Water Absorb

Flavor Text

If hit by a Water-type move, the Pokémon has its HP restored instead of taking damage.

Effect

Whenever a Water-type move hits this Pokémon, it heals for 1/4 of its maximum HP, negating any other effect on it. The ability will not activate if this Pokémon is otherwise protected from the move.

Multi-strike moves, such as Water Shuriken, will only activate the ability once.

Water moves will ignore this Pokémon's Substitute.

If this Pokémon is holding an Absorb Bulb or Luminous Moss, Water Absorb absorbs the move, so the item's effect is not triggered.
