Roar of Time (move) - Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokmon encyclopedia

From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

Roar of Time (Japanese: ときのほうこう Roar of Time) is a damage-dealing Dragon-type move introduced in Generation IV. It is the signature move of Dialga.

Effect

Generation IV to VII

Roar of Time inflicts damage and then forces the user to recharge during the next turn. Unless the move fails due to missing, type immunity, or is blocked by a protection move, the user will always have to recharge the next turn.

Generation VIII onwards

In Versions 1.0 to 1.2.1 of Pokémon Sword and Shield, Roar of Time could not be selected in a battle. Starting with Version 1.3.0, it is usable and functions the same as it did in previous generations.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus

Roar of Time's base power has been lowered to 120. Instead of forcing the user to recharge, it lowers the user's action speed.

If used by Origin Forme Dialga, Roar of Time's animation, base power, and accuracy are changed.

Trivia

• Despite its name, Roar of Time is not a sound-based move.
• A Devastating Drake based on Roar of Time has the highest base power of all Dragon-type moves.
• During Origin Forme Dialga and Arceus's boss battles in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, both can use a charged, undodgeable version of Roar of Time, but this attack can be cancelled by hitting them with Time and Mysterious Balms respectively, eventually stunning them.
