Ally healing and Heal Block

Ally is healed by up to 50% of their maximum HP. My Porygon2 was healed from 24 to 96 HP, that's difference 72 from its full 145 HP. Heal Block blocks healing via Pollen Puff entirely - if the user is under the effects of Heal Block, it prevents the use of Pollen Puff to heal an ally (but not to attack the opponent); if the ally is under the effects of Heal Block, but Ribombee isn't, it will allow Ribombee to use the move but it will state the ally is under the effect of Heal Block and it won't be healed. Can someone add this to the page please? I'm not exactly sure how to word it. I have all of the battles saved (there's like 3) if anyone's interested. KingisNitro (talk) 11:43, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

Added, thanks. And in general, publishing information to an article is much more valuable than something on a talk page. There's always the edit summary, too. Nescientist (talk) 16:55, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
...and, of course, there's always a chance that whoever transfers it to the article just screws up even more than you ever could! Nescientist (talk) 18:09, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
Haha I know, sorry, and thanks for adding it! I would have added it myself but wasn't sure how to word it and also if anyone wouldn't want to see the proof you know. If it's just "this ability also doesn't work" as is the case with Trace or Skill Swap, I edited those because it's obvious how to do it. I'll try to edit pages in the future directly (I'll try to figure out the wording from other pages). Thanks again! KingisNitro (talk) 10:21, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

Telepathy

Today I discovered that Telepathy protects from ally's Pollen Puff.--Rocket Grunt 10:51, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

translation

um, dango does not translate to ball. there are multiple Japanese words for the word "ball", but dango is not one of them. Pikachu210 (talk) 02:07, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

It says here [1]:

  1. dango; dumpling (usu. sweet); doughboy​
  2. ball-shaped object; something round​
  3. lump; group; bunch; knot; tight crowd​

Parental Bond

If a Pokemon with the Ability Parental Bond targets an ally with Pollen Puff, does it heal only once (for 50%), or does it heal twice? In the latter case, does the second heal heal 50% or 0.25*50%= 12.5%?

I assume it's the same as Present: For Present, the healing version only hits once. --SnorlaxMonster 18:16, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
I finally got around to testing this, I can confirm that Pollen Puff only heals Ally once under Parental Bond ABZB (talk) 21:58, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
