Wonder Guard (Ability): Difference between revisions

Wonder Guard makes the Pokémon with this Ability immune to damaging moves that are not [[super effective]].

Wonder Guard is bypassed by {{DL|Type|typeless}} damaging moves. This means Wonder Guard doesn't prevent damage from {{m|Beat Up}}, {{m|Future Sight}} or {{m|Doom Desire}} (as these are considered typeless prior to Generation V), or {{m|Struggle}}.

Wonder Guard does not prevent indirect damage such as damage from {{status|burn}}, {{status|poison}}, {{status|confusion}}, [[weather]], [[recoil]] or {{FB|List of moves that cause|entry hazards}}

Wonder Guard does not affect [[status move]]s, such as {{m|Tail Whip}} or {{m|Poison Powder}}.

Wonder Guard prevents damage from {{cat|moves that deal direct damage}}, as long as they are not a type that is super effective against the Pokémon with this Ability. For example, Shedinja with Wonder Guard is immune to {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Psywave}}, but not {{m|Night Shade}}.

{{m|Role Play}} fails if the target has the Ability Wonder Guard. {{m|Skill Swap}} fails if either Pokémon has Wonder Guard.

Fire Fang can no longer bypass Wonder Guard.

 

Damaging typeless moves no longer bypass Wonder Guard, with the exception of {{m|Struggle}}.

 

Wonder Guard cannot be copied by {{a|Power of Alchemy}} or {{a|Receiver}}. Wonder Guard can be bypassed by {{cat|moves that ignore Abilities}}. {{a|Wandering Spirit}} will not swap Abilities with Wonder Guard.
