This Ability | ====Generation V==== | ||
This Ability inverts all changes to the stat stages of a Pokémon with this Ability; if an effect would lower a stat, it is increased instead, and if an effect would increase a stat, it is decreased instead. Effects that change a Pokémon's stats without affecting stat stages, such as {{a|Guts}} and {{status|paralysis}}, are not affected by Contrary. | |||
This also applies to self-inflicted | This also applies to self-inflicted changes, such as {{m|Curse}} and {{m|Leaf Storm}}. This Ability only inverts the changes when they are applied; it does not passively cause all existing changes to reverse; therefore, if the Ability Contrary is no longer in effect or the stats are passed by {{m|Baton Pass}}, all existing stat stage changes remain the same. Stats passed by Baton Pass onto a Pokémon with Contrary are not reversed. | ||
{{m|Mist}} (including from [[Guard Spec.]]) takes into account Contrary's inversion before determining whether to block the stat change. For example, if a Pokémon with Contrary is targeted by {{m|String Shot}} while protected by Mist, it will gain Speed; if a Pokémon with Contrary is targeted by {{m|Swagger}} while protected by Mist, its Attack will not be changed. | |||
If a Pokémon with Contrary uses {{m|Belly Drum}}, its {{stat|Attack}} will be lowered to -6 stages (although the message will still say that the user maximized its Attack); if the user's Attack is already at -6 stages, Belly Drum will still deduct HP. Even if the user has Contrary, Belly Drum fails if the user's Attack is already at +6. | |||
If a move used by a Pokémon with {{a|Mold Breaker}}, {{a|Teravolt}}, or {{a|Turboblaze}} would change a stat stage of a Pokémon with Contrary, the change will not be inverted. | |||
====Generation VI==== | |||
{{a|Flower Veil}} takes into account Contrary's inversion before determining whether to block the stat change. | |||
Stat boosts granted by [[O-Power]]s used by other players are still inverted. | |||
====Generation VII==== | |||
Stat stage increases caused by the Z-Power effects of [[status move|status]] [[Z-Move]]s are not inverted by Contrary. However, the stat stage increases as a result of {{m|Extreme Evoboost}} and {{m|Clangorous Soulblaze}} are inverted. | |||
If a target with Contrary is affected by {{m|Strength Sap}}, even if its Attack stat is at +6 stages, Strength Sap will restore the user's HP by up to the target's effective Attack stat value at +5 stages. | |||
====Generation VIII==== | |||
If a Pokémon with Contrary is hit with a [[Max Move]] that would lower stats, or uses a Max Move that would raise stats, the change will be inverted, but the message describing the stat change will not be displayed. | |||
