Sweet-Veil

Sweet Veil is an ability in the Pokémon series that prevents the Pokémon and its allies from falling asleep. This effect is active as long as the Pokémon with Sweet Veil is on the battlefield. It prevents both moves such as Hypnosis and sleep-inducing abilities or effects from putting Pokémon to sleep, which can be crucial in battles where sleep moves are commonly used to incapacitate opponents.

Introduced in Generation VI, Sweet Veil is primarily seen in Pokémon such as Slurpuff and Aromatisse. This ability can be particularly advantageous in double battles because it affects the entire team, not just the Pokémon with the ability. This team-wide protection means that strategic play involving moves like Spore or Sleep Powder from opponents can be entirely nullified, forcing them to rethink their approach.

Additionally, Sweet Veil does not prevent the Pokémon from falling asleep due to Rest, a move which a Pokémon uses willingly to heal itself and then sleep for two turns. This
