Nintendo Ability: Moxie


Back to list

Moxie

Categories: Raises Stats
Pokémon with this Ability love the feeling of victory so much that their Attack stat is raised by one stage every time they KO a Pokémon through direct damage, including its own allies. This Ability does not activate if a Pokémon is KOed through non-direct means, such as terrain hazards, status ailments, other Abilities or damaging weather, nor does it activate if a doubles or triples ally KOs another Pokémon.
If a Pokémon with Moxie defeats a Pokémon with Mummy using a contact move, the attacking Pokémon's Ability will turn to Mummy before the attack boost is given.

Boosts Attack after knocking out any Pokémon.
