Effect

This move effect may be in need of research. Reason: How does hitting yourself in confusion interact with Torment? Does it count the move used on the previous turn, current turn, or neither? You can discuss this on the talk page.

Torment prevents the target from using the same move twice in a row. The effect lasts until the target is switched out. If a Pokémon has selected the move it used last turn and becomes affected with Torment, it may still use the move this turn (even if it moves after the user of Torment).

If the target can only use one move (e.g. is holding a Choice item, only has one move with PP, is under the effect of Encore, etc.), the target will be forced to use Struggle every second round. Struggle is not affected by Torment; if a Pokémon has run out of PP for all of its moves, it can continue to use Struggle. Moves such as Rollout will still be fully executed under the effects of Torment.

Torment does not work on Pokémon under the protection of Aroma Veil. Torment does not prevent the target from repeating its most recent move via Instruct. It hits through a substitute.

Generations III and IV

Torment cannot be reflected with Magic Coat.

In Pokémon Emerald, if the target hits itself in Confusion, Torment has no effect on which move it can select next.

In Generation IV, due to an oversight, if a tormented Pokémon has used Rage and then selects a different move, it will be freed from the torment, but its rage will still be building.

Generation V onwards

Torment can now be reflected with Magic Coat.

Pokémon that know Torment are banned from participating in films at Pokéstar Studios.

Torment can also be used as part of a Contest Spectacular combination, causing certain moves (Counter, Destiny Bond, Grudge, King's Shield, Metal Burst, Mirror Coat and Spite) to give an extra three appeal points if used in the next turn.

A Pokémon affected by Torment can upgrade a status move into a Z-Move even if it used that move during the previous turn.

If powered up by a Darkinium Z into Z-Torment, the user's Defense stat rises by one stage.

Torment will fail if used on a Dynamax Pokémon, and a Pokémon under the effect of Torment can remove it by Dynamaxing.

Torment seals the target's last used move, preventing the sealed move from being used. This move is affected by the Muzzled status condition.

Prior to Gates to Infinity, a sealed move is not considered a status condition, however could still be cured by status-curing moves such as Refresh. From Gates to Infinity, sealing is now considered a status condition.
