When a pokemon acquires this ability through skill swap, will stat changes already in effect be switched? For example, My deoxys uses Psycho Boost, and then the opponent sends out a serperior. If I use Skill Swap, will my -2 Sp Atk become + Sp Atk? I'm also wondering if this would apply to losing the ability. {{unsigned|Delspencerdeltorro}} | When a pokemon acquires this ability through skill swap, will stat changes already in effect be switched?

No, the stat change remains the same at -2. The ability only reverses stat changes while the ability is active. However, if you wer to use Psycho Boost AGAIN while Dexoys has Contrary, then you will gain +2 Sp. Atk. [[User:Cacaramel|Cacaramel]] ([[User talk:Cacaramel|talk]]) 06:27, 2 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
