Sobering Slap is the name of two distinct abilities in the Dragon Quest series.
In Dragon Quest IX, X, and XI, it is a restorative ability that slaps an ally out of confusion or wakes them up (much like Rude Awakening from DQVII). In addition to curing confusion and sleep, it also cures beguilement and paralysis in X and XI.
In the 3DS version of Dragon Quest VII, it prepares the user to counter a physical attack when attacked. It is similar to Follow Suit (known as retaliate) from the original version of DQVII - however, unlike the latter ability, it only applies to physical attacks, not breath attacks and spells.
