Magnet Pull (Japanese: じりょく Magnetism) is an ability introduced in Generation III. Only 5 Pokémon have this ability, all of which are part of an evolution family that undergoes its final evolution by leveling up at Mt. Coronet in Sinnoh, are in the Mineral egg group (though one family is genderless), and have Sturdy as a secondary ability.
Effect
In battle
Magnet Pull traps Template:Type2 Pokémon, making them unable to leave battle except by holding Shed Shell. However, U-turn and Baton Pass may still be used to leave battle.
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2, a Pokémon with Magnet Pull immobilizes Steel-type Pokémon that attack it directly, preventing them from moving.
Outside of battle
In Pokémon Emerald and Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Magnet Pull increases the likelihood of encountering wild Steel-type Pokémon.
