Learn how the Solid Rock ability in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl reduces Super Effective damage for Pokémon like Camerupt and Rhyperior.

Pokémon with Solid Rock: Camerupt, Rhyperior

Ability Effect: When a Pokémon with the Solid Rock ability is active in battle, any attack that is Super Effective against it will have its damage amount decreased. For example, a Grass-type attack against a Pokémon that is both Ground-type and Rock-type, and possesses the Solid Rock ability, will have its damage resisted.

Tips
  • This ability is particularly useful for Pokémon with multiple weaknesses, as it provides a general damage reduction against their most vulnerable types.
  • Consider the STAB (Same-Type Attack Bonus) of your opponent's moves when facing a Pokémon with Solid Rock, as this can sometimes offset the damage reduction.
