Shadow Tag prevents all foes from [[Escape|fleeing]] (including {{m|Teleport}}) or [[Recall|switching out]] while the Pokémon with this Ability is on the field.
Shadow Tag [[Escape prevention|prevents]] all adjacent opponents from [[Escape|fleeing]] (including {{m|Teleport}}) or [[Recall|switching out]] while the Pokémon with this Ability is on the field. However, if a Pokémon with Shadow Tag switches in, opponents that decided to switch out at the beginning of that turn but have not yet moved will still switch out.


Using {{m|Baton Pass}}, {{m|U-turn}}, {{m|Volt Switch}}, or {{m|Parting Shot}} will still cause the Pokémon to switch out. Having the Ability {{a|Run Away}} or holding a [[Smoke Ball]] allows the Pokémon to flee or Teleport, but not switch.

If the player does not switch out a fainted Pokémon and instead attempts to flee, they will not be affected by a wild Pokémon with Shadow Tag.
