Dancer
Dancer is a unique ability in Pokémon that allows a Pokémon to copy the dance moves of other Pokémon in the battle. When any other Pokémon on the field uses a move categorized as a dance move, a Pokémon with the Dancer ability will immediately use that same move in response, after the original move has been executed. This effect can trigger multiple times in a turn, as long as dance moves are performed.
Effects:
- Copying Dance Moves:
- A Pokémon with Dancer will automatically use any dance move performed by any other Pokémon on the field. Noteworthy dance moves include Swords Dance, Quiver Dance, Dragon Dance, and Teeter Dance.
- Activation Order:
