Armor-Tail is a special ability in the Pokémon series that primarily serves a defensive role by protecting the Pokémon with this ability and its allies from priority moves. Priority moves are attacks that typically "go first" regardless of the user's Speed stat. When a Pokémon with Armor-Tail is on the battlefield, these priority moves are nullified, meaning they will not affect the Pokémon with Armor-Tail nor its team members.
Effects of Armor-Tail: 1. Immunity to Priority Moves: Any move that has increased priority, such as Quick Attack, Extreme Speed, or Aqua Jet, will not work against a Pokémon with Armor-Tail. This can disrupt opponents' strategies that rely on finishing off opponents with these swift moves.
