Price
Effect
When held by a Pokémon, it boosts the Pokémon's Speed by 50%, but only allows the use of the first move selected. This effect resets when the holder is withdrawn.
Generation IV
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, due to a glitch, if a Pokémon uses U-turn and switches into a Pokémon holding a Choice Scarf that also knows U-turn, that Pokémon will be locked into U-turn. This was fixed in subsequent games.
Generation V to VI
From Generation V onward, if a Pokémon is already locked into a move due to a held Choice Scarf, if the held Choice Scarf is removed while its effect is negated, the Pokémon will be affected by the Choice item lock glitch.
Generation VII
If a Pokémon holding a Choice Scarf uses a move other than the one it's locked into (such as through Instruct or Dancer), the move will fail and no PP will be deducted.
