'''Bounce''' is a recurring spell throughout the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' franchise. It protects the caster from enemy attack spells, not by reducing their strength, but by throwing them back at the caster. The barrier is conjured up for 4 MP, and will last 6~9 turns.  Among the items that can emulate its effect includes the [[Zenithian shield]].

It must be noted that Bounce reflects '''all''' spells targeting the caster with only a select few exceptions; beneficial spells will be sent back to their conjurer as well as harmful ones. Self-targeting magic still takes affect, however, as well as [[Insulatle]], [[Kaclang]], [[Bazoom]], and [[Magic Barrier]].

[[Veronica (Dragon Quest XI)|Veronica]] and [[Rab]] will learn bounce at level 27 and 23, respectively, and can cast it for 6 MP. The spell no longer reflects party member magic, making it much more user-friendly, and also fails to block the [[Rubblerouser]] line of spells as well. Presumably this is because that line affects the ground directly beneath the target rather than the person in question.

Bounce is currently an enemy-only spell that can be cast by certain monsters and bosses in high-level stages. It has a range of up to two squares away from the caster, can be self-cast, and grants a barrier that reflects spells for three turns.
Wyrtoise can learn the perk '''Rare Bounce''' through [[Talent Blossoming]], while [[Nimzo]] learns it when he is fully awakened. It grants them a 20% chance to activate Bounce at the start of each action. [[Psaro the Manslayer]], [[Old King Mortamor]], and [[Santa Alena]] possess the perk '''Instant Bounce''', which activates Bounce at the start of battle for three turns. [[Maldragora]] the Worldmaker can learn it with 10 awakening points, while [[Slimecicle]] and [[Wulfspade]] can learn it through Talent Blossoming or their character builder respectively. [[Alphyn]] can learn the perk '''Instant Spell Reflect''' with 10 awakening points, which activates Bounce at battle start for two turns. [[Famed Schleiman Tank]] and [[King Godwyn|King Godwyn's True Form]] can learn the perk '''Spell Reflect Shield''' with 30 awakening points, which activates Bounce at battle start for two turns. Omega also possess the perk '''Heartless One''', which grants it Bounce and increases its evasion for three turns at battle start.
