Storm Drain

Essentials

Storm Drain

Generation 4

Summary

Redirects single-target Water moves to this Pokémon where possible. Absorbs Water moves, raising Special Attack one stage.

Effect

All other Pokémon's single-target Water-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon, if it is an eligible target. Other Pokémon's Water moves raise this Pokémon's Special Attack one stage, negating any other effect on it, and cannot miss it.

If the move's intended target also has this ability, the move is not redirected. When multiple Pokémon with this ability are possible targets for redirection, the move is redirected to the one with the highest Speed stat, or, in the case of a tie, to a random tied Pokémon. Follow Me takes precedence over this ability.

History

Before: Redirects Water moves without negating them or granting any Special Attack boost. Does not redirect Hidden Power.
