Pressure (Japanese: プレッシャー Pressure) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. Twenty-five Pokémon can have this Ability.
Effect
In battle
Generation III
When a Pokémon with Pressure is targeted by a foe's move, one additional PP is deducted upon execution. Consequently, extra PP is deducted even if the foe's move misses, has multiple targets, or is rendered ineffective due to immunity. Pressure applies to allies targeting the Pokémon.
If the move of a Pokémon targets several foes with Pressure, one additional PP will be deducted for each one.
Generation IV
The presence of Pressure is broadcast with the message "<name> is exerting its Pressure!"
This Ability is not affected by Mold Breaker.
Generation V
Pokémon no longer have PP deducted by allies with Pressure.
This Ability is not affected by Teravolt or Turboblaze.
Outside of battle
From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with Pressure is leading the party, then Pressure increases the chance of battling a higher-leveled wild Pokémon by 50%. It shares this effect with Hustle and Vital Spirit.
