Learn how the Psychic-type Teleport move works in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, ending wild battles and switching Pokémon in trainer battles.
Teleport is a Psychic-type move with 20 PP (Power Points) and 100% accuracy. Its category is Other, meaning it does not deal damage directly.

In contests, Teleport is a Cool-type move worth 2 points.
Tips
- Teleport is invaluable for escaping from wild Pokémon encounters, especially when you need to conserve PP for your battling Pokémon.
- In trainer battles, use Teleport strategically to switch to a Pokémon with a type advantage against the opponent's current Pokémon.
- Be aware that Teleport will fail if the opposing Pokémon has used Mean Look, Spider Web, Block, or Shadow Tag, as these moves prevent switching.
