Magnet Pull (Japanese: じりょく Magnetism) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. Five Pokémon can have this Ability, all of which are Steel types or evolve into a Steel type and evolve into their final forms in a location with a special magnetic field.
Effect
In battle
Magnet Pull traps Steel-type Pokémon, making them unable to leave battle except by holding a Shed Shell, using Baton Pass, U-turn, or Volt Switch.
As of Generation VI, Ghost type Pokémon are unaffected by Magnet Pull, even if they are part Steel.
In a Double Battle or Triple Battle, Magnet Pull does not affect the partner Pokémon.
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, a Pokémon with Magnet Pull immobilizes Steel-type Pokémon that attack it directly, preventing them from moving for a few turns.
Outside of battle
From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with Magnet Pull is leading the party, then the likelihood of encountering wild Steel-type Pokémon is 150% of the usual.
