Ability	Effect
Anchored	Cannot be forced out of battle. It is holding something in place.
Bad Vibes	On entry, lowers the Attack of opposing creechers. The mood in the room shifts.
Built Different	Survives a hit that would knock it out from full HP with 1 HP left. Ships lose.
Caffeinated	Speed rises every turn. It is not okay.
Cloud Storage	Summons rain the moment it enters battle. Everything is backed up now.
Compound Eyes	Boosts move accuracy.
Derivative	Copies an opposing creecher's ability on entry. Inspired by, not infringing.
Doesn't Care	Ignores the opponent's stat changes entirely.
Doomscrolling	Cannot fall asleep. Hasn't in years.
Five Finger Discount	May find an item lying around after a won battle. Don't ask where it came from.
Frame Data	Boosted critical-hit ratio. It has studied the matchup.
Hard to Look At	On entry, lowers the accuracy of opposing creechers. They keep glancing away.
High Ping	Always acts last, but its moves never miss. Half a second behind reality, dead on target.
Just a Guy	Greg is a guy.
Levitate	Immune to Ground-type moves and grounded hazards.
Petty	Sharply raises Attack whenever a foe lowers one of its stats. It remembers.
Piping Hot	Contact with this creecher may burn the attacker.
Precedent	Takes reduced damage from any move used on it twice in a row. That argument has already been heard.
Regenerator	Restores a third of its HP when it switches out.
Rock Head	Protects it from recoil damage. (No recoil moves exist in v1 — this ability currently does nothing, like its owner's namesake.)
Rough Skin	Attackers that make contact take damage.
Service	Its moves ignore evasiveness. You have been located.
Shed Skin	May shrug off status conditions at the end of each turn.
Short Fuse	Raises Sp. Atk when a hit drops it to half HP or below.
Spite	Status conditions make it hit harder, and burns don't sap its Attack. Powered entirely by grudge.
Static	Contact with this creecher may paralyze the attacker.
Swift Swim	Doubles Speed in rain.
Thick Suit	Halves damage from physical moves. Tailored.
Troll	Status moves go first. Annoying on purpose.
Vindicated	Attack rises whenever it knocks something out. Told you so.
Workload	Multi-hit moves always land the maximum number of hits. Every task gets done.
