U-Turn Move Detail
U-Turn is a Bug-type move with 70 power and 100% accuracy. This move not only deals damage but also allows the user to switch out immediately after attacking, letting another Pokémon from the user's team take its place. U-Turn is especially valuable in competitive play for maintaining momentum and gaining advantageous matchups. It is commonly used by fast Pokémon to scout and react to the opponent's strategy while continuing to apply pressure. Additionally, it works well with Pokémon that have abilities or moves that benefit from switching, such as those holding a Choice item or having the ability Regenerator.
