Detailed Effect

Uproar deals damage for 3 turns and no Pokémon can fall asleep

for the entire duration and are woken up during the first turn.
Pokémon with the ability Soundproof are immune to this effect as Uproar is a sound-based move.
Even if the user has the ability Mold Breaker, Uproar will not affect Pokémon with the ability Soundproof.
The Uproar effect depends on the first turn of its use. It will fail completely against a

Ghost -type Pokémon, but it will stay active even if it does not hit due to the target being protected by moves such as Protect.
