Lock-On (Japanese: ロックオン Lock-On) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation II.
Effect
Generation II
The next move made by the user of this move against the target will not miss, even if the target uses a move with a semi-invulnerable turn like Fly. If the target switches out, the effect of Lock-On wears off. This effect can be passed by Baton Pass.
Lock-On does not allow the user to bypass protection moves.
Metronome ignores the effect of Lock-On in favor of its random targeting.
Lock-On's accuracy is 100%.
Generation III
Lock-On's effect now lasts until the end of the next turn rather than until the user makes its next move.
While Lock-On prevents the user's move from missing if it targets the affected Pokémon, it does not prevent its target being changed by move-drawing moves and Abilities.
Lock-On can also be used as part of a Pokémon Contest combination, causing certain moves (Superpower, Thunder, Tri Attack and Zap Cannon) to have their base appeal doubled.
Generation IV onward
The move Lock-On now bypasses accuracy checks to always hit, unless the target is in the semi-invulnerable turn of a move such as Dig or Fly.
Lock-On can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing a one-hit knockout move to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.
If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Lock-On, the user's Speed stat is raised by one stage.
