Non-Totem Pokémon are more likely to call for help after the player sends out a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}}, {{a|Pressure}} or {{a|Unnerve}} as its Ability or uses an [[Adrenaline Orb]]. The Adrenaline Orb can only be used once per battle and will fail if used repeatedly (wasting a turn without being consumed). | Non-Totem Pokémon are more likely to call for help after the player sends out a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}}, {{a|Pressure}} or {{a|Unnerve}} as its Ability, has their Pokémon immediately use supereffective moves on new allies called into battle<ref>[http://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/special-pokemon-answer-the-call-for-help-in-sos-battles/ Special Pokémon Answer the Call for Help in SOS Battles | Pokemon.com]</ref>, or uses an [[Adrenaline Orb]].
