Game data
Abilities
- Weak Armor
When the Pokémon takes damage from a physical move, its Defense stat is lowered, but its Speed stat is boosted sharply.
- Cursed BodyHidden
When the Pokémon takes damage from a move, the attacker has a 30% chance to have whichever move it last used disabled for 4 turns.
Water-type moves do not work on the Pokémon. Instead, they restore ¼ of its max HP.
