Flavor text

Generation IV

Generation VI
Moves can be used on the target regardless of its Abilities.

Generation VII
Moves can be used on the target regardless of its Abilities.

Generation VIII

Generation IX
The Pokémon's moves are unimpeded by the Ability of the target.

Mold Breaker (Japanese: かたやぶり Mold-Breaking) is an Ability introduced in Generation IV.

Effect

In battle

Main article: Ignoring Abilities

When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, the effects of all Pokémon's ignorable Abilities are ignored for the execution of that move. (Ignorable Abilities are most Abilities that could potentially negatively affect the success, damage, or effects of a move if possessed by the target of a move or its allies.) For example, a Pokémon with Mold Breaker that uses Earthquake can hit opponents that have Levitate.

In Generation IV, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "<name> has Mold Breaker!" is displayed. From Generation V onward, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "<name> breaks the mold!" is displayed.

Generation IV

Flower Gift will increase the Attack of allies with Mold Breaker, even when they are attacking the ally with Flower Gift.

Generation V onward

If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker forces a Pokémon to switch in by using a move that switches the target out (such as Roar or Dragon Tail), ignorable Abilities are ignored when applying entry hazards. For example, a Pokémon with Levitate switched in this way will be affected by Spikes and Toxic Spikes (unless it is also ungrounded for other reasons); if a Poison-type Pokémon with Levitate is switched in this way, it will remove Toxic Spikes from its side of the field (unless it is also ungrounded for other reasons).

If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker attacks, it does not gain Attack due to an ally's Flower Gift.

Generation VIII onward

Mold Breaker no longer ignores Dark Aura and Fairy Aura, though it will still ignore Aura Break.

Outside of battle

Mold Breaker has no effect outside of battle.

 ==Effect==
 ===In battle===
-Mold Breaker ignores the effects of {{Abilities}} that could potentially affect the damage or effects of a move that its user executes. For example, a Pokémon with Mold Breaker can hit opponents that possess {{a|Levitate}} by using {{m|Earthquake}}. Mold Breaker applies regardless of target Pokémon, but only to moves executed by its user (so if two Pokémon in a [[Double Battle]] both know Earthquake, only the Pokémon with Mold Breaker can hit a Pokémon with Levitate).
+{{main|Ignoring Abilities}}
+When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, the effects of all Pokémon's {{DL|Ignoring Abilities|ignorable Abilities}} are ignored for the execution of that move. (Ignorable Abilities are most Abilities that could potentially negatively affect the success, damage, or effects of a move if possessed by the target of a move or its allies.) For example, a Pokémon with Mold Breaker that uses {{m|Earthquake}} can hit opponents that have {{a|Levitate}}.
-Unlike {{m|Gastro Acid}}, which completely negates a target's Ability, the opponents' Abilities otherwise remain in effect:
-* Abilities that prevent status conditions (such as {{a|Immunity}} and {{a|Oblivious}}) will not protect the Pokémon from receiving the status condition; however, many of these Abilities also have effects to cure the Pokémon of the status condition if afflicted, which are not negated by Mold Breaker.
-* Abilities that draw attacks to the user, such as {{a|Lightning Rod}} and {{a|Storm Drain}}, will still divert attacks regardless of Mold Breaker, but will not nullify the damage or boost the Pokémon's stats.
-Mold Breaker can ignore the Abilities of Pokémon other than the target; for example, if a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses {{m|Thunder Wave}} on a {{type|Grass}} Pokémon whose ally has {{a|Flower Veil}}, the target will still be {{status|paralyzed}}.
-If a Pokémon with {{a|Own Tempo}} consumes a held {{cat|Berries that may cause confusion|Berry that may cause confusion}} in response to the move of a Pokémon with Mold Breaker, it will become confused if it dislikes the [[flavor]] (although Own Tempo will then activate and cure it of confusion).
+In Generation IV, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "'''<name> has Mold Breaker!'''" is displayed. From Generation V onward, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "'''<name> breaks the mold!'''" is displayed.
-In Generation IV, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "'''<name> has Mold Breaker!'''" is displayed. In Generation V onward, when a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is brought out, the message "'''<name> breaks the mold!'''" is displayed.
 ====Generation IV====
@@ Line 30: / Line 27: @@
 ====Generation V onward====
-If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker forces a Pokémon to switch in with a move like {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Dragon Tail}}, immunities to [[entry hazard]]s due to Abilities will be negated (except {{a|Magic Guard}}). If forced to switch in this way:
+If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker forces a Pokémon to switch in by using a {{cat|Moves that switch the target out|move that switches the target out}} (such as {{m|Roar}} or {{m|Dragon Tail}}), ignorable Abilities are ignored when applying [[entry hazard]]s. For example, a Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} switched in this way will be affected by {{m|Spikes}} and {{m|Toxic Spikes}} (unless it is also [[grounded|ungrounded]] for other reasons); if a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with Levitate is switched in this way, it will remove Toxic Spikes from its side of the field (unless it is also ungrounded for other reasons).
-* Pokémon with {{a|Levitate}} will be affected by {{m|Spikes}} and {{m|Toxic Spikes}}, unless they are {{type|Flying}} or holding an [[Air Balloon]].
-** {{type|Poison}} Pokémon with Levitate can remove Toxic Spikes, if they are not Flying-type and not holding an Air Balloon.
-* Pokémon with {{a|Immunity}} will be {{status|poison}}ed by Toxic Spikes (although Immunity will then activate and cure them of poison).
-* Pokémon with {{a|Leaf Guard}} will be {{status|poison}}ed by Toxic Spikes even during [[harsh sunlight]].
-* Pokémon with {{a|Clear Body}} or {{a|White Smoke}} will have their {{stat|Speed}} lowered by {{m|Sticky Web}}.
-* {{type|Grass}} Pokémon that have or have an ally with {{a|Flower Veil}} will be poisoned by Toxic Spikes, and will have their Speed lowered by Sticky Web.
-In Generation VI, a Pokémon with {{a|Overcoat}} will be affected by {{cat|powder and spore moves}} as well.
+If a Pokémon with Mold Breaker attacks, it does not gain {{stat|Attack}} due to an ally's Flower Gift.
-When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, even the effects of allies' Abilities (notably {{a|Flower Gift}}, {{a|Sweet Veil}}, {{a|Aroma Veil}} and {{a|Flower Veil}}) are ignored for the duration of that move. As such, if the move of a Pokémon with Mold Breaker triggers an Ability (such as {{a|Gooey}} or {{a|Cursed Body}}) or item (such as [[Destiny Knot]]), the Pokémon with Mold Breaker will not be protected by its allies' Abilities; likewise, if a Destiny Knot held by a Pokémon with Mold Breaker is activated during the use of its own move (such as in response to the target's {{a|Cute Charm}}), that target will not be protected by its allies' Aroma Veil. This also means that a Pokémon with Mold Breaker will not gain {{stat|Attack}} due to an ally's Flower Gift.
+====Generation VIII onward====
+Mold Breaker no longer ignores {{a|Dark Aura}} and {{a|Fairy Aura}}, though it will still ignore Aura Break.
-====Abilities affected====
-Mold Breaker ignores the following Abilities, even in situations where the Ability could increase the power of a move (such as using {{m|Low Kick}} on a Pokémon with {{a|Heavy Metal}} or using a {{type|Fire}} move on a Pokémon with {{a|Dry Skin}}):
