Water Absorb

Absorbs Water moves, healing for 1/4 max HP.

How it works

Whenever a Water-type move hits this Pokémon, it heals for 1/4 of its maximum HP, negating any other effect on it.

Water moves will ignore this Pokémon's Substitute.

Effects can vary between games. This is the synced main-series reference; check the rules of the game you are playing.
