If Magic Coat is used on the same turn that the attacking Pokémon uses any one of the following moves against the user of Magic Coat, the move is bounced back to its source and affects the attacking Pokémon instead:
All non-damaging moves that induce a status ailment (e.g. Thunder Wave, Teeter Dance, Leech Seed).
All moves that do no damage but alter the target's stats (e.g. Flatter, Swagger), except Memento.
All non-damaging moves that influence switching/escaping battle (e.g. Block, Whirlwind).
All moves that affect Abilities (e.g. Gastro Acid, Worry Seed).
All moves that affect move access/PP amounts (e.g. Taunt, Torment, Spite).
All entry hazards.

This move has a priority value of +4, and is always performed before moves of a lower value (e.g. Quick Attack).
