Orichalcum Pulse (Ability): Difference between revisions

Orichalcum Pulse (Japanese: ひひいろのこどう Scarlet Pulse) is an Ability introduced in Generation IX. It is the signature Ability of Koraidon.

Effect

In battle

Orichalcum Pulse summons harsh sunlight in battle as soon as a Pokémon with Orichalcum Pulse enters the battle. Its effects are the same as the move Sunny Day, which lasts only for five turns. This can be extended to eight turns if the Pokémon is holding a Heat Rock.

Orichalcum Pulse also boosts the Pokémon's Attack stat by roughly 30% (or more precisely, by a factor of 5325/4096) in harsh sunlight. The Ability can also activate if another Pokémon on the field (either on the opposing team or on the player's team) previously summoned harsh sunlight via Drought.

Outside of battle

Orichalcum Pulse has no effect outside of battle.
