Beast Boost (Japanese: ビーストブースト Beast Boost) is an Ability introduced in Generation VII. It is shared by all of the Ultra Beasts.

Effect

In battle

When a Pokémon with Beast Boost causes another Pokémon (including allies) to faint through direct damage, its highest stat (other than HP) rises by one stage. If its highest stat is already at +6 stages, Beast Boost will not activate (not even in the case of a tie of two or more stats).

For determining the highest stat, Beast Boost does not take into account stat stages, held items, or reductions due to status conditions; however, it does consider the effects of Power Split, Guard Split, Power Trick, Wonder Room, and Speed Swap. In the case of a tie between multiple stats, it increases one stat, prioritized in this order: Attack, Defense, Special Attack, Special Defense, and Speed.

Outside of battle

Beast Boost has no effect outside of battle.
