Special Traits: Difference between revisions

{{incomplete|needs=Japanese names, when Pokémon start getting Special Traits in Pokémon Rumble, special traits in Pokémon Rumble World}}

'''Special Traits''' (Japanese: '''とおりな''' ''Special titles'') are a game mechanic in the {{g|Rumble}} series.

Some Traits are marked with a "+" or "++" (one to four pluses as of Pokémon Rumble World) after their name; this makes them more potent, with ++ being even more potent than +. Rusty+ does not occur, and all cleansed [[Rusty Pokémon]] will have a Trait+ (or a multi-trait in Rumble World). No Pokémon with a Trait+ can be obtained until the player reaches rank 30 in Pokémon Rumble World.

When a Pokémon with a normal Special Trait (not + or ++) [[Fainting|faints]], it will have a green gear under it prior to Pokémon Rumble World. When a Pokémon with a Special Trait+ or ++ or a Rusty Pokémon faints, it will have a pink gear under it prior to Pokémon Rumble World. In Pokémon Rumble World, all Pokémon with a Special Trait have a gold circle around them instead of a blue one and emit gold sparkles instead of blue ones. Characters with multi-traits have a red circle and sparkles, with the exception of the Epic trait which has a purple circle and sparkles.

Pokemon Rumble Blast uses the same list of Multi Traits as Pokemon Rumble Blast, with the exception that it is now possible to have more than one Pokémon with the Epic trait. Multi-traits will have anywhere from one to six random traits associated with it, while Epic Pokémon will always have six, of which are often stronger than other multi-traits..
