Fairy Aura (Ability)

Fairy Aura (Japanese: フェアリーオーラ Fairy Aura) is an Ability introduced in Generation VI. It is the signature Ability of Xerneas.

Effect

In battle

Fairy Aura increases the power of Fairy-type attacks by approximately 33% (or more accurately, by a factor of 5448/4096) for all Pokémon on the field. This effect is inverted by Aura Break, instead dividing the power of Fairy-type attacks by 4/3, resulting in a 25% reduction in damage.

The effects will not stack multiple times if more than one Pokémon has this Ability.

Outside of battle

Fairy Aura has no effect outside of battle.
