How it works in Gen IX
If this move is successful and the user has not fainted, the user switches out even if it is trapped and is replaced immediately by a selected party member. The user does not switch out if there are no unfainted party members.
“The user switches places with a party Pokémon in waiting, if any. If a wild Pokémon uses this move, it flees.”
