'''Lock-On''' (Japanese: '''ロックオン''' ''Lock-On'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]].
 
==Effect==
After the user has used Lock-On and until its effect ends (see table below), any accuracy check it makes against the same target will succeed; this means moves will not miss, even if the target is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}. Although this effect means moves will not "miss", they can still fail for other reasons (such as being {{m|Protect}}ed, or {{m|Fake Out}} being used outside the first turn) or be redirected by {{cat|move-drawing moves}} and {{cat|move-drawing Abilities|Abilities}}. The damaging turn of {{m|Future Sight}} and {{m|Doom Desire}} counts as an accuracy check.
 
Lock-On will fail if the target is behind a {{OBP|substitute|doll}}.

<small>*: This move bypasses {{stat|accuracy}} checks to always hit, unless the target is in the [[semi-invulnerable turn]] of a move such as {{m|Dig}} or {{m|Fly}}.</small>
 
===Generation II===
In this generation only, this effect is implemented as a status attached only to the target, so any Pokémon who attacks the target next (not just the user) will receive the benefit of this effect. Also, when a move is used, this effect is checked after the following conditions: if {{m|Dream Eater}} is used against a non-{{status|sleep}}ing target; if Protect or {{m|Detect}} is active; or if Dream Eater, {{m|Absorb}}, {{m|Mega Drain}}, {{m|Leech Life}}, or {{m|Giga Drain}} are targeting a Pokémon with a {{OBP|substitute|doll}}. Therefore, if a move fails in those cases, Lock-On's effect will remain in place.
 
In this generation only, this effect will not allow the moves {{m|Earthquake}}, {{m|Fissure}}, or {{m|Magnitude}} to hit a Pokémon in the semi-invulnerable turn of {{m|Fly}}; the move will miss and Lock-On's effect ends. ([[Type]] immunity is checked before Lock-On's effect, so this mainly applies to {{p|Mew}} or a non-{{type|Flying}} Pokémon that calls Fly {{cat|moves that call other moves|indirectly}} or via {{m|Mimic}} or {{m|Sketch}}.)
 
===Generations III===
Only one Pokémon at a time can have the effect of Lock-On or {{m|Mind Reader}} applied to a given target. If another Pokémon uses one of these moves on the same target, the effect will be overwritten for the previous Pokémon and be associated with the new Pokémon instead.
 
Lock-On can be used as the first move of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], causing {{m|Octazooka}}, {{m|Superpower}}, {{m|Thunder}}, {{m|Tri Attack}}, and {{m|Zap Cannon}} to score double the normal appeal if used in the next turn.
 
===Generations IV===
Like in Generation III, only one Pokémon at a time can have the effect of Lock-On or {{m|Mind Reader}} applied to a given target.
 
In this generation only, [[List of glitches (Generation IV)#Protection bypass glitch|due to a glitch]], if a move receives the effect of Lock-On while the target is under the effect of [[protection]], the move will ignore the protection with inverted accuracy. This does not apply to [[One-hit knockout move|OHKO moves]].
 
Lock-On can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], causing a [[one-hit knockout move]] to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.
 
===Generation V===
Starting in [[Generation V]], multiple Pokémon can have the effect of Lock-On or Mind Reader on the same target. Lock-On will not fail if another Pokémon has used Lock-On or Mind Reader on the same target; it will only fail if the user already has the effect active on its current target.
 
===Generation VII===
If powered up by a [[Normalium Z]] into Z-Lock-On, the user's {{stat|Speed}} stat is raised by one stage.
