Clamp inflicts damage and traps the target for 2-5 turns, damaging the target at the end of each turn. There is a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 2 turns, a 37.5% chance that it will attack for 3 turns, a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 4 turns, and a 12.5% chance that it will attack for 5 turns. Although only the first hit can be a [[critical hit]], each consecutive turn will deal the same amount of damage. Whilst the target is trapped, it will be unable to attack, and if the user of Clamp strikes before the target, when used, the target will also be unable to attack during the same turn. Clamp will prevent the target from attacking even if it hits a {{ | Clamp inflicts damage and traps the target for 2-5 turns, damaging the target at the end of each turn.

Damage inflicted by Clamp's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage. If the user switches out before the turn duration ends, the target will be unable to attack during that turn. If the target switches out before the turn duration ends, Clamp will automatically be used against the incoming Pokémon, deducting an additional PP from the move. If at such a time Clamp has 0 PP, Clamp will still be used against the incoming Pokémon. After that use, {{DL|List of glitches (Generation I)|Struggle bypassing|the current PP of Clamp will roll over to 63}}, and full [[PP Up]]s will be applied to it. | Damage inflicted by Clamp's continuing duration is done after recurrent damage.
