Attract Effect

Causes the target to fall in love with the user, giving it a 50% chance to do nothing each turn. If the user and target are the same gender, or either is genderless, this move will fail. If either Pokémon leaves the field, this effect ends.

“If the target is of the opposite gender to the user, it becomes infatuated with the user and will sometimes be unable to use its moves.”

Target: One other Pokémon on the field, selected by the trainer.
