Game data
Abilities
- Guts
It’s so gutsy that having a status condition boosts the Pokémon’s Attack stat by 50%. Being burned does not halve the damage dealt by the Pokémon’s physical moves.
- ScrappyHidden
The Pokémon can hit Ghost-type Pokémon with Normal- and Fighting-type moves. It is also unaffected by Intimidate.
When the Pokémon is burned, the power of its special moves is boosted by 50%.
Egg moves
- BoomburstNormalSpecial140 pow · 100%
The user attacks everything around it with the destructive power of a terrible explosive sound.
- FacadeNormalPhysical70 pow · 100%
This move’s power is doubled if the user is poisoned, badly poisoned, burned, or paralyzed. Although this move is a physical move, the damage it deals is not halved when the user is burned.
- Headlong RushGroundPhysical120 pow · 100%
The user smashes into the target in a full-body tackle. This also lowers the user’s Defense and Sp. Def stats.
- No RetreatFightingStatus— · —Rare egg move
The user puts everything on the line and boosts its Attack, Defense, Sp. Atk, Sp. Def, and Speed stats. In exchange, the user loses the ability to flee or be switched out of battle. Can only be used once per time the user enters battle.
