How does wake-up-slap interact with comatose?

Question

Would it just always get the boost? And would it remove comatose ability to let it sleep?

Answer 1

The Pokémon with this Ability takes double damage from Hex and Wake-Up Slap; can be affected by Dream Eater, Nightmare, and Bad Dreams; and cannot successfully use Rest. However, due to not actually having the sleep status condition, the Pokémon with this Ability is not considered to have a status condition for the purposes of effects such as Purify and Chesto Berries.

It will take double damage and not wake up.

Hope this helps! :)

That's so weird, Showdown doesn't show that it does double damage.

Comatose is immune to all forms of ability manipulation, including Entrainment.
