When a Pokémon with Quark Drive is on the field and {{m|Electric Terrain}} is active, or the Pokémon is holding [[Booster Energy]], its highest [[stat]] (other than [[HP]] and taking into account [[Stat modifier|stat stages]], but not [[held item]]s) is increased by 30%, or 50% if {{stat|Speed}} is the highest stat. Upon activation, a message tells which stat is increased to all the players. If multiple stats are tied for highest, Quark Drive breaks the tie by prioritizing {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Defense}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and Speed, in that order.

Quark Drive will activate even if the Pokémon is not [[grounded]]. Electric Terrain will activate Quark Drive before a held Booster Energy, so the Booster Energy will not be consumed if the Pokémon with Quark Drive is on Electric Terrain.

{{m|Skill Swap}} and {{m|Doodle}} will fail if either Pokémon has Quark Drive. {{m|Worry Seed}}, {{m|Gastro Acid}}, {{m|Entrainment}}, and {{a|Trace}} will fail if the target has Quark Drive. If a Pokémon obtains Quark Drive with {{a|Imposter}} or {{m|Transform}}, the Ability will not activate regardless of if the Pokémon is on Electric Terrain or holding a Booster Energy.
