A Pokémon with this Ability will be cured of confusion if it is confused while in battle (such as if it gains the Ability by an effect like {{m|Skill Swap}}, or is confused by a Pokémon with an Ability like {{a|Mold Breaker}}); however, it will not be cured of confusion until after the next Pokémon uses an attack if it is obtained by {{m|Baton Pass}}. If the Pokémon is holding a [[Persim Berry]] or a [[Lum Berry]], it will be eaten before Own Tempo cures the Pokémon of confusion.
