Symbiosis will not trigger if an ally's item is moved to a different Pokémon; this means that Symbiosis will not be triggered by the effect of {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Trick}}, {{m|Switcheroo}}, {{m|Bestow}}, {{a|Magician}}, {{a|Pickpocket}}, Symbiosis, or {{DL|In-battle effect item|Sticky Barb}}. | Symbiosis will not trigger if an ally's item is moved to a different Pokémon; this means that Symbiosis will not be triggered by the effect of {{m|Thief}}, {{m|Covet}}, {{m|Trick}}, {{m|Switcheroo}}, {{m|Bestow}}, {{a|Magician}}, {{a|Pickpocket}}, Symbiosis, or {{DL|In-battle effect item|Sticky Barb}}. | ||

If a [[Gem]] was consumed in response to the start of a move and the item received through Symbiosis is another Gem, it will not also consume the new Gem. Otherwise, if a consumable item is received through Symbiosis and the Pokémon can currently consume it, it will use it immediately. | ||
