If a Pokemon holding a lagging tail and uses a priority move, the priority will be priorited (hope you understodd what I meant there), so If you take a Pokemon with lagging tail, and uses Quick attack you will go first. But, If you have higher speed than opponent and uses a+1 priority move (for an example) , while your opponent uses a +1 priority move too, you will still go last because of the lagging tail.Sorry If this just confused you Even more XD, but you can read thesourcefor an better example.

Hope I helped :)

It depends on which move it is. If its a move like helping hand, rage powder or bullet punch, it goes first. If its a move like quick guard or magic coat, the move will go second or last. Some of those moves priority is either 0 or -1. Ice shard and and shadow sneak have a priority of 0. The lagging tail makes you go slower but using a +1 priority move will either make you go 1st or last.
