Hidden Power (Japanese: めざめるパワー Awakening Power) is a damage-dealing Normal-type move introduced in Generation II. Although it appears as a Normal-type move, Hidden Power's actual type varies. It is TM10 as of Generation II.
Effect
- Main article: Hidden Power (move)/Calculation
Generations II to V
Hidden Power inflicts damage using a type and base power determined by the user's IVs.
Hidden Power can receive same-type attack bonus. For instance, a Bug-type Pokémon will receive same-type attack bonus when using a Bug-type Hidden Power. Although Hidden Power is Normal-type in the game's data, a Normal-type Hidden Power is not obtainable. Because of this, a pure Normal-type Pokémon will never receive same-type attack bonus when using Hidden Power unless it also has Normalize as its Ability.
Generation VI
Hidden Power's base power is now 60, and like in previous generations, its type is determined by the user's IVs. As the method for determining the type of Hidden Power is the same as Generation III to V, a Fairy-type Hidden Power is not possible.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon
The type and base power of Hidden Power is randomly calculated whenever a Pokémon enters a dungeon, and does not change between floors. The type is selected among each of the 17 types with roughly equal probability (the game chooses from the 18 types, including the ???-type, choosing again if the ???-type is chosen; if this is done 100 times consecutively, Hidden Power will be of the Fire-type. The base power of the move is chosen among the following values with equal probability: 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 15, and 17.
Pokémon Rumble/Pokémon Rumble Blast
Hidden Power is randomly assigned any of the 17 types whenever a Toy Pokémon has it as one of its moves. The type does not change for as long as the Pokémon keeps the move.

"Testing" Hidden Power
Players are able to test what the type of their Hidden Power is most often by utilizing a Kecleon. It does not have to be their own, though this makes it more convenient. Entering any Double Battle with the Pokémon with Hidden Power and Kecleon at the front of the list, then using Hidden Power on the Kecleon will cause it to change types to the type that Hidden Power is, or, if the Hidden Power is a Ghost-type move, cause nothing to happen due to Kecleon's immunity.
However, starting in Platinum, there is a man in-game that will tell the player the type of their Pokémon's Hidden Power, and, even if the Pokémon doesn't know Hidden Power, the type that it would have. In Platinum, he is present in the Veilstone Game Corner Prize Exchange house. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, he is present in the Celadon Game Corner Prize Exchange house. In Black and White, he is present in the Pokémon Center in Mistralton City. In Black 2 and White 2, he has been relocated to the Pokémon World Tournament. In X and Y, he is in a house next to the boutique in Anistar City.

Trivia
- In Generation II, Shiny Pokémon could only use a Grass- or Dragon-type Hidden Power due to the spread of individual values required for alternate coloration.
- Prior to Generation IV, Hidden Power was one of the only two moves (along with Weather Ball) which could, depending on the Pokémon, be either physical or special, due to the damage category being determined by the type.
- More Pokémon can learn Hidden Power than any other move (although Struggle can be used by any Pokémon with no PP left on any of their moves).
- Hidden Power's type variety has not been addressed in the anime.
