Trick (Japanese: トリック Trick) is a non-damaging Template:Type2 move introduced in Generation III.
Effect
Generation III-IV
The user switches held items with the target. It fails if neither has a held item, if either Pokémon is holding Griseous Orb or Mail, if the target has a Substitute, or if either Pokémon has Sticky Hold. It also fails if either Pokémon has Multitype and either of the swapped items is a Plate.
Generation V
Trick will now succeed with a Griseous Orb as long as neither the user nor the target is Giratina.
Trick cannot exchange a Drive if the user or the target is a Genesect.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon
Trick fails if either Pokémon is not holding an item.
