Motor Drive (Japanese: でんきエンジン Electric Engine) is an Ability introduced in Generation IV. Four Pokémon can have this Ability, all of which are Template:Type2. Prior to Generation V, it was the signature ability of Electivire.
Effect
In battle
Motor Drive neutralizes the damage and effects of Template:Type2 moves and increases the speed of the Pokémon hit by the move. Each time a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by an Electric-type move, its speed increases by one stage. Motor Drive also prevents a Cell Battery from activating.
Outside of battle
Motor Drive has no effect outside of battle.
