Surf (Japanese: なみのり Surfing) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation I. It is HM03 in all generations.
Effect
In battle
Generations I and II
Surf inflicts damage and has no secondary effect.
Generation III
Same as the previous generations, but in a double battle, Surf will hit both opposing Pokémon. Its base Power is doubled if it is targeted at a Pokémon using Dive.
Generation IV
Same as the previous generation; however, in a double battle, Surf will hit all other Pokémon battling, including the partner.
Outside of battle
Surf can be used outside of battle to travel over bodies of water. When doing so, wild Pokémon may be encountered. Surfing is a very important mechanic of the games and must be used to complete the game, as all main series games to date have required Surf in order to reach Pokémon League where the Elite Four reside.
The speed of Surfing has varied dramatically through games. In Generations I and II, the speed was at the same speed as walking. In Generation III the speed was increased to running-speed.
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the Surfing speed was reduced to walking speed again. However, it should be noted that the player characters in Generations I and II walk at a somewhat faster pace than Lucas and Dawn. The speed was returned to running speed in Pokémon Platinum.
When Surf is used outside of battle, the sprite of a specific sea Pokémon floating on the water is shown, resembling the player being carried by the Pokémon. In Generation I, a Dewgong is shown (although this was just the Template:Type2 sprite; unless Pikachu is surfing, where a surfing Pikachu sprite is shown instead). In Generation II, a Lapras is shown (unless Pikachu is surfing, where a surfing Pikachu sprite is shown instead). In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Pokémon Emerald, the sprite is a Wailmer. In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and all Generation IV games, the sprite is indestinguishable as a specific Pokémon.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Piplup creates a wave and then surfs on it, pushing any players it hits. Anyone caught in it will be pushed until Piplup disappears, or pushes the character off the stage. Piplup will keep using Surf even when off the stage.

Trivia
- Surf is used by Pokémon in order to swim and carry humans on their backs simultaneously. However, some of the Pokémon that can learn it are far too small to possibly carry a child on their backs, eg. Barboach.
- Surf and Fly are the only HM moves that become event-exclusive moves on certain Pokémon, both on Pikachu.
- Surf has the highest power of any HM move.
- If Secret Power is used on the ocean in Generation III, then it will have the animation of Surf.
- In the beta of Red and Blue Versions, there was an item that allowed players to cross water, identical to Surf. It has been fan-named as "surfboard".
