When the user is hit by a [[contact]] move, the attacking Pokémon's Ability is turned into Mummy, overwriting the Pokémon's previous Ability.   Besides spreading Mummy in battle, the Ability does not have any other effect. The affected Pokémon's Ability returns to normal when they are [[recall|returned to their Poké Ball]].
When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a move that makes [[contact]], the Ability of the attacking Pokémon will become Mummy. Besides spreading Mummy in battle, the Ability does not have any other effect.


If {{a|Rock Head}} is lost in a turn due to using a recoil-inducing contact move on a Pokémon with Mummy, the HP loss from recoil will occur that turn.
If a Pokémon with {{a|Rock Head}} uses a [[recoil]] contact move on a Pokémon with Mummy, the Pokémon will take recoil damage. If a Pokémon with {{a|Parental Bond}} uses a contact move on a Pokémon with Mummy, the Pokémon's Ability will be changed, then it will continue to hit a second time.


{{a|Multitype}}, {{a|Stance Change}}, and Mummy itself are the only Abilities not affected by Mummy.
