Abilities

    • Volt-Absorb

      Whenever an electric-type move hits this Pokémon, it heals for 1/4 of its maximum HP, negating any other effect on it. This ability will not take effect if this Pokémon is ground-type and thus immune to Electric moves. Electric moves will ignore this Pokémon's substitute. This effect includes non-damaging moves, i.e. thunder wave.

    • Illuminate

      Overworld: If the lead Pokémon has this ability, the wild encounter rate is doubled. This ability has no effect in battle.

Hidden Abilities

    • Water-Absorb

      Whenever a water-type move hits this Pokémon, it heals for 1/4 of its maximum HP, negating any other effect on it. Water moves will ignore this Pokémon's substitute.

  I'm feeling lucky!

another to claim their respective turf.
