Tangled Feet is an ability in the Pokémon series that activates under specific conditions and provides a unique tactical advantage in battles. Here are the key details and interesting aspects of this ability:
Effects
Primary Effect: When a Pokémon with Tangled Feet becomes confused, its evasion increases by 50%. This means that during confusion, opposing moves are less likely to hit the Pokémon with Tangled Feet.
Mechanics: The evasion boost applies only while the Pokémon is in a state of confusion. Once the confusion ends, the evasion boost is also removed. This makes Tangled Feet particularly valuable in situations where confusion is prevalent, either through moves like Swagger or through the Pokémon’s own moves like Thrash or Petal Dance.
