How it works in Gen VIII
The user and its party members are protected from non-damaging attacks made by other Pokémon, including allies, during this turn. Fails if the user moves last this turn or if this move is already in effect for the user's side.
“The user protects itself and its allies from status moves with a mysterious power. This does not stop moves that do damage.”
