Block prevents the foe from switching out. The effect only applies as long as the Pokémon that used it remains in battle.

Block (Japanese: とおせんぼう Block) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation III.

Effect

Block prevents the target from switching out. The effect only applies as long as the user is still in battle. The affected Pokémon can still switch out using Baton Pass, but in that case, the Pokémon that switches in will become trapped.

If the user switches out using Baton Pass, the effects of Block will still apply to the target. Also, if the target is Roared at or hit with a Whirlwind, they will still be switched out.
