Attacks and Abilities Guide

[Negrek]

Right. I have not made most b/w changes to moves.

 

[Wargle]

Does Heal Block stop Chilling?

Would using Telekinesis stop Chills?

 

[Negrek]

Neither of those block chills.

 

[Byrus]

Is it possible for a Pokémon to retrieve an item that was thrown away by someone that used thief, and if so, would it take a whole action to grab it?

 

[Lord of the Fireflies]

iirc, yes to both.

 

[Wargle]

What attacks can block a chill besides Taunt and Torment?


question removed for idiocy

 

[Zero Moment]

Can you steal an opponent's Item by using a move that doesn't have anything to do with stealing?

Yes to both.

To completely block chilling, the only other one I can think of off the top of my head is snatch. You might also make the opponent flinch, though the only sure-fire way to do that is with fake out, and only once. So it's not a real general solution.

However, it's fairly easy to disrupt a chill with something like uproar or roar or astonish or something. It probably won't prevent all the energy gain, but it should certainly reduce it.

Can you steal an opponent's Item by using a move that doesn't have anything to do with stealing?

I'd say know, but I'm not sure if you and I are thinking on the same wavelength about this. You mean like, "thunderpunch it and grab the leftovers while you're in its face", or something else?

 

[Karkat Vantas]

Trivial as this error is, Focus Energy is listed before Focus Blast.

All hail the alphabet.

 

[Wargle]

Would Flash be enough to disrupt a chill?

 

[RK-9]

Can pokemon with no eyes (in example, Roggenrola. That doesn't LOOK like an eye.) be affected by hypnosis?

 

[Squornshellous Beta]

How long would a Pokémon take to "clear its head" of confusion?

 

[Lord of the Fireflies]

Can pokemon with no eyes (in example, Roggenrola. That doesn't LOOK like an eye.) be affected by hypnosis?

I recall blind Pokémon (like Deino) not being affected by those.

Now, is Roggenrola blind? Not so sure about that.

 

[1. Luftballon]

last resort is 140 as of gen 5.

 

[Wargle]

Roggenrola's 'eye' is an ear

 

[Lord of the Fireflies]

Since Belly Drum deals 50% damage to the user in-game and 15% in ASB, shouldn't Curse deal only 15% damage to the user in ASB also?

[Skyman]

Does flying into the air to get out of reach of the opponent take up a whole action?

Also, could you combo two sound-based moves, such as Screech and Bug Buzz?

Fixed.

Would Flash be enough to disrupt a chill?

It might a little bit, but not by much if so.

Can pokemon with no eyes (in example, Roggenrola. That doesn't LOOK like an eye.) be affected by hypnosis?

Blind pokémon aren't affected by hypnosis, but unless there's something that specifically says that they're blind they're considered sighted... somehow. So in roggenrola's case, no.

How long would a Pokémon take to "clear its head" of confusion?

If the pokémon just takes an action to "clear its head," I usually just decrease its confusion severity by 5%.

Since Belly Drum deals 50% damage to the user in-game and 15% in ASB, shouldn't Curse deal only 15% damage to the user in ASB also?

/terriblelogic

Eh. Maybe.

Does flying into the air to get out of reach of the opponent take up a whole action?

Also, could you combo two sound-based moves, such as Screech and Bug Buzz?

Yes to the first, almost certainly not to the second. Like maybe you could combine like screech and uproar or something, but certainly not screech and bug buzz.

 

[Zhorken]

Are you allowed to send Zorua/Zoroark out without an illusion up to avoid making any decisions about your remaining Pokémon?

 

[Negrek]

Yes, illusion's effect is optional.
