==Effect==
==Effect==
Mat Block protects all Pokémon on the user's side of the field from any moves except [[status move]]s for that turn. Unlike {{m|Protect}}, this move is not an increased priority move. Similar to {{m|Fake Out}}, Mat Block will only work if used on the first turn after the Pokémon enters the field; the Pokémon must be switched out and back in to be able to use Mat Block again.
