No Retreat (Japanese: はいすいのじん Last Stand) is a non-damaging Fighting-type move introduced in Generation VIII. It is the signature move of Falinks.

Effect

151Mew.png This move effect may be in need of research.
Reason: Do moves that switch out the target Pokémon, such as Whirlwind or Dragon Tail, fail if the target has used this move?
You can discuss this on the talk page.

No Retreat raises the user's Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed by one stage each. It also prevents the user from switching out or fleeing, unless the user has Ghost type. No Retreat fails if the user is prevented from switching out or fleeing from No Retreat.

If the user has already been given the "Can't Escape" status by another move such as Mean Look, No Retreat will successfully grant its stat boosts but will not create an additional status line to trap the user again. In this case, using No Retreat multiple times will create multiple boosts.

Holding the item Shed Shell, Eject Button, or an opponent holding a Red Card allows the user of No Retreat to switch out even after using the move.
