This move causes the "Plague" field condition to appear on the field, which has the following effects:

All battlers lose 6.25% of their maximum HP at the end of each turn.

All battlers also have a 25% chance of being poisoned and a 5% chance of being badly poisoned at the end of each turn.

Bug- and Steel-type Pokémon are immune to the above effects. Additionally, the Special Defense of all Bug-types in battle is increased by 50%.

This move's effects last for five turns, including turn of use. Since these effects are considered an "entity" field condition, they will be replaced by the effects of any other "entity" field condition, while overlapping with the effects of "terrestrial" and "atmospheric" field conditions. This move's effects last for eight turns if the user is holding a Spotted Rock.
