Spanish: Poder Oculto.

Mechanics

Hidden Power can receive same-type attack bonus. A Bug-type Pokémon will receive same-type attack bonus when using a Bug-type Hidden Power. Although Hidden Power is normal-type in the game's data, a normal-type Hidden Power is not obtainable. Because of this, a normal-type Pokémon will never receive same-type attack bonus when using Hidden Power.

Due to the game treating Hidden Power like a Normal-type attack, Mirror Coat will not work against any Hidden Power, but Counter always will, unless the attack fails for some other reason (such as immunity).
