Arena Trap (Japanese: ありじごく Antlion) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. Three Pokémon have this Ability, all of which are of the Ground-type.
Effect
In battle
Arena Trap prevents fleeing or switching out as long as the user remains in battle. If the user switches out, the affected Pokémon can switch out or flee in the next turn. Flying-type Pokémon and Pokémon with Levitate are immune to the effect of this Ability. Run Away will also negate its effect, but only in a wild Pokémon battle.
Outside of battle
From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if the Pokémon with Arena Trap is leading the party, then the wild Pokémon encounter rate is increased to 200%.
