The substitute is removed once enough damage is inflicted on it, if the user switches out or faints, or if any Pokemon uses Tidy Up. Baton Pass can be used to transfer the substitute to an ally, and the substitute will keep its remaining HP. Until the substitute is broken, it receives damage from all attacks made by other Pokemon and shields the user from status effects and stat stage changes caused by other Pokemon. Sound-based moves and Pokemon with the Infiltrator Ability ignore substitutes. The user still takes normal damage from weather and status effects while behind its substitute. If the substitute breaks during a multi-hit attack, the user will take damage from any remaining hits. If a substitute is created while the user is trapped by a binding move, the binding effect ends immediately.

| Triple Axel | 20 | 90 | 10 | Hits three times. Power increases to 40 for the second hit and 60 for the third. This move checks accuracy for each hit, and the attack ends if the target avoids a hit. If one of the hits breaks the target's substitute, it will take damage for the remaining hits. If the user has the Skill Link Ability, this move will always hit three times. | ||
| Uproar | 90 | 100 | 10 | The user spends three turns locked into this move. This move targets an opponent at random on each turn. On the first of the three turns, all sleeping active Pokemon wake up. During the three turns, no active Pokemon can fall asleep by any means, and Pokemon switched in during the effect do not wake up.

Ice type during Snow, Water type during Heavy Rain or Rain, Rock type during Sandstorm, and Fire type during Intense Sun or Sun.

Causes damage to the target equal to 1/8 of its maximum HP (1/6 if the user is holding Binding Band), rounded down, at the end of each turn during effect. The target can still switch out if it is holding Shed Shell or uses Baton Pass, Flip Turn, Parting Shot, Shed Tail, Teleport, U-turn, or Volt Switch. The effect ends if either the user or the target leaves the field, or if the target uses Mortal Spin, Rapid Spin, or Substitute successfully. This effect is not stackable or reset by using this or another binding move. | ||
| Yawn | - | - | 10 | Causes the target to fall asleep at the end of the next turn. Fails when used if the target cannot fall asleep or if it already has a non-volatile status condition. At the end of the next turn, if the target is still active, does not have a non-volatile status condition, and can fall asleep, it falls asleep. If the target becomes affected, this effect cannot be prevented by Safeguard or a substitute, or by falling asleep and waking up during the effect. |
