Extra Information

Bind is a Normal type damage-dealing move.

Functionality

Bind inflicts damage and binds the opponent for equal chance of 4 or 5 turns. During those turns, the opponent is unable to switch Pokemon. During wild Pokemon battles, the binded Pokemon is also unable to run away. Furthermore, it will take 1/8 of its maximum HP as indirect damage at the end of each of these turns.

If the user is holding a Grip Claw, it will last 7 turns.

Bugs

• The duration in PRO is one less than in the original games. With Grip Claw equipped, instead of dealing Bind damage 7 times then releasing on the next turn, it will instead deal damage 6 times and be released on the 7th turn. (Report thread)
• If the opponent is defeated from the direct damage of Bind, the next Pokemon that is sent in the battle will be trapped. (Report thread)
• If Bind successfully hits a Ghost through Scrappy, the Ghost type will become unable to switch out.
