Eelevate renders the Pokémon with this Ability immune to damaging Ground-type moves (except Thousand Arrows) and causes its highest stat (other than HP) to increase by one stage for each Pokémon knocked out by a damage-dealing move from the Pokémon with Eelevate. It also makes it ungrounded, therefore unaffected by the effects of Arena Trap, Spikes, Toxic Spikes, Sticky Web, Rototiller, and terrain.Additionally, Poison-type Pokémon with Eelevate do not remove Toxic Spikes upon switching in.
These immunities are lost during Gravity or if the Pokémon with Eelevate is holding an Iron Ball, is under the effects of Ingrain, or has been hit by Smack Down or Thousand Arrows.
