Protects all Pokémon on the user's side of the field from damaging moves that can target multiple Pokémon (even those used by an ally that can strike all Pokémon on the field). Will also block these moves in Single Battles. Cannot block status moves that target multiple Pokémon. Can be used consecutively without failing, but does decrease the chance of success for Protect, Detect, Endure, King's Shield, and Spiky Shield. Feint, Hyperspace Fury, Hyperspace Hole, and Phantom Force lift the effect of Wide Guard from the target's team when used successfully. Feint and Shadow Force lift the effect of Wide Guard from all allies, if they hit an ally.
