No Guard (ability)
Effect
No Guard ensures that all attacks used by, and targeted at, the ability-bearer hit without fail.
This includes moves used on a Pokémon in the hidden
stages of the moves Fly, Dive, Dig and Shadow Force.
Outside of battle
If a Pokémon with No Guard is the leading party Pokémon, wild Pokémon are twice as likely to appear.
