Generation IX
When an attack causes its HP to drop to half or less, the Pokémon gets angry. This lowers its Defense and Sp. Def stats but boosts its Attack, Sp. Atk, and Speed stats.

Anger Shell (Japanese: いかりのこうら Anger Shell) is an Ability introduced in Generation IX. It is the signature Ability of Klawf.

Effect

In battle

When the Pokémon's HP falls from over 50% to 50% or lower as a result of an attack from another Pokémon, its Attack, Special Attack, and Speed rise by one stage each, while its Defense and Special Defense fall by one stage each. Non-attack damage (e.g., due to a status condition, recoil, or Life Orb) does not activate Anger Shell. If hit by a multistrike move, Anger Shell activates only after all strikes are finished.

Outside of battle

Anger Shell has no effect outside of battle.
