Follow Me (Japanese: このゆびとまれ Stay With This Finger) is a non-damaging Normal-type move introduced in Generation III.
Effect
Generations III and IV
Follow Me has a priority of +3 and makes the user the center of attention, forcing opposing Pokémon to use their moves on the user rather than the intended target (even if it was a friendly target, unless it is a move that cannot target an opponent such as Acupressure or Helping Hand) for the rest of the turn. If a move cannot target the center of attention, it will be used on its intended target. It does not affect allies.
If the center of attention faints or switches out, it no longer draws moves.
Follow Me can draw moves with a charging turn (such as Fly and Solar Beam) if it is used on the turn the move would hit. Follow Me will draw the moves Future Sight and Doom Desire only if it used on the turn these moves are selected.
Follow Me draws Electric- and Water-type moves even if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod or Storm Drain is on the field. If another Pokémon on the same team is already the center of attention, the first user takes priority; if the first user is outside of range or stops being the center of attention, the attack will be drawn to the next center of attention.
Follow Me has no effect on moves which hit multiple Pokémon in a battle. While it can be used in Single Battles, it has no effect.
Generation V
In Triple Battles, Follow Me will draw the attacks of all opponents in the field, but it can only draw attacks from non-adjacent opponents if they use a move which is able to strike non-adjacent targets.
Follow Me cannot redirect Sky Drop. If the center of attention is taken into the air by Sky Drop, it no longer draws moves.
Generation VI onward
Follow Me now has +2 priority.
Follow Me does not redirect Future Sight or Doom Desire.
Snipe Shot and the Abilities Stalwart and Propeller Tail ignore Follow Me and hit the intended target.
If powered up by a Normalium Z into Z-Follow Me, all of the user's lowered stats are reset.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
In Red Rescue Team, Blue Rescue Team, Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness and Explorers of Sky, Follow Me is a move with 15PP. The user gains Decoy status condition for 21-50 turns, making them more likely to be targeted by the AI. This move is affected by Taunt.
From Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity onwards, Follow Me warps 1 random enemy in the same room to the tile in front of the user, and warps allies nearby the user to surround said enemy.

Trivia
- A song under the same Japanese name uses this move as the title, as well as Pokémon and move puns.
- In Generation III, the status screen erroneously states that the move has 100% accuracy, even though it targets the user (thus it ignores accuracy and evasion checks).
- Despite being introduced in Generation III, no Pokémon from this Generation can learn the move.
- A Jirachi distributed through an event was later released during Generation V, being the only exception.
