Flatter is a Dark-type move that does not cause direct damage; hence, it has no power value associated with it. Flatter has 100% accuracy, ensuring it successfully hits the target. When used, Flatter confuses the target Pokémon but also raises its Special Attack by one stage. This can make the move a double-edged sword, as it boosts the opponent's offensive capability while inflicting confusion. The move is often strategically used in doubles battles to manipulate the battlefield or in combination with abilities and items that take advantage of an opponent's confusion.
