Simple (Japanese: たんじゅん Simplicity) is an ability introduced in Generation IV that doubles the potency of stat modifying moves, both positive and negative. In this way, if Defense Curl is used, Defense will be doubled instead of multiplied by 1.5 times; likewise, if Tail Whip is used against this Pokémon, its Defense will be halved. Three Pokémon have this ability, all of them in the Ground egg group.
