-Despite the games's description of this ability ("(Pokémon)'s Intimidade cuts (Foe)'s attack!"), Intimidate lowers the opponent's {{stat|Attack}} stat by just one stage upon entering the battle, not three. It is triggered both when a battle begins and when a Pokémon with Intimidate switches in.  In a [[double battle]], both opponents are affected.

 Intimidate has no effect on Pokémon who are immune to stat reductions, such as Pokémon with {{a|Clear Body}}, {{a|Hyper Cutter}}, or {{a|White Smoke}}.
