* ''[[Pokémon]]'' both plays this straight and has a slight variation: the moves Block, Mean Look, Spider Web, and [[The Corruption|Shadow Hold]] will prevent foes from running away or switching out to another party member. There are also a few abilities that do this naturally, such as Arena Trap (doesn't work on Flying or Levitating mons, though), Magnet Pull (only works on Steel types) and Shadow Tag (works no matter what, [[Obvious Rule Patch|unless against another trapper]], and is the sole reason [[Lethal Joke Character|Wobbuffet]] used to be banned in competitive play). The variation is that if an enemy has a higher level/speed stat than your current Pokémon, you won't be able to run away. You can still switch, though.
* Not an exact example but similar, in the freeware game ''Power of the Mind'', the (telekinetic) final boss Arogath is driven into an [[Unstoppable Rage]] by your ultimate thwarting of his plan, and lashes out in a berserk frenzy. If you try to hide from him, he bellows "[[Punctuated for Emphasis|You...will...not...hide...from... ]]'''[[Punctuated for Emphasis|ME!!!]]'''" and uses his power to basically gravity-nuke and flatten the entire area, destroying all possible cover for a huge radius. Instead of bringing you to him, he merely eliminates your ability to evade him. You need [[Tank Goodness|a little hardware]] to put the fight to him.
* Characters with tethers (ranged grabs) in ''[[Super Smash Brothers]]'' could count. This includes each [[The Legend of Zelda|Link]] (with the [[Grappling Hook Pistol|hookshot]], or the [[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|clawshot]]), [[Metroid|Samus Aran]] (grapple beam, or plasma whip as Zero Suit), [[YoshisYoshi's Island|Yoshi]] (his tongue), [[MOTHER|Lucas]] (the rope snake), [[Pokémon|Ivysaur]] (vines), and [[Pikmin|Olimar]] (pikmin).
* ''[[Arcana Heart]]'''s Medein (magnet arcana) powers can draw opponents closer to the wielder.
* ''[[Sly Cooper]] 2'' has The Contessa, who will reel you in with webs if you try to leave. And drop you in front of her, shortly followed by a rush attack. Strangely enough, she can do this even when she's falling off the arena herself.
