==Effect==
==Effect==
Infestation inflicts 1/8 of the target's maximum HP as damage per turn for four to five turns upon use, in addition to the damage dealt when it is used. It also traps the target, preventing switching and [[escape]]. The quote "<target> has been afflicted with an infestation by <user>!" will appear. If a trapped Pokémon uses {{m|Rapid Spin}}, it will be freed.

It also traps the target, preventing switching and [[escape]]. The quote "<target> has been afflicted with an infestation by <user>!" will appear. If the user switches out, the target will be freed. If a trapped Pokémon uses {{m|Rapid Spin}}, it will be freed.


If a [[wild Pokémon]] uses Infestation on the player's Pokémon, the player may escape if the affected Pokémon has {{a|Run Away}} or is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Smoke Ball}}. However, these do not allow the player to switch the Pokémon out. If an affected Pokémon is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Shed Shell}}, it can switch out.

If the user of Infestation is holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Grip Claw}}, the duration will always be 7 turns. If a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Binding Band}} is held by the user, the damage done at the end of each turn will increase from 1/8 of the target's maximum HP to 1/6.

Infestation (Japanese: まとわりつく Follow About) is a damage-dealing Bug-type move introduced in Generation VI. It was TM83 from Generation VI to Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

Effect

Infestation inflicts 1/8 of the target's maximum HP as damage per turn for four to five turns upon use, in addition to the damage dealt when it is used. It also traps the target, preventing switching and escape. The quote "<target> has been afflicted with an infestation by <user>!" will appear. If the user switches out, the target will be freed. If a trapped Pokémon uses Rapid Spin, it will be freed.

If a wild Pokémon uses Infestation on the player's Pokémon, the player may escape if the affected Pokémon has Run Away or is holding a Smoke Ball. However, these do not allow the player to switch the Pokémon out. If an affected Pokémon is holding a Shed Shell, it can switch out.

If the user of Infestation is holding a Grip Claw, the duration will always be 7 turns. If a Binding Band is held by the user, the damage done at the end of each turn will increase from 1/8 of the target's maximum HP to 1/6.

Trivia

  • This move originated as a TCG Attack.
  • This is the only move to play a battle effect in Generation VI games when the option is disabled (specifically, its between-turn effect). Similar effects always played for binding moves in Generation V games; the battle effect oversight for Infestation is perhaps tied both to this Generation V quirk and to Infestation being the only new binding move in Generation VI.
