Telekinesis (Japanese: テレキネシス Telekinesis) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation V.

Effect

Telekinesis makes the target immune to Ground-type moves and makes all other move types hit the target regardless of accuracy and evasion; this does not include OHKO moves. This effect lasts for three turns. It will fail if Gravity is in effect, and if Gravity is used while Telekinesis is in effect, Gravity will supersede it. If it is used against a Pokémon holding an Iron Ball, it will have no effect even though the attack will appear to succeed.
