Clear Body (Japanese:クリアボディClear Body) is anAbility introduced inGeneration III.

Effect

In battle

Clear Body prevents stat reduction caused by other Pokémon's moves and Abilities (such asScary Face andIntimidate), includingSticky Web. Clear Body does not prevent self-inflicted stat reductions such as from moves likeSuperpower orShell Smash.

Clear Body only protects from effects that lower stat stages, so it does not prevent stat reduction from items like theIron Ball, thestatus conditionsparalysis orburn, or the movesGuard Split orPower Split.

Clear Body does not prevent stat stages being directly modified byHeart Swap,Guard Swap,Power Swap,Baton Pass, orTopsy-Turvy. It does not preventSpectral Thief from stealing (i.e., resetting) positive stat changes.

This Ability is ignored bymoves andAbilities that ignore Abilities, such asMold Breaker.

Outside of battle

Clear Body has no effect outside of battle.
