Choice-Scarf 
Choice Scarf is a held item in the Pokémon series that significantly impacts competitive play. When a Pokémon holds a Choice Scarf, its Speed stat is boosted by 50%. This effect allows the holder to outspeed many potential threats, providing a strategic advantage in battles by enabling the user to strike first.
However, the Choice Scarf comes with a notable restriction: once the holder uses a move, it becomes locked into that move until it is switched out. This limitation requires careful planning and prediction since being locked into an unfavorable move can be exploited by the opponent.
Key Effects: 1. Speed Boost: Increases the holder's Speed stat by 50%. 2. Move Lock: Restricts the holder to the first move it uses until it switches out.

Effect:
- Held: Increases the holder's Speed by 50%, but restricts it to the first move it uses until it leaves battle or loses this item. If this item is swapped for another Choice item via Trick or Switcheroo, the holder's restriction is still lifted, but it will again be restricted to the next move it uses. (Quirk: If the holder is switched in by U-Turn and it also knows U-Turn, U-Turn becomes its restricted move.)
