U-turn (Japanese: とんぼがえり Round-trip) is a Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation IV.
Its Japanese name can be translated as "Dragonfly Commute" (or "Dragonfly Return"), and it refers to both suddenly changing direction midway, and turning back soon after reaching a certain destination, as well as meaning somersault.
Effect
U-turn deals damage and then switches the user out. The user will not be swtiched out if the user is the only Pokémon that is able to battle.
If the foe Pokémon uses Pursuit on the same turn U-turn is used, Persuit will deal normal damage if the foe is faster, or double damage if the foe is slower than the user.
If the Pokémon selected after the switch-out is a Choice item user who also knows the move U-turn, that Pokémon will be locked in U-turn, even though it technically has not attacked yet. This bug has been fixed in Pokémon Platinum.
