Imposing Wings

ID: 697
Type: Combination Ability
Breakable: Yes

Effect

Imposing Wings combines the effects of Giant Wings and Levitate, providing both offensive enhancement and ground immunity.

Extended In-Game Description

Majestic wings grant complete immunity to Ground-type moves and boost the power of airborne attacks by 30%. The Pokemon floats gracefully above the battlefield, untouchable by terrestrial assaults while its precise aerial maneuvers become devastatingly effective against earthbound foes below.

Technical Details

  • Giant Wings Component: Increases damage of air-based moves by 30% (1.3x multiplier)
  • Levitate Component: Provides immunity to Ground-type moves and arena trap effects
  • Breakable: This ability can be disabled by moves like Gastro Acid or Worry Seed
  • Implementation: Delegates to both GiantWings.onOffensiveMultiplier and Levitate.onOffensiveMultiplier functions

Affected Moves

Air-based moves that receive the 30% power boost include:

  • Fly, Bounce, Sky Attack
  • Aeroblast, Air Slash, Hurricane
  • Gust, Twister, Tailwind
  • And other moves with the airBased flag

Strategic Use

This ability excels on Pokemon that rely on Flying-type attacks while providing crucial Ground immunity. Particularly effective in formats with common Ground-type moves like Earthquake. The combination makes the Pokemon a formidable aerial threat while maintaining defensive utility.
