Characteristics

[Don't Run With Scizors]

Compound Eyes Accuracy of its attacks increases. <-- how much?

By 50%. Meaning, a Butterfree's Sleep Powder has an accuracy of 100%.

Rain Saucer When Raining, it is healed little by little. <-- And yet again, how much?

Probably heals like Leftovers does; 6.25% each turn.

Find Stuff Picks up items. <-- does it do anything in battle?

If the bearer has no item, it picks up random ones during battle.

nope. too bad.

Needle Cutter Attack is high, but needles break easily...

attack +, accuracy -. from what i've heard anyway.

and what i meant in "team misfit" is that, well, teams named like that are usually underused teams. and in rby, chansey and starmie are, well, light years away from underused. they're also really popular in gsc too (well, at least blissey is, instead of chansey)... and if it's for gsc, there's marowak. and he's DEFINITELY not underused. o_O;

[Ace Blaze]

For Needle Cutter, is it specific for needle attacks (Pin Missile, Twin Needle)? Also, "needles break easily", it doesn't make sense if the accuracy is lowered....

[Chrisodeo]

It's most likely a mistranslation about Needle Cutter. It definitely has Atk + & Acc -. I've a few questions of my own.

Stench It becomes difficult for wild Pokemon to approach. - If a pokemon has this, does it work like Repel, or is it like a no-wild-battle code? Also, any in-battle effects?

Moisture No one can use Moves on themselves. - Is this like the Taunt move? Or just stat-upping moves (Recover, Agility, etc)?

Sand Fall During Sandstorm, EVADE rises. - Every turn, or just once? Does the evasion mod last the whole battle? And is it activated every time Sandstorm is used?

Electro Storage Becomes healed when struck by Electric moves.
Reservoir Healed when hit by Water moves.
Sun Reception Becomes stronger when hit by Fire moves. - How much? (This wasn't answered before)

Spore When harmed, puts spores on the enemy. - How often? Only physical attacks? And what effects?

Heaven's Blessing Additional effects from attacks happen more easily. - How much more easily? (I'm assuming 10%)

Smooth Swim When Raining, Speed increases.
Chlorophyll When Sunny, Speed increases. - Every turn? If not, every time the move is used? And does Speed boost disappear with weather?

Luminescence It becomes easier for wild Pokemon to approach. - Like a natural Sweet Scent? Any in-battle effects?

Mind Power Cannot miss. - Wrong. Prevents flinching. Not a question, but a correction.

Early Rising Wakes up quickly. - How much more often?

"Attract" Body When harmed, makes the enemy Attracted. - Again, how often? And, just physical attacks?

Mystery Scale Defense increases when it has a Status condition. - Which ones? Attract & confusion along with Plz, Psn, Frz, & Brn?

Yoga Power Attack Power is high. - Are you sure it's Attack? Looks like Special Attack. Might want to double-check that.

- maybe it's something like a repel that works part of the time?

Moisture No one can use Moves on themselves. - Is this like the Taunt move? Or just stat-upping moves (Recover, Agility, etc)?

-whee

Sand Fall During Sandstorm, EVADE rises. - Every turn, or just once? Does the evasion mod last the whole battle? And is it activated every time Sandstorm is used?

-Hi

Electro Storage Becomes healed when struck by Electric moves.
Reservoir Healed when hit by Water moves.
Sun Reception Becomes stronger when hit by Fire moves. - How much? (This wasn't answered before)

-I'd like to know, because my Vulpix has SunReception.

Spore When harmed, puts spores on the enemy. - How often? Only physical attacks? And what effects?

-Around 10% of the time, and not only physical attacks, I experimented with Kinogassa. Spores in question = make the opponent either fall asleep, get paralyzed or poison. Dunno about burn and frz, I think not

Heaven's Blessing Additional effects from attacks happen more easily. - How much more easily? (I'm assuming 10%)

-Twice more often. So a Dunsparce that has Angel Blessing and uses Headbutt flinches 60% of the time! And so Ice beam freezes 20% of the time, Tri Attack inflicts stuff 20% of the time, and so on.

Smooth Swim When Raining, Speed increases.
Chlorophyll When Sunny, Speed increases. - Every turn? If not, every time the move is used? And does Speed boost disappear with weather?

-;.;

Luminescence It becomes easier for wild Pokemon to approach. - Like a natural Sweet Scent? Any in-battle effects?

-I don't think so.

Mind Power Cannot miss. - Wrong. Prevents flinching. Not a question, but a correction.

Early Rising Wakes up quickly. - How much more often?

-Well, apparently with that chara, you only sleep for ONE TURN. Therefore if you use rest, you will sleep, but only for 1 turn!

"Attract" Body When harmed, makes the enemy Attracted. - Again, how often? And, just physical attacks?

-I believe either 50% or 100% of the time when you attack that pokemon with any attack, you get attracted.... Not entirely sure

Mystery Scale Defense increases when it has a Status condition. - Which ones? Attract & confusion along with Plz, Psn, Frz, & Brn?

-I think not attract and confusion

Yoga Power Attack Power is high. - Are you sure it's Attack? Looks like Special Attack. Might want to double-check that.

-Les shruggos.

1. Not even 2 months yet :-p
2. I can still update the pages as I go along
3. I have discovered loads of new things (well, not as many as I want)
4. I dont think I am wrong with most characteristics...maybe like 2, but no more

[Ace Blaze]

Hey, Serebii, when do you think you'll be able to get Serebii.net back to working condition?

[Rei_Zero]

I meant as whole. Like you were up for one week twice but in total you've been down for...
Oh well. Glad to know that when it does go back up we will have tons of good stuff on.

[Dr_Omicron]

Oh well. I guess someone trimmed it down. I was planning to get rid of it when February 1st came around anyway. No big deal.

Anyway, I never heard of the word "misfit" being used in that way. Generally, it was made long ago, during the RBY days. Why did I call it "Team Misfits"? Well, there are a few reasons.

1. Most people who play Pokémon that I've known never make more than one team of Level-100's, if they have the patience to make one in the first place. Since they were part of the SECOND team, they were Misfits in that they didn't fit in with the first-teamers that everyone else has.

2. The first team consists of the three RB starters, Pikachu (a Raichu now), which could be called a starter, Hitmonlee, and Mewtwo, both of which were one-of-a-kind in RBY. There was a theme to that, and that since I was playing Yellow, they were all unique. The next team, Starmie, Magneton, Venomoth, Aerodactyl, Chansey, and Marowak, has nearly nothing in common, and therefore each never belonged with anyone else and were therefore misfits. But it's lost its meaning since, because all of the other teams to come after this one has no theme either.

3. It was the first word that popped up in my head. This is what usually decides the name. If I had thought of "marshmallows", I'd call it "Team Marshmallow". If I was thinking of Santa Claus, I'd name it "Team Santa Claus".

[RyuukoAremi]

I have a question about 'Menace'. Does only the opponent's physical attack go down, or both phys and special attack?

[Madelyn151]

Les shruggos.

encogimiento de hombros. =P and les isn't a definite/indefinite article in spanish, it's an indirect pronoun (i think that's what they're called)... and... erm... yeah. i assume you're trying to imitate spanish.

...and so this isn't TOTALLY off-topic...

menace only lowers the opponent's attack.

i think moisture is just stat-upping moves. and they can probably still use recover. darn. if you use swagger on an opponent and your pokemon has moisture, does their attack increase (politoed gets that, if you were wondering.)?

the spores/emission characteristic can't cause the opponent to be burned or frozen.

stench doesn't work in-battle. neither does luminescence.

mindpower means that your pokemon cannot be flinched. if it meant that you couldn't miss, well, ONIGOORI used ABSOLUTE ZERO! EVERYBODY used BAN! MADELYN used WHINE because every ICE type she hates eventually gets OVERUSED!

i think the attractive body characteristic means 100% of the time. are stolidity pokemon immune to it? i a-s-s/u/me so.

[Charizard]

On Meowth's site, he said the moisture prevents both side from using Explosion...

[rinku]

The term "Shimerike" does translate as "Moisture", but it could possibly be another term, or the context might be different.

Possibly the english translation would more accurately be "Dampen", given the effect?

to view that you need to set the encoding. Whatever :< I don't learn spanish, silly, I learn chinese and I know some Japanese. ^_~

And les shruggos to you too!...

I think the stolidity pokemon are immune to the attractive body trait...

and Serebii, I think Venusaur was referring to your site BEFORE it went down, and it had some pre-game info here and there, so he thought it was right.

I still don't get that needle characteristic, tho.

[Madelyn151]

I still don't get that needle characteristic, tho.

according to pokemon forever, your attacks do 1.5x the damage, but your average accuracy is around 80%...
