Follow Me is a non-damaging Normal-type move.

Effect

Follow Me makes the user the center of attention, forcing opposing Pokémon to use its move on the user rather than the intended target (even if it was a friendly target, unless the move was Acupressure or Helping Hand) for the rest of the turn during double battles. It does not affect the ally.

Follow Me cannot draw multi-turn moves like Fly. If the center of attention is taken into the air by Sky Drop, it no longer draws moves, even moves that can hit it while in the air.

Follow Me draws Electric- and Water-type moves even if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod or Storm Drain is on the field. If another Pokémon on the same team is already the center of attention, the first user takes priority; if the first user is switched or faints, the attack will be drawn to the next center of attention.

Due to only having a priority of +3, Follow Me cannot divert Snatch or Pursuit (when used on a switching ally). Follow Me has no effect on moves which hit multiple Pokémon in a battle.

Description

Description The user draws attention to itself, making all targets take aim only at the user.
