If the target is {{type|Flying}}, has the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, or is under the effect of {{m|Magnet Rise}} or {{m|Telekinesis}}, Smack Down applies its effect to that Pokémon, causing that target to become [[grounded]] (vulnerable to {{type|Ground}} moves, affected by [[terrain]] and {{a|Arena Trap}}) until that target switches out. Smack Down also removes the effects of {{m|Magnet Rise}} and {{m|Telekinesis}}. The effect of Smack Down is not applied if the target is behind a {{m|substitute}} or under the effect of {{m|Ingrain}}.

Smack Down can hit Pokémon during the semi-invulnerable turns of {{m|Fly}}, {{m|Bounce}}, and {{m|Sky Drop}}. If it hits a Pokémon that is using Fly or Bounce, it will knock it down, cancelling the move; if it hits a Pokémon using or affected by Sky Drop, it will not be knocked down. A Pokémon hit with Smack Down can still use these moves on subsequent turns.
