Learn how the Normalize ability in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl transforms moves into Normal-type, affecting damage and type matchups.
When a Pokémon with the Normalize ability is active, all of its moves are converted to the Normal Type. For example, if a Pokémon uses Thunderbolt, it will deal Normal-type damage instead of Electric-type damage. This means it will do normal damage to Water-type Pokémon but will be able to hit Ground-type Pokémon, which are normally immune to Electric-type attacks.
Tips
- Consider the strategic implications of Normal-typing moves against various opponent types.
- This ability can be particularly useful for hitting Pokémon that would otherwise resist or be immune to certain attacks.
