| Clear Body |
This Pokémon cannot have its stats lowered by other Pokémon. This ability does not prevent any stat losses other than stat modifiers, such as the Speed cut from paralysis. This Pokémon can still be passed negative stat modifiers through guard-swap, heart-swap, or power-swap. This ability functions identically to white-smoke in battle. |
| Liquid Ooze |
Whenever a Pokémon would heal after hitting this Pokémon with a leeching move like absorb, it instead loses as many HP as it would usually gain. dream-eater is unaffected. |
