Follow Me is an Normal-type move.

Follow Me makes the user the center of attention, forcing opposing Pokémon to use its move on the user rather than the intended target (even if it was a friendly target, unless it is a move that cannot target an opponent such as Acupressure or Helping Hand) for the rest of the turn. If a move cannot target the center of attention, it will be used on its intended target. It does not affect allies.

If the center of attention faints or switches out, it no longer draws moves. Follow Me cannot draw moves with a charging turn like Fly or Solar Beam. If the center of attention is taken into the air by Sky Drop, it no longer draws moves.

Follow Me draws Electric-type moves even if a Pokémon with Lightning Rod is on the field. If another Pokémon on the same team is already the center of attention, the first user takes priority; if the first user is outside of range or stops being the center of attention, the attack will be drawn to the next center of attention.

Due to being in the same priority bracket, Follow Me can only divert Fake Out if the user of Follow Me would move before the user of Fake Out. Follow Me can divert Snatch if the user has Prankster and would move before the Pokémon using Snatch.
