Splash (Japanese: はねる Hop) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation I. Prior to Generation II, it was the signature move of Magikarp. It has no effect whatsoever in the main series games.

Effect

Main series

Generation I

Splash has no effect whatsoever. After selecting the move, it will simply show an animation, and then the message, "No effect!"

Generation II-III

Splash's message has changed to, "But nothing happened!"

Generation IV and on

In addition to its previous (lack of) effect, Splash now cannot be used while Gravity is in effect.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon

The user will move to a random different tile one ratio away. The user will inflict 5 damage to itself and the opponent if the move comes in contact with another Pokémon.

Pokémon Conquest

Splash has no area of effect or effect on the user, and thus does nothing but show its animation. However, the user can choose which direction to perform it in; this has no effect on the move itself, but the user will be left facing the same direction (and thus is not necessarily equivalent to waiting the turn, which would give the user no opportunity to change their facing). Unlike most moves in Pokémon Conquest, Splash can be used even if it would have no target (presumably because it never has a target).

Trivia

  • While its English name suggests an association with water, its Japanese name, はねる haneru, can mean both splash and hop (although usually the latter). This explains why the move can be learned by Pokémon such as Spoink and Hoppip—species who have no association with water but are known for hopping or jumping—and why it is disabled by Gravity. Its somewhat misleading English name is likely due to its initial exclusivity to Magikarp.
  • In the anime, Splash is the most common result of Metronome.
