Talk:Encore (move)

Right above the demonstrational picture it says "The user compels the foe to keep using only the move it last used for two to six turns." But in the effect section it says "Encore forces the target to repeat the last move that they used for 4 to 8 turns." Which is correct? --sHoggard - rookie Pokéwiz 20:10, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

Non of them is completly correct. 4-8 is nonsence, 2-6 is only the half truth. But I chanced it into the correct version. --Bye, Nidoqueen 19:42, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Effect in Gen III-IV

In the effect section it says, "Encore lasts for 3 to 7 turns in Generation III and in all Generation IV games excluding Diamond and Pearl, in which it lasts for 2 to 6 turns." But all the Gen III descriptions say It lasts 2-6 turns.Micamike45 (talk) 01:21, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Regarding the research template on the page (Encore and Shell Trap)

I did some experimenting with a friend and found out that Encore will always fail if the target has used Shell Trap. If anyone needs a battle video to confirm, let me know.
