Staticin Pokémon Polished Crystal

Static is an ability that has a 30% chance of paralyzing an opponent that makes physical contact with the Pokémon possessing this ability. This can be particularly useful in battles, as paralysis not only reduces the opponent's Speed stat but also has a chance to prevent them from attacking altogether. Static is often found on Electric-type Pokémon, and it can provide a strategic advantage by hindering the opponent's ability to execute their moves effectively. When your lead Pokémon has the ability Static, wild Pokémon have a 50% chance to be Electric type... if available on that route, that is!
