Effect Summary

Prevents the user from leaving battle. User regains ¹⁄₁₆ of its max HP stat img every turn.

Detailed Effect

Ingrain plant roots around itself, restoring ¹⁄₁₆ of maximum HP stat img every turn.
The user is also unable to flee or switch out during that time.
If the user is holding a Big Root item img, the move instead recovers 30% more HP stat img (8.125% instead of 6.25%).
The user can not be forced out by moves that switch the target (such as Roar or Whirlwind) or by Red Card item img
Heal Block does not make Ingrain fail but prevents the healing effect.
The user can still switch out with its own effects such as: Ingrain causes the target Pokémon to be 'grounded' forcing it to the ground and removing the 'raised' effect (it can now be hit by type icon Ground -type moves and other ground-based effects). Telekinesis fails against Pokémon affected by Ingrain.
  • In Gen 3 type icon Ghost -type Pokémon can also be rooted by Ingrain.
