==Effect==
==Effect==
Dragon Tail inflicts damage. Additionally, it will automatically end wild Pokémon battles or, in a Trainer battle, it will switch out the opposing Pokémon to the next Pokémon in line that has not fainted. If using this move causes the user to faint (such as if the target is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Rocky Helmet}} or has the ability {{a|Rough Skin}} or {{a|Iron Barbs}}), the target will not be forced to switch. Like {{m|Roar}} and {{m|Whirlwind}}, Dragon Tail also has decreased priority.
Dragon Tail inflicts damage and has decreased [[priority]]. In a Trainer battle, it will [[recall|switch out]] the target to the next Pokémon in line that has not fainted (if there is one). In a wild Pokémon battle with a single wild Pokémon, this move will cause the battle to end if the user's level is equal or greater than the target's; however, if there are multiple wild Pokémon in the battle, it works the same as in a Trainer battle.


Dragon Tail will fail to end wild Pokémon battles or switch out the opposing Trainer's Pokémon if it has the Ability {{a|Suction Cups}}, is under the effects of {{m|Ingrain}}, or has {{m|Substitute}} set up. It will also fail to end wild Pokémon battles if the user is at a lower level than the foe. In a Trainer battle, it will fail to switch out the opposing Pokémon if there isn't another to take its place.
If using this move causes the user to faint (such as if the target is holding a [[Rocky Helmet]] or has the Ability {{a|Rough Skin}} or {{a|Iron Barbs}}), the target will not be forced to switch.


If a battle with wild Pokémon ever involves more than one Pokémon on each side of the battle, Dragon Tail will not end the battle if used by the player's Pokémon against a wild Pokémon, but if a wild Pokémon uses it against the player, it will force the target to switch with another Pokémon in the Trainer's party, regardless of the target's level.
Dragon Tail will fail to end wild Pokémon battles or switch out the opposing Trainer's Pokémon if the target has the Ability {{a|Suction Cups}}, is under the effects of {{m|Ingrain}}, or has {{m|Substitute}} set up.


Dragon Tail can be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Contest Spectacular combination]], with the user gaining extra three appeal points if any of the moves {{m|Spikes}}, {{m|Stealth Rock}} or {{m|Toxic Spikes}} was used in the prior turn.
