Forms

Abilities

Pickup

At the end of each turn, if another Pokémon consumed or Flung a held item that turn, this Pokémon picks up the item if it is not already holding one. After each battle, this Pokémon has a 10% chance of picking up an item if it is not already holding one. The Air Balloon and Eject Button cannot be picked up. The items that may be found vary by game, and, since Pokémon Emerald, by the Pokémon's level. This ability is checked after the battle ends, at which point any temporary ability changes have worn off.

Gluttony

This Pokémon eats any held Berry triggered by low HP when it falls below 50% of its HP, regardless of the Berry's usual threshold.

Quick FeetHidden

Whenever this Pokémon has a major status ailment, it has 1.5× its Speed. This Pokémon is not affected by the usual Speed cut from paralysis. Overworld: If the lead Pokémon has this ability, the wild encounter rate is halved.

Linoone always runs full speed and only in straight lines. If facing an obstacle, it makes a right-angle turn to evade it. This Pokémon is very challenged by gently curving roads.
Omega Ruby

When hunting, Linoone will make a beeline straight for the prey at a full run. While this Pokémon is capable of topping 60 mph, it has to come to a screeching halt before it can turn.
Alpha Sapphire

It charges prey at speeds over 60 mph. However, because it can only run straight, it often fails.

When running in a straight line, it can top 60 miles per hour. However, it has a tough time with curved roads.
FireRed · LeafGreen

It is exceedingly fast if it only has to run in a straight line. When it spots pond- dwelling prey underwater, it quickly leaps in and catches it with its sharp claws.
