Confusion Effect

Confusion In-Game.jpg

Attacks straight in front of the user, dealing damage to opposing Pokemon and shoving it. If an opposing Pokemon shoved by this move hits an obstacle, it receives increased damage from this move and is left unable to act for a short time. If the opposing Pokemon is currently guard-swapped, it is not shoved but receives increased damage from this move and is left unable to act for a short time.

How to Use Confusion

Displace Enemies

Pokemon UNITE - Mr. Mime Shoving Enemies Using Confusion

Utilize Confusion's knockback effect to displace enemies whether you're escaping, shoving enemies towards your allies, or protecting your allies.

Push Enemies Towards Obstacles

Pokemon UNITE - Mr. Mime Stunning Greninja Using Confusion

Pushing enemies towards obstacles like walls using Confusion stuns them. This works with Light Screen, Barrier, or other moves like Rock Tomb. Try to find a good angle to shove enemies towards nearby obstacles, allowing you to set up kills for your team.

Use on Guard Swap Target

Pokemon UNITE - Mr. Mime Stunning Blissey Using Confusion

An alternative way to stun enemies using Confusion is by using it on a target inflicted with Guard Swap. This is a sure way to stun targets but only works on a single enemy and does not shove them.
