Swarm (Japanese: むしのしらせ Bug Notification) is an Ability introduced in Generation III. Twenty-four Pokémon have this Ability, all of which are Bug-type.
Effect
In battle
When a Pokémon with Swarm uses a Bug-type move, the power will increase by 1.5× if the user has less than or equal to ⅓ of its maximum HP remaining.
Outside of battle
If the Pokémon leading the party has Swarm, the chance of encountering wild Pokémon increases. In Pokémon Emerald, this Ability also increases the rate in which the cries of wild Pokémon could be heard on the field.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon
Swarm will do double the damage if the Pokémon using it is below 25% of its HP.
Pokémon Conquest
In Pokémon Conquest, Swarm will increase user's Attack if the Pokémon using it is below ⅓ of its HP.
Pokémon with Swarm
In the anime
Swarm is yet to appear in the anime, though Ash's Sewaddle was confirmed to have this Ability in A Connoisseur's Revenge! by Burgundy. It is unknown if he still has the Ability as a Leavanny, due to it having passed the Swadloon stage, where it cannot have kept Swarm as its Ability.
Trivia
- Swarm is the only variation of the Ability Overgrow found in the wild in the games. The other three are only obtainable either on starter Pokémon or as a Hidden Ability.
