Multi-turn attack. Unless this attack misses, even if the opposing Pokémon is immune to this attack, the effect begins if this attack isn’t in effect already. (If the opposing Pokémon is immune, the attack still deals zero damage.) Effect lasts for two to five turns (random), including the current turn. 37.5% for two or three turns; 12.5% for four or five turns. During effect, the opposing Pokémon doesn’t attack during each of its attack segments (but can switch) and user uses this attack during each of its attack segments and can’t choose a move each turn (but can switch), and when this attack is used during effect (after the effect begins), deals damage to the opposing Pokémon equal to the last damage dealt (which is not affected by type immunities and without an accuracy check). Effect ends when the user or the opposing Pokémon leaves the battle. Effect ends when the user is prevented from using this attack during effect (in which case the opposing Pokémon still doesn’t attack during its attack segment that turn).

Detailed Information

If the opposing Pokémon switches out before the multi-turn attack’s effect ends, the effect ends and the user will use the last move chosen for use by the user, even if has zero PP. (In that case, if the user is an AI-controlled Pokémon in a battle in which Exp. Points can gained, the user will have chosen a move for use in this turn by itself. ) (If the move is used this way and it has 0 PP, the game erroneously subtracts 0 by 1, resulting in the value 255 (that is, 256 minus 1, wrapping around to 8 bits), or 63 PP (low 6 bits) and 3 PP Ups used (high 2 bits).)

On the last attack segment of the multi-turn attack’s effect, if the user attacks, the effect ends at the end of the turn (the opposing Pokémon "can’t move" during that turn.) Otherwise (for example if the user uses an item), the effect ends before each Pokémon’s attack segment begins.
