What is the interaction with taunt against a Pokemon with no attacking moves?

Question

Suppose a Pokemon with no attacking moves gets taunted. What will happen? Can the taunted Pokemon switch out on the next turn or will it just use struggle and not allow the player to do anything until the taunt wears off?

Comments

Good question. I've been wondering about this myself.

afaik taunt doesn't block you from switching out

Answer 1

If a Pokémon with no attacking moves gets Taunted, the only thing it can do are either switch out or use Struggle.
