Competitive Analysis
Guard Swap is a status Psychic-type move that switches the user and a target's Defense and Special Defense stat changes. This does not switch base stats.

Guard Swap is a Move learned by Mr. Mime in Pokemon UNITE. Learn the effects of Guard Swap, as well as its damage at each level, cooldown time, level to learn and upgrade, status effects it inflicts, and all Pokemon builds using Guard Swap.
Swaps Mr. Mime's Defense and Sp. Defense with another Pokemon, also increasing your Movement Speed. Targeting an enemy Pokemon will damage and slow them. If ally is targeted, it increases ally Pokemon Movement Speed for a short time.
Upgrade: Continually restores the HP of Mr. Mime and the ally Pokemon while this Move's effect is active.
Guard Swap is an interesting choice that requires more nuanced gameplay from players to fully utilize. Defensive applications of this move is scaled down to single-target, but the potential is arguably stronger than just a static wall. You swap Defense and Special Defense with your tethered ally. You also grant them increased Movement Speed for the entire duration.
Guard Swap synergizes extremely well with your passive ability and gives squishy Pokemon like Cramorant the ability to stay in position to dish their damage out longer than usual. You even have the ability to heal through your tether later on.
As far as offensive applications go, tethering to an enemy Pokemon Slows them down and deals damage over time, letting you and your allies close the distance quicker for the kill. Using Psychic on a tethered enemy essentially turns them into a bomb whenever it is casted while the tethered target is beside other opponents. Aiming Confusion on a tethered target does not shove them away but results in an instant stun instead.
