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 (Retaliate) from the original version of DQVII - however, unlike the latter ability, it only applies to physical attacks, not breath attacks and spells.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age
Sobering Slap can be learned by Sylvando through his Litheness panel for 8 points, but has already been learned by him when he joins the party. It can remove sleep, confusion, beguilement, or paralysis from one party member for 4 MP.
Trivia
The two different versions of this technique are distinguished in Japanese by the use of hiragana for the counter ability in the remakes of Dragon Quest VII, and katakana for the restorative skill from IX - XI.
