Volt Absorb (Japanese: ちくでん Electricity Storage) is an Ability introduced in Generation III.
Effect
In battle
Generation III
When a Pokémon with Volt Absorb is hit by a damaging Electric-type move, its HP is restored by one quarter of its maximum HP, and the move will have no effect on that Pokémon (if a Pokémon with this Ability already has full HP, the Electric-type move will do nothing).
Volt Absorb will not activate if the Pokémon is protected from the Electric-type move.
Generation IV onward
Volt Absorb will now activate when a Pokémon with it is hit by an Electric-type status move.
If a Pokémon with Volt Absorb is holding a Cell Battery, Volt Absorb absorbs the move, so the Cell Battery's effect is not triggered.
Outside of battle
Volt Absorb has no effect outside of battle.
