Abilities

Intimidate — When the Pokémon enters a battle, it intimidates opposing Pokémon and makes them cower, lowering their Attack stats.
Flash Fire — If hit by a Fire-type move, the Pokémon absorbs the flames and uses them to power up its own Fire-type moves.
Justified (hidden) — When the Pokémon is hit by a Dark-type attack, its Attack stat is boosted by its sense of justice.
