Guard Dog

Reference

Overview

Guard Dog blocks drag-out switches and turns Intimidate into an Attack rise.

How it works

  1. When it acts

    When the bearer would be forced out or Intimidated.
  2. Who it affects

    The bearer.
  3. Effect

    Dragging moves fail, and Intimidate raises Attack instead of lowering it.

Example

Setup: Mabosstiff with Guard Dog is Intimidated, then targeted by a dragging move.

Outcome: Mabosstiff's Attack rises one stage and it stays in.
