More interesting things introduced within Generation IV were other conditions that had nothing to do with the weather, but behaved similarly to the weather-activating moves. Like the weather conditions, these moves would affect all Pokémon on the field for five turns, and in various ways. For example, {{m|Gravity}} makes all Pokémon fall to the ground, enabling all Pokémon to be susceptible to things such as {{type|Ground}} moves, {{m|Spikes}}, {{a|Arena Trap}}, and others; decreases the {{stat|Evasion}} of all Pokémon by two stages; as well as disabling moves like {{m|Fly}} and {{m|Hi Jump Kick}}. {{m|Trick Room}} makes slower Pokémon attack first, and {{m|Tailwind}} doubles the {{stat|Speed}} of the user's team for three turns.
