This move ensures that the user's next attack will hit against its current target. This effect can be Baton Passed to another Pokemon. Lock-On fails against Pokemon in the middle of using Protect, Detect, DigFly, Bounce or Dive, as well as Pokemon behind a Substitute. If the target uses Protect or Detect during its next turn, the user's next move has a [100 - move's normal accuracy]% chance to hit through Protect or Detect. OHKO moves do not benefit from this trait.

In double battles, Magic Coat will only reflect the first applicable move performed against its user before wearing off.
