A Pokémon with this Ability can always [[escape|flee]] and use {{m|Teleport}} successfully, regardless of {{cat|trapping moves}} and {{cat|Trapping Abilities|Abilities}} (including {{m|Ingrain}} and {{cat|binding moves}}). This Ability has no effect on [[recall|switching out]]. Run Away does not guarantee escape in the [[Battle Pyramid]], but if a Pokémon with this Ability successfully flees, this escape will be credited to Run Away.

In Generations III and IV, when the player's Pokémon with Run Away faints in a wild battle, if the player attempts to flee instead of sending out another Pokémon, they will escape without fail. Fron Generation V onward, escape is no longer guaranteed in this situation.
