Moves cannot score critical hits against this Pokémon.

This ability functions identically to shell armor.

Hard armor protects the Pokémon from critical hits.

Battle Armor

All other Pokémon's single-target electric-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon if it is an eligible target.  Other Pokémon's Electric 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.

If the Pokémon is a ground-type and thus immune to Electric moves, its immunity prevents the Special Attack boost.

The Pokémon draws in all Electric-type moves. Instead of taking damage from them, its Sp. Atk stat is boosted.

Lightning Rod

This Pokémon does not receive recoil damage from its recoil moves.

struggle's recoil is unaffected.  This ability does not prevent crash damage from missing with jump kick or high jump kick.

Protects the Pokémon from recoil damage.
