How it works in Gen VII
For 5 turns, the target's held item has no effect. An item's effect of causing forme changes is unaffected, but any other effects from such items are negated. During the effect, Fling and Natural Gift are prevented from being used by the target. Items thrown at the target with Fling will still activate for it. If the target uses Baton Pass, the replacement will remain unable to use items.
- Bounced back by
“This move prevents the target from using its held item for five turns. Its Trainer is also prevented from using items on it.”
