Talk:Poison Touch (Ability)

Variation of Poison Point

It seems to have the same effect; does it vary at all, and even so, would it still count as a variation? --Andy^P_K^M_N 19:46, 7 October 2010 (UTC)

Based on the description in the section that says 'Battle Effects', I thought that it made all contact moves have a 30% chance of poison, which doesn't sound like a variation of poison point. Can someone with Black or White confirm this? Poisson14 17:26, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Name

First, if the name is confirmed ignore this. I know other fansites aren't reliable sources, but doesn't "Poison Hand" fit the effect and the pokemon who can have it better?

We thought about that; however, Poison hand doesn't sound like much of an ability name, does it? We went with a more appropriate translation that fits closer grammatically. ^Maverick_Nate 15:40, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
