Detailed Effect

Lunar Dance causes the user to faint and switches in another Pokémon at the end of the turn.
The switched in Pokémon will be fully healed, PP restored and cured of any major status condition.
Lunar Dance applies to the field position the user uses it in and will not activate if the new Pokémon is at full HP

and has no major status condition.
Lunar Dance and Healing Wish can be applied at the same time.

In Gen 4 Lunar Dance can not be stolen by Snatch and the user immediately faints instead of waiting until the end of the turn.
