No, I don't think that answer answers my question. The opposing Pokemon doesn't move when you switch or heal

By healing, do you mean using a move like Rest or Synthesis or ...?

Answer 1

Payback inflicts damage. Its power doubles to 100 if the user moves after the target, if the target switches out, or if the opponent uses an item.

Generation V onwards
Payback's power no longer doubles if the target switches out.

I suppose it does, according to this
