spirit as their Ability.

Generation VI onwards

Grass-type Pokémon, Pokémon with Overcoat, and Pokémon holding the Safety Goggles are now immune to Spore. Pokémon under the effect of Sweet Veil are also unaffected by Spore.

Spore 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 Grassium Z into Z-Spore, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

Trivia

  • Spore is the only sleep-inducing status move with 100% accuracy.
  • Excluding the use of Sketch, a Pokémon able to learn Spore has been introduced in every odd numbered Generation.
  • All Pokémon that naturally learn Spore are associated with mushrooms. This is because its Japanese name is Mushroom Spore (キノコのほうし).
