Klutz (Japanese: ぶきよう Clumsy) is an ability introduced in Generation IV. Two Pokémon have this ability, both from the same evolutionary line.

Effect

In battle

Klutz prevents the use of held items. The ability disables the effect of the held item, rather than preventing an item from being held. However, items which affect EXP, such as the Lucky Egg, can still be used. Also, items which affect Effort values, such as the Power Weight, can be used. Therefore, Klutz deactivates items with battle effects.

Outside of battle

Klutz has no effect outside of battle.
