Now, when in battle against a Trainer, Whirlwind will force a switch with a randomly chosen Pokémon from the Trainer's party. If there isn't another Pokémon, Whirlwind will fail. It also has a priority of -1. If two Pokémon use Whirlwind at the same time, the faster one will fail and the slower one will switch it out. Its accuracy is 100% from Generation II on. Additionally, it now can hit Pokémon using {{m|Fly}}. | Now, when in battle against a Trainer, Whirlwind will force a switch with a randomly chosen Pokémon from the Trainer's party.

Whirlwind will fail when used against Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Suction Cups}} or rooted by {{m|Ingrain}}. In a Trainer battle, rather than switching out to a random Pokémon in the party, it switches out to the next Pokémon in line that has not fainted. In Generation III Whirlwind has a priority of -5, which was decreased to -6 in Generation IV. If two Pokémon use Whirlwind at the same time, instead of the faster one failing, the faster one will go first and switch the slower one out. | Whirlwind will fail when used against Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Suction Cups}} or rooted by {{m|Ingrain}}.
