What are the differences between Trick and Switcheroo?

Don’t talk about PP, or contets.What are the major differences between the 2 moves, why Game Freak has 2 (same?) moves?

Pleaselog inorregisterto add a comment.

They are essentially the same, apart from the fact that

Other than that, there are no major differences, their animations are even very similar:

As for why they made two near identical moves, no one can tell you apart from Game Freak, no real theories on this one.

Type, PP, name and the Pokemon which learn them.There’s no difference in effect.

As towhythese moves are the same, only Game Freak can answer that.

Okay the 1 difference are the types, Trick is a Psychic move and Switcheroo is a Dark move.Switcheroo:Does not make contactAffected by ProtectNot affected by Magic CoatNot affected by SnatchNot affected by King’s RocTrick is almost the same but includes:Affected by Mirror coatOkay did you mean contents or contests? I didn’t get it so:Switcheroo is a Cool move while Trick is Smart.Switcheroo is not a tutor move while Trick is!I hope I helped!

Well since we can’t talk about PP, I have found some info, but this might confuse you: they are the same move but they are different. You see, they are just the same move it’s just the many Pokemon can learn it. Do you get what I’m saying(:P)? It just wouldn’t make sense for a lopunny to use magic to switch items, but it would make sense for a lopunny to switch the items “secretly”

Hopefully this answers your question

Hope I helped!(ish)
