Present has two different effects.Present can either deal damage against the target or heal the target.
If Present deals damage, then the base power of Present is chosen at random between 40, 80 and 120. If Present chooses to heal the target, it will heal the foe by 80HP.

In Pokémon Gold and Silver, the Level, Attack, and Defense variables of the damage formula are replaced. [1] The Attack variable is replaced with 10. The Level will be based on the index number of the defending Pokémon's type, while the Defense will be based on the index number of the attacking Pokémon's type. (If a Pokémon is dual-typed, its secondary type will be used.) Also, Present only inflicts a quarter of the normal damage against Rock-type and Steel-type Pokémon.

In the anime
The picture used in this is unsatisfactory. Please feel free to replace it so it conforms to Bulbapedia conventions. Reason: they're small, JPG, and the exploding and healing pictures are far too small and grainy.
Delibird pulls out a shimmering rainbow colored orb from the bag it carries, and Delibird throws it at the opponent. The orb then explodes and either damages or heals the opponent.
Oddly, when a Pokémon uses Present in the anime, it gives the foe a glowing ball that deals damage. However, in the games, the move has been classed as a Physical move. This is probably because most 'explosive' moves are considered physical.
Present is one of two moves that can naturally heal the opponent.
