Cute Charm (Japanese: メロメロボディ Mad Love Body) is an Ability introduced in Generation III.
Effect
In battle
When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a move that makes contact, there is a 30% chance that the attacking Pokémon will become infatuated if it is of the opposite gender to the Pokémon with this Ability. This Ability will not activate if the Pokémon with this Ability is genderless.
If a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a multi-strike move that makes contact (such as Fury Swipes), each hit has an independent chance to activate this Ability.
Outside of battle
From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with Cute Charm is in the first place in the party (even if fainted), there is a 66.7% chance that the game will force an encountered Pokémon to be the opposite gender from the Pokémon with Cute Charm if it can be that gender. This does not affect a swarming Pokémon species or Pokémon found in Hidden Grottos.
Effects on personality value
In Generation IV, when Cute Charm forces a Pokémon to be a specific gender, it does so by modifying its personality value to one of 5 sets of 25 possible values (one for each nature). The set used depends on the gender of the Pokémon with Cute Charm, and if the Pokémon with Cute Charm is female, the wild Pokémon's gender ratio. This has significant consequences for properties determined by personality value.
As a result, in Generation IV only certain Trainer ID number and Secret ID combinations allow Pokémon whose genders are forced by Cute Charm to be Shiny, and each of these combinations only corresponds to between 1 and 8 of the possible personality values from one particular set. However, for Trainer ID and Secret ID combinations for which gender-manipulated Pokémon can be Shiny, there is an overall 21.34% chance for these Pokémon to be Shiny if the combination corresponds to 8 personality values in the set, and a 2.67% chance if the combination corresponds to 1 personality value in the set.
Additionally, Spinda whose gender has been forced by Cute Charm in Generation IV only have one of 50 patterns (25 for male, 25 for female).
