2e. Special Conditions                                                  [mjsts]
======================

Taken from the Pokemon TCG, I use the term "Special Condition" to refer to
major status effects. These can only be inflicted one at a time.

BRN - Burn. Attack stat is cut in half. Damaged by 1/8 max HP between turns. Go
      to a Pokemon Center or use a Rawst Berry, Lum Berry, Burn Heal, Full
      Heal, or Full Restore to cure this condition.

FNT - Faint. Cannot be used in battle. Go to a Pokemon Center or use a Revive,
      Rare Candy (at Lv.99 or lower), or Max Revive to cure this condition.*

FRZ - Freeze. Cannot attack. If Flamethrower or Fire Blast is used on the
      Frozen Pokemon, said Pokemon will defrost. Also, if said Pokemon uses
      Flame Wheel or Sacred Fire, user will also defrost. May defrost after a
      random number of turns. Go to a Pokemon Center or use an Aspear Berry,
      Lum Berry, Ice Heal, Full Heal, or Full Restore to cure this condition.

PAR - Paralyze. Speed is cut by 75%, 20% chance per turn of being immobilized.
      Have the move Smellingsalt used on you, go to a Pokemon Center, or use a
      Cheri Berry, Lum Berry, Parlyz Heal, Full Heal, or Full Restore to cure
      this condition.

PSN - Poison. HP will drop by 1/16 between turns. The exception to this is if
      the PSN status is inflicted by the use of Toxic or Poison Fang, in which
      case poison damage begins at 1/16 max HP and increases between turns.
      Outside of battle, each Pokemon inflicted with the PSN status will lose 1
      HP for every four steps taken by the Trainer. Go to a Pokemon Center, or
      use a Pecha Berry, Lum Berry, Full Heal, Full Restore, or an Antidote to
      cure this condition.

SLP - Sleep. Cannot attack unless Sleep Talk or Snore is used. Will wear off in
      battle after a random amount of turns. If the SLP status is inflicted by
      use of Rest, it will wear off in two turns (one if the Pokemon has the
      Early Bird Ability). Go to a Pokemon Center, or use a Blue Flute, Chesto
      Berry, Lum Berry, Full Heal, Poke Flute, Full Restore, or an Awakening to
      cure this condition.

* - While FNT can be considered a Special Condition, when I tell you to inflict
a Special Condition (like for catching legendaries), I do not mean to inflict
the FNT status, even though a few moves do just that (Horn Drill, for example).
