Calm Mind is a Psychic-type status move with no power or accuracy value, as it does not deal direct damage. It raises the user's Special Attack and Special Defense by one stage each when used. Calm Mind is often employed to enhance a Pokémon's special capabilities, making it a valuable move for special sweepers and bulky special attackers. This move is particularly effective in setting up for subsequent powerful special moves and increasing resilience against special attacks. It is a staple in both casual and competitive play, especially for Pokémon with high special stats.
