Redirects eligible single-target Electric-type moves to this Pokémon. Applicable Electric-type moves are absorbed instead of damaging it and raise Special Attack by one stage, including when the holder is Ground-type. Outside battle in BDSP, a lead holder gives a 50% chance to force an eligible Electric-type encounter when that type is present in the encounter table.
