Priority: Difference between revisions

{{m|Pursuit}} is a special exception to the general rule of priority, due to its effect. [[Recall|Switching]] fundamentally happens before any moves can be performed, but when Pursuit is targetting a Pokémon that switches out, it will hit the Pokémon before it can switch, meaning that it will go before any other move, no matter its priority. If multiple Pursuits are targetting the same Pokémon and the Pokémon switches out, if the Pokémon [[fainting|faints]] before all of the Pursuits have executed, the remaining Pursuits will execute at their normal priority.

Move priority is not affected by the effects of {{m|Trick Room}}, which only reverses the Speed-resolved order of moves within a priority bracket; moves with higher priority are still performed before ones with lower priority. Some [[held item]]s and {{Abilities}} also affect a move's resolution within its priority bracket (ignoring even Trick Room), but not the priority itself. The items {{DL|Incense|Full Incense}} and {{DL|In-battle effect item|Lagging Tail}} and the Ability {{a|Stall}} cause the affected Pokémon to go last in its priority bracket, while the items {{DL|In-battle effect item|Quick Claw}} and [[Custap Berry]] cause the user to go first in its priority bracket.
