Effect

In Battle

The user draws attention to itself, making all foes take aim only at the user.

Follow Me forces opposing Pokémon to target the user rather than the user's partner during double battles. If the user's partner is switching out, Follow Me will not divert an opponent from using Pursuit on its partner. Follow Me does not stop the effects of moves which hit multiple Pokémon in a double battle. In Generation V, Follow Me will only draw attacks of adjacent opponents in triple battles.

Contests

Temporarily stops the crowd from growing excited.

Super Contests

Makes the order of contestants random in the next turn.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon

Follow Me makes the user turn into a decoy.
