Which abilities benifit from sun?

Question

Abilities like chlorophyll and solar power

Answer 1

As of Gen 9, Protosynthesis is also an ability that gets activated in sun.

• Protosynthesis boosts the user's highest stat in sun by 1.3x, but if it's speed, then it gets boosted by 1.5x

---

Other abilities boosted by sun:

-Chlorophyll doubles the speed of the holder in sun

-Flower Gift Gives the holder and it's ally an attack and special defense boost in sun

-Forecast from castform in sun turns castform into sunny mode.

-Leaf Guard prevents status effects from affecting the holder in sun

-Solar power boosts the holder's special attack by 50% in sun, but at the cost of 1/8 of the holder's health every turn as long as there is sun

-Harvest guarantees a restored berry in sun.

Can you change the answer so it includes the full list, so then we can give it BA.

Answer 2

I believe there are just four:

• Chlorophyll
• Solar Power
• Flower Gift
• Leaf Guard

However, Dry Skin is also affected by sunlight, but loses HP instead of being benefited by it.

Answer 3

Chlorophyll
Flower gift
Forecast only for castform
Harvest
Leaf guard
Solar power

Dang, forgot Harvest...! : )
Also, I don't think Forecast applies, because it's not really being benefited...

---

Forcast benefits for castform by turning it to a fire type so it does count as being benifited by the sun

---

It's more of a neutral effect, because becoming a Fire-type is not necessarily a benefit.
