A '''Rotation Battle''' (Japanese: '''ローテーションバトル''' ''Rotation Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]] featuring three to six {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} per {{pkmn|Trainer}}, with one Pokémon from each side battling at a time. It appears in the [[Generation]] {{gen|V}} and {{gen|VI}} games. It was introduced in {{game|Black and White|s}} and is predominantly showcased in Black.

A '''Rotation Battle''' (Japanese: '''ローテーションバトル''' ''Rotation Battle'') is a type of [[Pokémon battle]] featuring 3 to 6 Pokémon per Trainer, with one Pokémon from each side battling at a time. It was introduced in {{game|Black and White|s}} and is predominantly showcased in Black.  


A Rotation Battle consists of three Pokémon outside of their Poké Balls, similar to a [[Triple Battle]], but only one Pokémon can attack at a time. Unlike switching or moving positions in a Triple Battle, rotating Pokémon is a free action, meaning both players may rotate and attack in the same turn.

When a Rotation Battle begins, the first Pokémon able to battle in the player's party will be sent out to the primary position. The second member of the party will be counterclockwise from the first, while the third will be clockwise from the first.

===Locations===
===Rotating===
====In Pokémon Black====
Rotating can be done during both the player's and the opponent's turns and has a [[priority]] of +6. Rotating is different to switching in that it doesn't use up a turn, reset [[status condition]]s like {{status|confusion}} and {{status|bad poison}}, or reset Ability counters like {{a|Slow Start}}. Rotating Pokémon are not hit by {{m|Pursuit}} nor are they affected by {{a|Shadow Tag}} or {{a|Arena Trap}}. Rotating does not trigger Abilities that trigger upon switching such as {{a|Natural Cure}}.
This type of battle can be found in the following locations:
*[[Charles]] in [[Driftveil City]]  
*An {{tc|Ace Trainer}} on {{rt|7|Unova}}
*Two Ace Trainers in [[Opelucid City]]
*A {{tc|Roughneck}} and a {{tc|Backpacker}} in [[Black City]]


===Active Pokémon===
Only the active Pokémon plays any part in the battle. Moves and Abilities that affect more than one Pokémon will only affect the opponent's active Pokémon, and Abilities like {{a|Flower Gift}} will only activate if the user is active. Status damage is not received while a Pokémon is inactive.

===Rotating===
====Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
Rotating can be done during both the player's and the opponent's turns and has a priority of +6. Rotating is different to switching in that it doesn't use up a turn, reset [[status ailment]]s like {{status|confusion}} and {{status|bad poison}}, or reset Ability counters like {{a|Slow Start}}. Rotating Pokémon are not hit by {{m|Pursuit}} nor are they affected by {{a|Shadow Tag}} or {{a|Arena Trap}}. Rotating does not trigger Abilities that trigger upon switching such as {{a|Natural Cure}}.

===Active Pokémon===

Only the active Pokémon plays any part in the battle. Moves and Abilities that affect more than one Pokémon will only affect the opponent's active Pokémon, and Abilities like {{a|Flower Gift}} will only activate if the user is active. Status damage is not received while a Pokémon is inactive.
