Status condition (UNITE): Difference between revisions

'''Status conditions''' are effects that a Pokémon can gain as a result of using or being hit by attacks in {{g|UNITE}}. Some other items and interactive objects can grant or inflict status conditions.  The menu listing out some of these effects in the {{DL|Pokémon UNITE|Battle Guide}} is labelled '''Conditions'''. They are analogous to [[status condition]]s from the [[core series|core series games]], but many function a little differently from their core series counterparts. The symbol of a status condition is displayed above the Pokémon it is affecting, and some of them also display the full name of the condition. Status conditions go away on their own, either because the move granting them has concluded or just because they only have a specific duration. Some {{Abilities}} and {{UNITE|move}}s care about if a Pokémon is being affected by a status condition. One example of this is {{UNITE|Gengar}}'s {{m|Hex}}. Some less common effects serve to cure status conditions from Pokémon, such as {{UNITE|Wigglytuff}}'s {{DL|Wigglytuff|Unite Move|Starlight Recital}}. Some moves, {{UNITE|basic attack}}s, and Abilities use status conditions largely unique to them.
