Acupressure is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation IV.

In-Game Description

The user applies pressure to stress points, sharply boosting one of its or its allies' stats.

Effect

Acupressure chooses one of the target's stats at random and raises it by two stages. It can raise either the target's Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, Speed, or accuracy stat but will not attempt to raise a stat that is already maximized, meaning that the move will fail if all stats are maximized. Acupressure will also fail if the target is suppressed.

If the user is rallied, Acupressure increases the user's critical hit ratio by two stages.
