Talk:Rest (move)
Does Jirachi learn this at 5 or at 30? And does it really learn it twice?

Yes, I know it's a bit weird, but it gets weirder for evolved Pokémon... And let's not forget Sketch. - 振霖T 00:48, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Sleeping in Generation III
I've noticed that the move in Emerald works in the following way:
- Turn 0 (When used). The user regains health and falls asleep.
- Turn 1. The user is asleep.
- Turn 2. The user is asleep.
- Turn 3.The user wakes up and performs an attack if ordered.
Does it work in Generation I games in the same way? If yes, the description should be corrected. If no, a description for Generation III ought to be added. --Pokeresp 13:47, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
- In Generation I, you probably have to wait a turn before giving more orders, as that was how sleep worked at the time, but I think that change was made between I and II rather than II and III, I could be wrong, but I think that's when, but that was a change made with regards to sleep that effected Rest, rather than a direct change to Rest. That said, it probably should be mentioned. Gastlys mama 22:31, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
In Gen I it works as follows:
- Turn 0 (When used). The user regains health and falls asleep.
- Turn 1. The user is asleep.
- Turn 2. The user wakes up.
- Turn 3.The user can attack or perform any order. hfc2X 07:56, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
"Stacking" Status Problems
I think it should be noted that even if a Pokemon with Rest is already afflicted by a status condition (example, a wild Snorlax with Paralysis), Rest will nullify this condition in a strange case of being able to "stack" status ailments. I, uh, learned this the hard way. Recalcitrancy 22:17, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- It is already there.--RexRacer -talk 22:18, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
- ...durrr, I clearly can't read. Sorry. Recalcitrancy 20:18, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Safeguard
I was wondering... what happens if a Pokémon had used Safeguard and then uses rest? I think that the move fails, but I'm not sure... can anyone test it? hfc2X 07:57, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
- It just goes to sleep as normal. I was thinking the same thing, and tried it out earlier today. This was in generation II however, I haven't tested it in more recent games. - unsigned comment from RCF0900 (talk • contribs)
Early Bird
Is Rest affected by the Early Bird ability? --RiverAura 20:36, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- I'm pretty sure it is. That's why it's a good idea to have a Pokémon have both. (at least I think I've heard people say that.) ★Jo the Marten★ ಠ_ಠ 20:38, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
Yes, should the Pokemon use rest or be hit with a move that induces sleep then they will wake up when it's their turn to attack. Frozen Fennec 20:45, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
Frozen
Can Rest be used while frozen? ^_^ Delspencerdeltorro 18:45, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Sleep talk
What happens if Rest is called by Sleep Talk? Tk3141 21:08, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
- Edit: I see that in generation III and beyond it will fail. How about generation II? Tk3141 21:14, 24 March 2012 (UTC)
Dutch Name
The Dutch name for this move is probably Rust --- unsigned comment from Stomata (talk • contribs)
- What do you mean probably? Is this name from an official source (anime dub, manga translation, book, etc.)? --SnorlaxMonster 12:33, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
It's the best word to use as a translation, there is no other good word for the move
