Flavor text
Generation III
Avoids sound-based moves.

Cacophony (Japanese: そうおん Noise) is an ability introduced in Generation III (unused and thus dropped in Generation IV), that avoids sound-based moves. This ability is identical to Soundproof, but only usable in Generation III games.

Cacophony is an ability coded in the Generation III games, but no Pokémon have it. It can be acquired by hacking the game or using a cheating device. Since no Pokémon have the ability by normal means, it was removed from the coding of the Generation IV games.

Due to its use on the Exploud released in Great Encounters, it is possible that this ability was initially intended to be that of Loudred and Exploud, while Whismur had Soundproof. The reason for the change is unknown, however, as several other abilities are equivalent in effect to another (such as Air Lock and Cloud Nine).
