Pursuit (move)

Pursuit (Japanese: おいうち Pursuing Attack) is a damage-dealing Dark-type attack.

Effect
Pursuit inflicts damage. If the target tries switching out normally on the turn this move is used, Pursuit gains a priority of +7 and damages the target with a doubled base power of 100. This effect does not activate if the target switches out through Baton Pass.

If a Puppet holding Special Bloomers or Choice Ribbon uses Pursuit against an opponent switching out on their first attacking turn, the Pursuit user can select a new move next turn.

Pursuit can also be used as part of a Puppet Contest combination, with the user gaining extra two appeal points if the attack Nasty Plot or Screech was used in the prior turn.
