Switching nullifies Kinesis, while only Haze can handle Evasion moves.
More or less.

Because if you get kinesised you can switch out and the effect finishes. Really kinesis is only useful when you can hurt all but one of your opponent's Pokemon. Kinesis it and catch the other in the switch. Also Kinesis only has 80% accuaricy (and Flash 70%)

Kinesis and Sand-Attack function very differently from Double Team and Minimize, mainly because of the fact that they can be negated by switching out.
These moves are best used to force a costly switch-out, or when switching is impossible (last Pokemon). Also, these accuracy-lowering moves are great when used on someone who's already using an inaccurate move (think Hypnosis, Fire Blast, etc).
Double Team is a nightmare, especially with Substitute/Rest thrown in.

What was the point of even putting the move into the game if the only way Kadabra and Alakazam can learn it is through something like Gameshark?
Well played, Nintendo.

I think RBY has problems far worse than Kinesis not being available. Icy's right anyway, I've seen it on Kadabra before.
