Oblivious (Japanese: どんかん Thickheaded) is an Ability introduced in Generation III.
Effect
In battle
Generation III
Oblivious prevents the Pokémon from being afflicted by infatuation.
A Pokémon with this Ability will be cured of infatuation if it is infatuated while in battle (such as if it gains the Ability by an effect like Skill Swap, or is infatuated by a Pokémon with an Ability like Mold Breaker).
If a Pokémon is infatuated and has a status condition, if its infatuation is cured by Oblivious, the status condition icon will not disappear.
Generation IV
In addition to preventing infatuation, Pokémon with Oblivious are unaffected by Captivate.
If a Pokémon is infatuated and has a status condition, if its infatuation is cured by Oblivious, the status condition icon will disappear from the HP bar while it is in battle. The status condition will continue to take effect, however.
If the Pokémon with this Ability is infatuated and is holding a Mental Herb, Oblivious will cure the Pokémon of infatuation before the Mental Herb has a chance to be consumed. If the Pokémon with this Ability is holding a Destiny Knot, the Destiny Knot will be activated before Oblivious cures the Pokémon of infatuation.
Generation V
If a Pokémon is infatuated and has a status condition, if its infatuation is cured by Oblivious, the status condition icon will not disappear.
If the Pokémon with this Ability is infatuated and is holding a Mental Herb, the Mental Herb will be consumed before Oblivious cures the Pokémon of infatuation.
Generation VI
In addition to preventing infatuation, Oblivious now prevents the Pokémon from being afflicted by Taunt.
A Pokémon with this Ability will be cured of Taunt if it is taunted while in battle (such as if it gains the Ability by an effect like Skill Swap, or is taunted by a Pokémon with an Ability like Mold Breaker). If the Pokémon is holding a Mental Herb, it will be consumed before Oblivious cures the Pokémon of the Taunt.
Outside of battle
Oblivious has no effect outside of battle.
