Unaware (Ability): Difference between revisions

This article is about the Ability that involves stat changes. For the Ability with a synonymous meaning, see Oblivious (Ability).

Unaware (Japanese: てんねん Doofus) is an Ability introduced in Generation IV. As of Generation V, seven Pokémon have this Ability. Prior to Generation V, it was the Signature Ability of Bidoof and Bibarel.

Effect

In battle

Unaware ignores the foe's positive or negative stat changes, with the exception of Speed. For example, if the foe uses Iron Defense, and a Pokémon with this Ability uses a physical move on the foe, the damage dealt will be the same as if Iron Defense was not used. Likewise, if the foe has previously been affected by Tail Whip, damage dealt to it by the Pokémon with Unaware will be as if Tail Whip had not been used.

Outside of battle

Unaware has no effect outside of battle.
