Ditto and entrainment

Question

So say Ditto switches in and becomes a Blazizen and the foe switches and sends out Durant and then the Durant uses Entrainment with truant. If Ditto switched would he still have Traunt? Would he stay a Blaziken? Would Entrainment fail?

Answer 1

Ugh, was being stupid when I answered this.

• When Ditto switches, Traunt disappears. So, no.
• Why would it stay a Blaziken? Nope, it won't. Imposter/Transform wear off when switching. If you mean if it stayed in and took Entrainment, then it will stay as a Blaziken. Remember that Ditto's new Ability is Blaze / Speed Boost, so Entrainment will target those, NOT Imposter.
• Entrainment will only fail if the opposing Pokemon has Traunt (in this case). So if Ditto has Traunt already, then it will fail. If it doesn't have Traunt, it will succeed.
