− | For most Pokemon, Curse increases attack & defence exchanged for speed. But for [[ghost]] Pokemon, It puts the opponent in a cursed status that inflicts damage on the target every turn until it wears off. The user loses 1/2 of their HP. This Ghost-type variation of Curse CANNOT be immuned to all types of Pokemon. When using Nightmare and Ghost Pokemon's Curse, they inflict a significant amount of damage.[[Image:MissingNo.GhostSprite.png|frame|Ghosts take the REAL recoil from Curse, (Including Giratina)]] |
