Pursuit (Japanese: おいうち Pursuing Attack) is a damage-dealing Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation II.
Effect
If the target Pokémon is switched out on the turn Pursuit is used, Pursuit's power becomes 80 and will deal damage before the Pokémon is switched out.
In the Japanese edition of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, when a Pokémon using a Choice item uses Pursuit and the target Pokémon switches out, the Choice Pokémon is allowed to change its move on the next turn. This glitch was fixed in later versions of the games.
