This Ability prevents certain moves with increased priority to be executed, after their PP is deducted.
Mold Breaker, Turboblaze, and Teravolt ignore this Ability.
Blocked moves
Queenly Majesty blocks the moves with increased priority that target the Pokémon with this Ability or its allies.
The following moves are blocked:
- Moves with priority boosted by Gale Wings, Prankster, or Triage
- Moves called from moves with increased priority (such as Metronome or Mirror Move if their priority is increased; the priority of the called moves is ignored)
The moves that would be blocked when used normally are still blocked when forced by Instruct, or repeated by Encore or a held choice item, since they retain their original priority.
Unblocked moves
Queenly Majesty has no effect on moves with regular or decreased priority.
Queenly Majesty has no effect on the following moves even if they have increased priority:
- Moves that do not target the Pokémon with Queenly Majesty or its allies
- Moves used by allies
- Moves that target the user (such as Protect or Rest)
- Moves that target all Pokémon, except it blocks Perish Song, Flower Shield, and Rototiller
- Moves that target the opponent's side of the field (such as Spikes or Sticky Web)
- Moves that are called (such as Metronome or Mirror Move) by other moves with regular or decreased priority
Status Z-Moves with increased priority will have their Z-Power effect activate. For example, if a Pokémon uses Z-Baby-Doll Eyes on a Pokémon under the effect of Queenly Majesty, the user will still gain Defense; it will not lower the target's Attack, however.
Outside of battle
Queenly Majesty has no effect outside of battle.

Pokémon UNITE
In Pokémon UNITE, Queenly Majesty is Tsareena's Ability. When a hindrance is inflicted on the user; decrease the duration of the effect. Using a boosted attack or move grants 1 stack of Queenly Majesty to the user. After gaining 3 stacks, the Queenly Majesty buff is applied to the user for a short time, which allows one of user's moves to be reused (these uses do not share the same cooldown as the base moves), dealing increased damage and applying an additional effect based on the move used.
