Effect Details

Badly Poisons the target, inflicting 1/16 its max HP in damage during its next turn and doubling every turn thereafter.

Notes, Changes, Bugs, Etc

Before G/S/C: Bugged. Used the same counter as Leech Seed, so if a Pokémon were affected by both, that Pokémon would have as much HP leeched every turn as it lost to the poisoning.

Flavor Text

Poisons the foe with an intensifying toxin.
