White Smoke (Japanese: しろいけむり White Smoke) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. All Pokémon that have this Ability are Fire types. Prior to Generation V, it was the signature Ability of Torkoal.

Effect

In battle

White Smoke prevents stat reduction caused by other Pokémon's moves and Abilities (such as Scary Face and Intimidate). White Smoke does not prevent self-inflicted stat reductions such as from moves like Superpower or Hammer Arm.

White Smoke only protects from effects that lower stat stages, so it does not prevent stat reduction from items like the Iron Ball, the status conditions paralysis or burn, or the moves Guard Split or Power Split. White Smoke does not prevent stat stages being directly modified by Heart Swap, Guard Swap, Power Swap, Baton Pass, or Topsy-Turvy.

This Ability is ignored by Pokémon with Mold Breaker, Teravolt, and Turboblaze.

Outside of battle

From Pokémon Emerald onwards, if a Pokémon with White Smoke is leading the party, then White Smoke decreases the wild Pokémon encounter rate by 50%.
