Quark Drive クォークチャージ
Quark Charge
Flavor text
Generation IX
Boosts the Pokémon's most proficient stat on Electric Terrain or if the Pokémon is holding Booster Energy.

Quark Drive (Japanese: クォークチャージ Quark Charge) is an Ability introduced in Generation IX. It is the signature Ability of the futuristic Paradox Pokémon with the exception of Miraidon.

Effect

In battle

385Jirachi.png This Ability effect may be in need of research.
Reason: Check for other moves/Abilities that can or cannot copy/replace/suppress this Ability. Usual suspects: Simple Beam, Role Play, Entrainment, Trace, Receiver/Power of Alchemy, Lingering Aroma/Mummy.
You can discuss this on the talk page.

When a Pokémon with Quark Drive is on the field and Electric Terrain is active, or the Pokémon is holding Booster Energy, its highest stat (other than HP and taking into account stat stages, but not held items) is increased by 30%, or 50% if Speed is the highest stat. Upon activation, a message tells which stat is increased to all the players.

Quark Drive will activate even if the Pokémon is not grounded. Electric Terrain will activate Quark Drive before a held Booster Energy, so the Booster Energy will not be consumed if the Pokémon with Quark Drive is on Electric Terrain.

Skill Swap and Doodle will fail if either Pokémon has Quark Drive. Worry Seed and Gastro Acid will fail if the target has Quark Drive.

Outside of battle

Quark Drive has no effect outside of battle.
