Guard Swap is a non-damaging Psychic-type move. It is a signature move of the Chelonite evolutionary line.

Effect

Guard Split switches the user's Defense and Special Defense stat stages with those of the target Pokémon. Since this changes stat stages, the stat stages can be passed via Baton Pass.

Guard Swap bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.

Description

Description The user employs its psychic power to switch changes to its Defense and Sp. Def with the target.
