::::The context is confusing: "with the second attack being half as strong as the first. This only affects moves that do damage." Of course damage (actually it is the power and not the damage) can only be halved by offensive moves. But it does not sound unambiguous. Nowhere in the description cleary stands that Status Moves are excluded. Perpaps it would be good to write "This ''ablility'' only affects moves that do damage." instead. - Pokémon [[User:Pokémon|<sub>Questions?</sub>]] -- 15:11, 11 January 2014 (UTC) | ::::The context is confusing: "with the second attack being half as strong as the first.

:::::How is it not clear that status moves aren't affected? You just said that it's obvious only damage can be halved. The first sentence makes it apparent that it only affects damaging moves, the second sentence clarifies it. It doesn't matter if "This" is referring to the Ability or its effect, there's no difference between them. If the Ability had a second affect, further clarification would be needed but it doesn't. The Ability only affects damaging moves, so it's effects must only apply to damaging moves and vice versa.

::::::I know I'm late to the party, but if I may interject? To put a long story short, moves like Howl, Swords Dance, Recover, and those moves within the Status category are only performed once with a Parental Bond wielding Pokemon. --[[User:IM-T-MAN2|IM-T-MAN2]] ([[User talk:IM-T-MAN2|talk]]) 01:38, 30 October 2015 (UTC) | |||
