Another approach is to pressure the opponent to call back their Pokémon, by using [[status move]]s with disadvantageous effects that can be removed through switching (such as {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Perish Song}}, or {{m|Yawn}}).
+Originally referred to as a pseudo-[[#Hazer|hazer]], it has since been shorted to PHazer, and now commonly formatted simply phazer.
