Their fur feels so good that if two of them snuggle together, they won’t want to be separated.

Hocus pinkus…does this mean just the defending Pokemon can’t attack? , does it still count if the defending Pokemon evolves or can the evolved Pokemon attack?
HEZ
Just the Pokemon that gets hit cannot attack. If the defending pokemon evolves or levels up then all effect of attacks are removed from it and it can attack again. The same applies if it goes to the bench and back.

How do you know that?

Because evolutions have historically removed all effects that apply to the targets from which they evolve.

Thank you both!

Hocus Pinkus is a dumb move. I hate it SO MUCH. God, you know how many times my main attackers have been whittled down from full HP with zero chance of attacking? TOO MANY TIMES. It’s a death sentence when you don’t have a Switch card. Hocus Pinkus translates into “Die, mortal. Perish from this plane!” in Wigglytuff. I hate this card so much.
