Magic Bounce

Magic Bounce

Ability ID	magic_bounce
Description	Reflects moves that cause status conditions.

Magic Bounce is an ability in PMDO.

Effects

Magic Bounce reflects the effect of almost all status moves that target the user back to the original Pokémon. Magic Bounce only protects its user; nearby allies can still be affected by the same move.

Moves that involve directly healing the Pokémon, such as Life Dew and Morning Sun, will not be reflected by Magic Bounce. However, moves that heal the Pokémon via a temporary status effect, such as Wish, will be reflected.

Strategy

Using Magic Bounce

• Magic Bounce can both help and harm the user; while it will reflect any negative status effects the enemy uses, it can also reflect allies' beneficial status moves, such as Aqua Ring. The player must take into consideration which of their team's support moves will not affect the Pokémon.
