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.

Surf in the Generation IV games

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. Surf is needed in most games to progress through it, sometimes to reach other islands and cities.

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.

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 10-year-old on their backs, eg. Azurill.
  • Surf and Fly are the only HM moves that become event-exclusive moves on certain Pokémon, both on Pikachu.
