Encore can be used successfully any turn after the opponent went to sleep using {{m|Rest}} as long as it doesn't use Sleep Talk or wake up; moreover, the duration of Encore also takes into account the turns that the target spends sleeping without doing anything. Encore also works if the opponent had used Rest while at maximum HP.

If the target has {{a|Truant}}, Encore will still work, forcing it to be locked into the last used move.

Encore fails if it targets a [[Dynamax]] Pokémon. Dynamax Pokémon that are affected by Encore (due to being inflicted with it before Dynamaxing) can use moves regardless of Encore. If a Pokémon's Dynamax recently ended, and Encore is then used against it before it can make another move, it will be forced to use the base move that powered up into its most recent Max Move.
