Abilities

  • Pickup: The Pokémon may pick up the item an opposing Pokémon used during a battle. It may pick up items outside of battle, too.
  • Thick Fat: The Pokémon is protected by a layer of thick fat, which halves the damage taken from Fire- and Ice-type moves.
  • Gluttony: Makes the Pokémon eat a held Berry when its HP drops to half or less, which is sooner than usual. [Hidden Ability]
