Storm Drain
Spanish name: Colector
Effect
The Pokémon draws in all Water-type moves. Instead of taking damage from them, its Sp. Atk stat is boosted.
All other Pokémon's single-target Water-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon, if it is an eligible target. Other Pokémon's Water 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.
Changes by generation
How this ability worked in older games:
- Before Black & White: If this Pokemon is not the target of a single-target Water-type move used by another Pokemon, this Pokemon redirects that move to itself. This ability counts hidden power as normal type.
