For example, this Pokémon takes no damage from from [weather]{mechanic}, recoil, [status ailments]{mechanic}, or [Spikes]{mechanic}, but it still suffers from the [Attack]{mechanic} cut when [burned]{mechanic}, and a [Life Orb]{item} will still power up this Pokémon's moves without damaging it. Anything that depends on such damage will also not happen; for example, [Leech Seed]{move} will neither hurt this Pokémon nor heal the opponent, and Pokémon with a [Jaboca Berry]{item} or [Rowap Berry]{item} will not consume the berry when hit by this Pokémon.
[Struggle]{move}'s recoil; [Pain Split]{move}, whether used by or against this Pokémon; and the [HP]{mechanic} costs of [Belly Drum]{move} and [Substitute]{move} are unaffected.
If this Pokémon is [badly poisoned]{mechanic}, the poison counter is still increased each turn; if the Pokémon loses this ability, it will begin taking as much damage as it would be if it had been taking increasing damage each turn. This Pokémon still takes poison damage outside of battle.",Protects against damage not directly caused by a move.
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, moves affected by this ability have a (100 - accuracy)% chance to hit through [Detect]{move} or [Protect]{move}; moves that would usually be likely to miss are likely to break through. This is a bug and does not happen in any subsequent games.
The [Full Incense]{item} and [Lagging Tail]{item} take precedence over this ability; that is, Pokémon holding these items will move after this Pokémon, and these items override this ability when held.
This ability works as usual during [Trick Room]{move}: Pokémon with this ability will move in reverse order of Speed after Pokémon without it.",Makes the Pokémon move last within its move's priority bracket.
This includes moves of variable power, such as [Hidden Power]{move} and [Magnitude]{move}, when their power is 60 or less.",Strengthens moves of 60 base power or less to inflict 1.5× damage.
102,Leaf Guard,4,"This Pokémon cannot be given a [major status ailment]{mechanic} during [strong sunlight]{mechanic}.
This ability does not heal prior status ailments. [Yawn]{move} will immediately fail if used on this Pokémon during strong sunlight, and an already-used Yawn will fail if the weather turns to strong sunlight in the meantime. [Sleep]{mechanic} from [Rest]{move} is unaffected.",Protects against [major status ailments]{mechanic} during [strong sunlight]{mechanic}.
The [Speed]{mechanic} cut from the [Iron Ball]{item} and the effort items (the [Macho Brace]{item}, [Power Weight]{item}, [Power Bracer]{item}, [Power Belt]{item}, [Power Lens]{item}, [Power Band]{item}, and [Power Anklet]{item}) is unaffected. The experience from the [Exp. Share]{item} and the effort from the effort items are unaffected.",Negates all effects of the Pokémon's held item.
This Pokémon's moves ignore abilities that would prevent them, such as [Levitate]{ability}, [Soundproof]{ability}, and [Water Absorb]{ability}; abilities that would prevent their effects, such as [Clear Body]{ability}, [Shell Armor]{ability}, and [Sticky Hold]{ability}; abilities that grant any protective benefit, such as [Simple]{ability}, [Snow Cloak]{ability}, and [Thick Fat]{ability}; and abilities that would prevent them from hitting the intended target, i.e. [Lightningrod]{ability} and [Storm Drain]{ability}. If an ability could either hinder or help this Pokémon's moves, e.g. [Dry Skin]{ability} or [Unaware]{ability}, the ability is ignored either way.
An ability ignored by this ability is only nullified for the duration of the move. For example, this Pokémon's moves can [paralyze]{mechanic} a Pokémon with [Limber]{ability}, but Limber will activate and heal the paralysis immediately thereafter, and this Pokémon's [Spikes]{move} are not affected by this ability after they have been placed.
This ablity does not in any way ignore type changes granted by abilities such as [Color Change]{ability} or [Forecast]{ability}; nor effects that were caused by abilities but are no longer tied to an ability, such as the rain from [Drizzle]{ability}; nor abilities that hinder moves' effects on the user but not the target, such as [Liquid Ooze]{ability}. This ability cannot ignore [Multitype]{ability}.
When this Pokémon enters battle, all participating trainers are notified that it has this ability.",Makes moves ignore targets' abilities if they could hinder or prevent them.
105,Super Luck,4,This Pokémon's moves have their [critical hit]{mechanic} rate raised one level.,Raises moves' [critical hit]{mechanic} rates one level.
106,Aftermath,4,"When this Pokémon is knocked out by a move that makes contact, the move's user takes 1/4 its maximum [HP]{mechanic} in damage.",Damages the attacker for 1/4 its max [HP]{mechanic} when knocked out by a contact move.
107,Anticipation,4,"When this Pokémon enters battle, if one of its opponents has a move that is [super effective]{mechanic} against it, [Selfdestruct]{move}, [Explosion]{move}, or a one-hit knockout move, all participating trainers are notified.
Moves that inflict [typeless damage]{mechanic} and moves of variable type count as their listed types. The move itself is not revealed; only that there is such a move.","Notifies all trainers upon entering battle if an opponent has a [super-effective]{mechanic} move, [Selfdestruct]{move}, [Explosion]{move}, or a one-hit KO move."
108,Forewarn,4,"When this Pokémon enters battle, it reveals the move with the highest base power known by any opposing Pokémon to all participating trainers.
[Speed]{mechanic} modifiers are thus not ignored. [Punishment]{move}'s power is calculated as usual. When this Pokémon hurts itself out of [confusion]{mechanic}, its stat modifiers affect damage as usual.",Ignores other Pokémon's stat modifiers when attacking or defending.
110,Tinted Lens,4,This Pokémon deals twice as much damage with moves that are [not very effective]{mechanic} against the target.,Doubles damage inflicted with [not-very-effective]{mechanic} moves.
111,Filter,4,"This Pokémon takes 0.75× as much damage from moves that are [super effective]{mechanic} against it.
This ability functions identically to [Solid Rock]{ability}.",Makes [super-effective]{mechanic} moves inflict 0.75× as much damage against the Pokémon.
112,Slow Start,4,"This Pokémon's [Attack]{mechanic} and [Speed]{mechanic} are halved for five turns upon entering battle.
This ability also takes effect when acquired during battle. If this Pokémon loses its ability before the five turns are up, its Attack and Speed return to normal; if it then regains this ability without leaving battle, its Attack and Speed are halved again, but the counter keeps counting from where it was.",Halves [Attack]{mechanic} and [Speed]{mechanic} for five turns upon entering battle.
113,Scrappy,4,"This Pokémon ignores [Ghost]{type}-type Pokémon's immunity to [Normal]{type} and [Fighting]{type} moves.
Ghost Pokémon's other types affect damage as usual.",Lets the Pokémon's [Normal]{type} and [Fighting]{type} moves hit [Ghost]{type}-types.
114,Storm Drain,4,"All other Pokémon's single-target [Water]{type}-type moves will hit this Pokémon, including its ally's, ignoring selected target and [accuracy]{mechanic}.
[Follow Me]{move} takes precedence over this ability.","Draws in all other Pokémon's [Water]{type} moves, ignoring target and [accuracy]{mechanic}."
115,Ice Body,4,"This Pokémon heals for 1/16 of its maximum [HP]{mechanic} after each turn during [hail]{mechanic}, and it does not take hail damage regardless of type.",Heals for 1/16 max [HP]{mechanic} after each turn during hail.
116,Solid Rock,4,"This Pokémon takes 0.75× as much damage from moves that are [super effective]{mechanic} against it.
This ability functions identically to [Filter]{ability}.",Makes [super-effective]{mechanic} moves inflict 0.75× as much damage against the Pokémon.
117,Snow Warning,4,"The [weather]{mechanic} changes to [hail]{mechanic} when this Pokémon enters battle and continues indefinitely unless cancelled by another weather condition.
The weather abilities respect [Speed]{mechanic}. If multiple Pokémon with this ability, [Drizzle]{ability}, [Sand Stream]{ability}, or [Snow Warning]{ability} are sent out at the same time, each will take effect and be cancelled by the next, and only the slowest Pokémon's ability (or the fastest during [Trick Room]{move}) will have its weather stay.",Summons [hail]{mechanic} upon entering battle.
118,Honey Gather,4,"This Pokémon has a chance of picking up [Honey]{item} after each battle.
This chance starts at 5% and rises another 5% after every tenth level: 5% from level 1–10, 10% from 11–20, and so on, up to 50% from 91–100.",The Pokémon may pick up [Honey]{item} after battle.
119,Frisk,4,"When this Pokémon enters battle, it reveals an opposing Pokémon's held item to all participating trainers.
In a double battle, if one opponent has an item, this Pokémon will Frisk that Pokémon; if both have an item, it will Frisk one at random.",Reveals an opponent's held item upon entering battle.
120,Reckless,4,"This Pokémon's recoil moves and crash moves have 1.2× their base power.
The ""crash moves"" are the moves that damage the user upon missing: [Jump Kick]{move} and [Hi Jump Kick]{move}.",Strengthens recoil moves to 1.2× their power.
This Pokémon's held item, whether or not it is a Plate, cannot be taken by [Covet]{move} or [Thief]{move}, nor removed by [Knock Off]{move}, nor traded by [Switcheroo]{move} or [Trick]{move}. Covet, Thief, and Knock Off still inflict damage against this Pokémon. Unlike with [Sticky Hold]{ability}, this Pokémon cannot use [Fling]{move}, Switcheroo, or Trick to lose its item itself, nor gain an item through Switcheroo or Trick if it does not have one.
This ability has no effect for any Pokémon other than [Arceus]{pokemon}. This ability cannot be traded with [Skill Swap]{move}, nor copied with [Role Play]{move} or [Trace]{ability}, nor disabled with [Gastro Acid]{move}, nor changed with [Worry Seed]{move}. This Pokémon cannot use Skill Swap or Role Play to lose its ability itself. [Mold Breaker]{ability} cannot ignore this ability.
If a Pokémon [Transform]{move}s into an Arceus with this ability, it will Transform into Arceus's default, [Normal]{type}-type form. If the Transforming Pokémon is holding a plate, this ability will then activate and change the Pokémon into the corresponding form.",Changes [Arceus]{pokemon}'s type and form to match its held Plate.
122,Flower Gift,4,"This Pokémon and its ally have 1.5× their [Attack]{mechanic} and [Special Defense]{mechanic} during [strong sunlight]{mechanic}.
Unlike [Forecast]{ability} and [Multitype]{ability}, this ability is not tied to its Pokémon's form change; [Cherrim]{pokemon} will switch between its forms even if it loses this ability. As such, this ability also works if obtained by a Pokémon other than Cherrim.",Heightens the Pokémon and its ally's [Attack]{mechanic} and [Special Defense]{mechanic} to 1.5× during [strong sunlight]{mechanic}.
