Talk:Ingrain (move)
Amoonguss in BW105
In, the beginning of BW105, when Kotetsu's Ferrothorn battles against an Amoonguss, several roots can be seen around Amoonguss (check the episode pictures of that episode to see). Is this the move Ingrain? I'm not sure, but if it is Ingrain, it should be added to the anime section of this page. ☼ BlazingFist ☼ 19:41, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
- I think it is, so I put it there (without noticing this talk starting first, sorry). --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 19:54, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
Ghost-types
In Gen VI can the Phantump line (or any other Pokémon that through some convoluted means wound up as a Ghost type under the effects of Ingrain) still switch out after using this move with the Ghost-type's immunity to trapping?BOOXMOWO (talk) 17:51, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
Grounding
Is it worth mentioning that Ingrain is the first ever move to cause its user to be grounded? In Generation III the grounding effect of Ingrain can only be demonstrated by a Flying-type using this move via Snatch. - unsigned comment from Shawn (talk • contribs)
- Have you confirmed that Flying types using Ingrain can be hit by Ground-type moves in Generation III? Nescientist (talk) 15:15, 24 June 2017 (UTC)
Ingrain Preventing Switching Out
The page (under Generation III) states, "[...] a Pokémon under the effect of Ingrain can be switched out when the game allows the player to switch before an opponent sends out their next Pokémon after their previous Pokémon fainted. [...]" However, at least on my own copy of Emerald, this is not the case. I can try to check this in other games from the series but it may take me quite some time. How should the page be updated?

I've tested Ingrain on Switch mode in a couple additional games, Sapphire and FireRed prevented the Pokemon from switching out (the prompt to do so after getting a KO didn't even appear) while in Platinum and Ultra Moon, Switch mode lets you switch out after a KO as usual even after using Ingrain. That suggests that Ingrain overriding Switch mode applies to all of Generation III, but no further.
