Draining Kiss Effect

Draining Kiss In-Game.jpg

Has the user attack nearby opposing Pokemon with an energy-draining kiss. Each opposing Pokemon hit by the kiss receives damage and releases an air kiss. These air kisses will travel to the user's nearby ally Pokemon with the lowest HP and restore that Pokemon's HP. If no ally Pokemon are near the user, the air kisses will return to the user and restore its HP.

How to Use Draining Kiss

Catch Multiple Targets

Try to use Draining Kiss on as many targets as you can to maximize the move's healing effect since the effect triggers for each enemy hit. This goes for both opponents and wild Pokemon.

Use on Altaria and Swablu Camps for Quick Healing

If you need to heal quickly without going back to base, use Draining Kiss on Altaria and Swablu camps to restore a decent amount of HP. However, be sure there are no nearby allies since the healing goes to the ally with the lowest HP. This is useful when your HP is low and need to get back to a fight.

Support Allies in the Frontlines

It's best to stay close to your allies who are in the frontlines during teamfights, and use Draining Kiss to heal them and damage enemies simultaneously. Note that only the ally with the lowest HP will be healed by Draining Kiss.
