Abilities

  • shield-dust

    This Pokémon is immune to the extra effects of moves used against it. An extra effect is a move's chance, listed as an "effect chance", to inflict a status ailment, cause a stat change, or make the target flinch in addition to the move's main effect. For example, thunder shock's paralysis is an extra effect, but thunder wave's is not, nor are knock off's item removal and air cutter's increased critical hit rate.

  • tinted-lens

    This Pokémon deals twice as much damage with moves that are not very effective against the target.

  • wonder-skin

    Non-damaging moves have exactly 50% base accuracy against this Pokémon.
