Present

Normal

Summary

Present is a Normal-type move with variable power and 90% accuracy. When used, it has a 40% chance to deal 40 damage, a 30% chance to deal 80 damage, a 10% chance to deal 120 damage, and an unusual 20% chance to heal the target by 1/4 of their maximum HP. This move is unique in that it can either harm or heal the target, adding an element of unpredictability. Present is famously associated with the Pokémon Delibird, which resembles a Santa-like figure delivering gifts, fitting the move's theme of giving surprises.
