'''Shield Dust''' (Japanese: '''りんぷん''' ''Moth Scales'') is an [[ability]] that ''prevents added effects.'' Five [[Pokémon]] have this ability. By "preventing added effects", it essentially negates all possible side-effects whose probability would be boosted by {{a|Serene Grace}}; any side-effect ([[Status ailment#Paralysis|Paralysis]] from {{m|Body Slam}}, for instance) would be stopped. However, it does not stop [[move]]s that only cause these effects, and not damage, like {{m|Thunder Wave}}. | '''Shield Dust''' (Japanese: '''りんぷん''' ''Moth Scales'') is an [[ability]] that ''prevents added effects.''
