Swarm is an ability that strengthens Bug moves in a pinch. This means that when a Template:Type2 move is used, it will do 150% of its damage if the Pokémon using it is below 30% of its HP. In Pokémon Emerald, this ability also increases the rate in which the cries of wild Pokémon could be heard on the field. In Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl, having a Pokémon withe the ability Swarm at the front of your party increases the chances of encountering a Template:Type2 Pokémon in the wild. Twelve Pokémon have this ability.
