Clear Body
Gen IIIThis Pokémon cannot have its stats lowered by other Pokémon. This ability does not prevent any stat losses other than stat modifiers, such as the Speed cut from paralysis. This Pokémon can still be passed negative stat modifiers through Guard Swap, Heart Swap, or Power Swap. This ability functions identically to White Smoke in battle.
Clear Body in Battle
Clear Body prevents all of the Pokemon's stats from being lowered by opposing moves and abilities. This includes Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, Speed, accuracy, and evasion. Moves like Intimidate, Sticky Web, and stat-lowering secondary effects are all blocked.
The protection applies only to reductions caused by opponents. The Pokemon can still lower its own stats through moves like Close Combat or Superpower, and it can receive negative stat changes through Heart Swap, Guard Swap, or Power Swap. Clear Body also does not prevent stat losses from conditions like paralysis (which halves Speed as an inherent effect, not a stat modifier).
Clear Body functions identically to White Smoke and Full Metal Body in battle. It is found on a diverse set of Pokemon including Tentacool/Tentacruel, the Beldum line (Metagross), all three original Regi legendaries (Regirock, Regice, Registeel), Carbink, and Dracozolt.
