If one of the player's Pokémon [[fainting|faints]] in a battle against another Trainer, it must be recalled. If it faints in a battle with a wild Pokémon, there is also the option of [[escape|fleeing]]. If fleeing fails, another Pokémon must take the first one's place. Trainers can voluntarily recall their Pokémon by selecting another in their [[party]] to take its place. Moves such as {{m|Whirlwind}}, {{m|Roar}}, and {{m|Dragon Tail}} cause the target to be forcibly recalled; {{m|U-turn}}, {{m|Volt Switch}}, and {{m|Baton Pass}} let the user return to the party. Unless the Pokémon has been fainted, it will be eligible to return to battle later. | If one of the player's Pokémon [[fainting|faints]] in a battle against another Trainer, it must be recalled.

Just as moves exist that can cause a Pokémon to be recalled, there exist those that prevent recall. {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, and {{m|Block}} (among others) prevent a Pokémon from leaving battle, as do the Abilities {{a|Shadow Tag}} and {{a|Arena Trap}}. These traps can be countered by moves that allow escape, or alternatively an Ability such as {{a|Run Away}}. | Just as moves exist that can cause a Pokémon to be recalled, there exist those that prevent recall. {{m|Mean Look}}, {{m|Spider Web}}, and {{m|Block}} (among others) prevent a Pokémon from leaving battle, as do the Abilities {{a|Shadow Tag}} and {{a|Arena Trap}}.

Electing to recall a Pokémon has a [[priority]] of +6. This means it will come before all moves, except {{m|Pursuit}} if used on an opponent switching out and {{m|Helping Hand}} when used by a faster Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Prankster}}. If a Trainer recalls his Pokémon during the middle of a battle, the new one will "lose" a turn; this is because switching is the Trainer's move for that round of battle. However, if a Pokémon faints, no turn will be lost when the new Pokémon is sent out. | Electing to recall a Pokémon has a [[priority]] of +6.

[[Experience]] will be fairly divided among Pokémon that participated in a battle against an opponent that has not switched out (variations may exist due to [[experience-affecting item]] and, in Generation V, Pokémon gaining more experience the larger the level difference). Pokémon that faint do not gain any experience; however, if they are revived before the Pokémon they fought is defeated or switches out, they will still gain experience. | [[Experience]] will be fairly divided among Pokémon that participated in a battle against an opponent that has not switched out (variations may exist due to [[experience-affecting item]]s, being traded, and, in Generation V, Pokémon gaining more experience the larger the level difference).

In | In Single Battles<!--Rotation Battles?--> against [[non-player character]] Trainers (excluding [[Battle Tower]] Trainers), if the ''Battle Style'' in the ''[[Options]]'' menu is set as "Shift" ("Switch" in Generation VI), the player is given the option to recall after one of the opponent's Pokémon is defeated, with a notification of what the opponent's next Pokémon will be. The new Pokémon will not lose a turn, and experience will not be shared. In [[Double Battle]]s or [[Triple Battle]]s, or if "Set" is selected as the ''Battle Style'', this choice is not present. | ||

It appears as though a Pokémon can actually refuse, or even dodge a Trainer's recall command. While this usually is a result of {{DL|Level|disobedience}}, it can sometimes be a sign that the Pokémon is concerned for its Trainer, such as in ''[[Snow Way Out!]]'', or another person or Pokémon, as seen in ''[[BW029|Cottonee in Love!]]''. | It appears as though a Pokémon can actually refuse, or even dodge a Trainer's recall command.

Usually during [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}s, there are rules preventing [[Gym Leader]]s from switching their Pokémon, but challengers are allowed to make substitutions if needed. It is not uncommon for {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to recall their Pokémon to cure {{status|confusion}}. | |||
During [[Contest Battle]]s, {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s are never allowed to recall their Pokémon. When a Pokémon is [[Fainting|unable to continue battling]], [[Raoul Contesta|the]] [[Mr. Sukizo|judging]] [[Nurse Joy|panel]] will rule Battle Off, putting an end to the battle and declaring the Coordinator with the remaining Pokémon as the winner of the match. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
* In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games, if the player chooses to switch their Pokémon when the opponent is about to send out a new Pokémon, the opponent is shown sending out their Pokémon before the player switches their Pokémon. This was changed in all later Generations, instead showing the player's switch before the opponent sends out their next Pokémon. | |||
