Wonder Guard makes the user immune to direct damage moves that are not super effective.
It does not affect moves that do not do damage, such as Tail Whip or Poison Powder. It does not prevent any indirect damage, such as from a burn or poison, weather, recoil damage, or entry hazards.
Wonder Guard also does not block typeless moves from hitting. This includes Struggle, and, prior to Generation V, Beat Up, Future Sight, and Doom Desire. In Generation IV only, due to a presumed glitch, Fire Fang can hit through Wonder Guard even if it would not be super effective.
Wonder Guard cannot be Skill Swapped or copied by Role Play, but it can be Traced. Wonder Guard can be replaced with Simple Beam, Worry Seed, Entrainment or suppressed with Gastro Acid. Additionally, Entrainment can grant Wonder Guard to a target if used by a Pokémon with this Ability.

- In Sneaky Like Shedinja, Greta's Shedinja was mentioned to have Wonder Guard as its Ability.
Trivia

From Generation VI onward, this type combination is now weak to the Fairy type.
- This immunity was showcased with the Pokéstar Studios opponent Majin, requiring the player to inflict burn or change Majin's Ability or type to defeat it.
