Check is a command in the Mother series.

Outside of battle

The Check command is used to look at objects that can't be spoken to. In Mother, it is accessed by pressing the A button to open the menu and selecting it. In the Mother 1+2 port and EarthBound, the L button acts as a shortcut to both talk and check. In Mother 3, it is no longer an option on the menu; instead, the L and A buttons both check objects and talk to people. When an object can be both checked and spoken to in the Mother 1+2 version of Mother, such as the Dragon, the game will default to the talk command.

In Battle

Ninten uses the check command on a Bag Lady.

The Check command is also a battle command in Mother. Using the check command in battle will reveal the enemy's Offense and Defense stats, their weaknesses and resistances, and, in the prototype and Mother 1+2, a description of them. In EarthBound this was replaced with Spy, and in Mother 3, it was replaced with Sniff.
