Aggravation (Skill)

Aggravation	妨害確率上昇
	Increase Interference Chance
Flavor text Passive Skill Raises the chance of inflicting the flinching, confused, or trapped condition with the additional effects of moves.

Aggravation (Japanese: 妨害確率上昇 Increase Interference Chance) is a family of skills in Pokémon Masters EX.

Effect

Aggravation increases the chance of inflicting the flinching, confused, or trapped condition if the move has a secondary effect of causing these conditions. The skill can range from Aggravation 1 to Aggravation 9, with higher numbered skills resulting in a greater increase in the chance of inflicting these conditions. The chance is calculated according to the below formula.

${\text{Overall Chance}}(\%)={\text{Move's Base Chance}}(\%)\times (1+({\text{Skill Rank}}\times {\text{Number of Passives}}))$

The chance of inflicting the flinching, confused, or trapped condition is reduced for moves which target more than one opponent. The overall chance is reduced to two-thirds per target if the move targets two Pokémon; while the overall chance is halved per target if the move targets three Pokémon.
