Gemshine is a damage-dealing Fairy-type move. It is one of the signature moves of Carbright.

Description

The user focuses energy into the gem on its forehead, making it shine a brilliant light. The power and effect of this move changes based on the Arcane Gemstone the user is holding.

Effects

The type, base power and secondary effects of Gemshine change under the following circumstances.

When holding an Arcane Ruby

Gemshine becomes a Fire-type move with a base power of 120.

On the turn it is selected, Gemshine raises a barrier of red light which reduces damage from both physical and special moves by half (or by a multiplier of 2732/4096 to the user and all allies in case of a battle other than a single battle) and begins to charge. This barrier can be active at the same time as Reflect, Light Screen or Aurora Veil, but the damage reduction effects do not stack. As with other barrier effects, Gemshine's barrier does not reduce damage done through confusion, critical hits, or moves that deal direct damage - and likewise, it can be broken through the effects of Brick Break, Defog, Psychic Fangs, Raging Bull, or the Screen Cleaner ability, and Pokémon with the Infiltrator can ignore its effects while attacking.

On the following turn, the move will inflict damage, and the barrier fades away immediately.

When holding an Arcane Topaz

Gemshine becomes a Ground-type move with a base power of 45.

The move hits two times, and the second hit has an increased critical hit ratio.

When holding an Arcane Emerald

Gemshine becomes a Flying-type move with a base power of 35.

In addition to the damage it inflicts, the move binds the target for 3-5 turns, inflicting damage equivalent to 1/6 of the target's maximum HP at the end of each turn.

When under the effect of Draconic Trance

Gemshine's base power increases to 100 and it inflicts damage with no secondary effect. The move's type is determined by the Arcane Gemstone held by the user:

• If no Arcane Gemstone is held, the move is Fairy-type.
• If holding an Arcane Ruby, the move is Fire-type.
• If holding an Arcane Topaz, the move is Ground-type.
• If holding an Arcane Emerald, the move is Flying-type.

This move can only be successfully used by Carbright (or a Pokémon that has transformed into Carbright), and will fail otherwise. Additionally, it cannot be called on by moves which call other moves. When used by a Pokémon that transformed into Carbright, it will function as though the user is not holding an Arcane Gemstone, regardless of its hold item.
