Summary

Ekans is a Poison-type Pokémon known for its resemblance to a snake. It is the first-stage evolution in its evolutionary line, evolving into Arbok starting at level 22. Ekans is recognized for its serpentine body and its ability to move silently, making it a feared opponent in the wild.

Type: Poison

Abilities: - Intimidate: When Ekans enters battle, it lowers the Attack stat of all opposing Pokémon by one stage. This ability can be particularly useful for weakening physical attackers right off the bat. - Shed Skin: This ability gives Ekans a 1 in 3 chance of healing from a status condition (such as poison, paralysis, or sleep) at the end of each turn. - Hidden Ability (Unnerve): This prevents opposing Pokémon from using held Berries. It can be strategically advantageous, especially in competitive battles where Berries are frequently used.
