What moves can you use to give yourself status conditions? Only relying on yourself. I can only think of toxic and burn orb, but I don't want to use items, I want to see if there is something else. Magic bouncing onto yourself won't work if you think of that, it uses other Pokemon.

Does rest count?
synchronize?
Synchronize gives another Pokémon a status condition, not itself.
@Jimmy was thinking about it another way, but it does not matter anyway :/

¡As of gen 7!

I assume you are Talking About Non-Volatile status conditions. If so, the only status condition you can receive from yourself is Sleep, via Rest. :P


If you include other status conditions, here is what you can inflict upon yourself:

  • The moves Outrage and Thrash, and HP restoring Berries may inflict Confusion (the berries if your Pokémon doesn't like the taste)

  • You may inflict Perish Song by using Perish Song

  • You may inflict Bracing by using Endure

  • You may inflict Aqua Ring by using Aqua Ring

  • You may inflict Charging Turn by using Sky Attack, Solar Beam, Solar Blade, or Razor Wind under certain conditions

  • You can inflict Center of Attention by using Rage Powder or Follow Me

  • You can Inflict Defense Curl by using Defense Curl

  • You can Inflict Rooting by using Ingrain

  • You can inflict Magnetic Levitation by using Magnet Rise

  • You can inflict protection by using Protect, Detect, King's Shield, Spiky Shield, or Baneful Bunker.

  • You can inflict Recharging by using Hyper Beam, Frenzy Plant, Blast Burn, Hydro Cannon, Giga Impact, Rock Wrecker, or Roar of Time

  • You can inflict Semi-Invulnerable by using Fly, Dig, Dive, Bounce, Phantom Force, Shadow Force, or Sky Drop

  • You can inflict Substitute by using Substitute

  • You can inflict Taking Aim with Lock-On and Mind Reader

  • You can inflict Withdrawing with Skull Bash

Flame Orb and Toxic Orb are the most reliable ways to Burn or Badly Poison yourself, by the way. :P
