Effect

All other Pokémon's single-target Ghost-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon, if it is an eligible target. Other Pokémon's Ghost moves raise this Pokémon's Special Attack one stage, negating any other effect on it, and cannot miss it.

If the move's intended target also has this ability, the move is not redirected. When multiple Pokémon with this ability are possible targets for redirection, the move is redirected to the one with the highest Speed stat, or, in the case of a tie, to a random tied Pokémon.

Follow Me takes precedence over this ability.

Out-of-Battle Effect

If the lead Pokémon has this ability, there is a 50% chance that encounters will be with a Ghost Pokémon, if applicable.
