Shudder? What does it mean exactly?

- There is just a message saying "Croagunk shuddered with anticipation!"DCM 15:41, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- To shudder is along the lines of shaking in fear. ~$aturn¥oshi THE VOICES 17:09, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
- I know what shudder means, but how exactly does it affect the game? TheBlazikenMaster 02:46, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
- It's...just a warning. I don't really understand what you're trying to ask.--Loveはドコ? (talk • contribs) 02:55, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

- The question is, does it count even non-damaging moves, say, Rest? TTEchidna 17:42, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
- No, I'm pretty sure it only applies to moves that cause damage. Diachronos 17:34, 26 September 2008 (UTC)

Absol?
Look at the trivia section on Absol's page. Should we add this to the Anticipation article? --Kimori Geckarbor Hinoarashi 18:52, 18 October 2009 (UTC) Kimori-Hinoarashi
Double effective
Should it be noted that all Pokemon that can have this normally (ie, not Eevee, since that's hidden) all have a double weakness? Barboach/Whiscash have 4x weakness to Grass, Wormadam (in plant or trash cloaks, I suppose) have 4x against Fire, and Croagunk/Toxicroak have 4x against Psychic. --Aescula 02:16, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
