Levitate renders the user immune to most {{type|Ground}} moves (except for {{m|Sand Attack}} and {{m|Thousand Arrows}}), {{m|Spikes}}, {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, {{m|Misty Terrain}}, {{m|Grassy Terrain}}, {{m|Electric Terrain}}, {{a|Arena Trap}}, and damage from {{m|Sky Drop}}. These immunities can be lost if the Pokémon with Levitate is holding an {{DL|In-battle effect item|Iron Ball}}, is under the effects of {{m|Gravity}} or {{m|Ingrain}}, has been hit by {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}, has had its ability suppressed by {{m|Gastro Acid}}, or if the opponent has {{a|Mold Breaker}}, {{a|Teravolt}}, or {{a|Turboblaze}}.
Levitate renders the Pokémon with this Ability immune to damaging {{type|Ground}} moves (except {{m|Thousand Arrows}}) and the damage from {{m|Sky Drop}}. It also is unaffected by the effects of {{a|Arena Trap}}, {{m|Spikes}}, {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, {{m|Sticky Web}}, {{m|Rototiller}}, and {{cat|Moves that change terrain|terrain}}. Additionally, a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with Levitate cannot remove Toxic Spikes.


Many Pokémon with this Ability are eligible to enter [[Sky Battle]]s; however, some Pokémon—such as {{p|Gengar}}—are ineligible, due to them making a contact with the ground when entering the battle.
These immunities are lost during {{m|Gravity}} or if the Pokémon with Levitate is holding an {{DL|In-battle effect item|Iron Ball}}, is under the effects of {{m|Ingrain}}, or has been hit by {{m|Smack Down}} or {{m|Thousand Arrows}}. This Ability can also be suppressed by {{m|Gastro Acid}} or ignored by {{a|Mold Breaker}}, {{a|Teravolt}}, or {{a|Turboblaze}}.
