Chlorophyll
Summary
Chlorophyll is an ability in the Pokémon series that doubles the user's Speed stat when the weather condition is sunny, specifically during the effects of the move Sunny Day or the ability Drought. This ability allows Pokémon to take advantage of the enhanced sunlight to outspeed their opponents, potentially turning the tide of battles.
Effects: 1. Speed Doubling: Under sunny weather conditions, a Pokémon with Chlorophyll will have its Speed stat doubled. This boost makes it possible for typically slower Pokémon to strike first, allowing them to set up moves, use status conditions, or land powerful hits before their opponents can react. 2. Strategic Combinations: Chlorophyll can be combined with other abilities and moves to maximize its effectiveness. For example, pairing a Chlorophyll Pokémon with another Pokémon that knows Sunny Day or has Drought can ensure that the sunlight condition is maintained for as long as possible.
Interesting Facts: 1. Common Users: Many Grass-type Pokémon possess the Chlor
Effects
