Looks liks this one is 75% too. Good luck explaining the apparent 100% recovery with a Big Root, though.... --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]]'' 07:57, 29 October 2013 (UTC) | Looks liks this one is 75% too.

Does Swirlix really learn Draining Kiss? It is confirmed on the official Pokemon X and Y website that Spritzee does learn that move

- What would be point of showing Pokémon with a move it can't learn? (The pre-release screenshot has Swirlix). Marked +-+-+ (talk) 07:49, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
- The reason Spritzee isn't listed is the image caption that says it can learn Draining Kiss is for an image of Aromatheorpy. Since there is an error in the caption already, it is best not to trust it too much. --SnorlaxMonster 08:22, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
How much recovery?
Prior to XY's release this move was rumored to have 100% recovery, but that was argued down as nonsensical. But now we can verify it firsthand -- I did an experiment earlier to verify Oblivion Wing's recovery rate (which appears to be 75%), so here's another experiment for Draining Kiss:
- Finding a wild Smeargle on Route 6, I made it Sketch Endeavor, then swapped to a (Lv.36) Klefki.
- Smeargle reduced Klefki to 40HP.
- Draining Kiss knocked out Smeargle in one shot and restored 30HP (a 75% recovery) to Klefki.
Same experiment, but holding a Big Root:
- wild Smeargle reduced Klefki to 42 HP.
- Draining Kiss knocked out Smeargle and restored 42HP (apparent 100% recovery) to Klefki.
Looks liks this one is 75% too. Good luck explaining the apparent 100% recovery with a Big Root, though.... --Stratelier 07:57, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
