Dragon Pause is a troll-fictional pokemon move born in the /vp/ (Pokémon) board of 4chan.

Origin

On August 13 of 2012, an user posted a ‘Competitive Pokémon Moveset’, switching ‘Dragon Pulse’ (an actual move) for Dragon Pause. Then, the thread derailed parodying ‘Dragon Pause’ and how the move works. ^[1]

Dragon Pause

The turn Dragon Pause is used, the user pauses. At the first of the next turn, all Dragon type pokémon restore all their HP, but they can’t do any move.

Usage

It is usually used to troll people when they share their movesets, saying things like “Remove that Outrage, use Dragon Pause instead”.
