Guard Dog
Boosts Attack if intimidated, and prevents being forced to switch out.
How it works
Boosts the Pokémon’s Attack stat if intimidated. Moves and items that would force the Pokémon to switch out also fail to work.
Effects can vary between games. This is the synced main-series reference; check the rules of the game you are playing.
