To boost its overall damage output, the Special Defense-ignoring effect of Infiltrator has been buffed, making it easier to stack while raising its maximum potential. Additionally, to compensate for its low mobility and fragility, the cooldown of Imprison has been lowered to give it more frequent self-defense.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>[Dragapult]<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u2022 Boosted Attack<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Damage: 8% Increase<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u2022 Dragon Dance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Basic attack damage during the move: 11% Increase<br \/>\nBoosted attack damage during the move: 20% Increase<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u2022 Shadow Ball<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">HP recovery: 15% of Max HP \u2192 20% of Max HP<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>\u2022 Unite Move: Dreep and Destroy<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 80px;\">Damage: 8% Increase<\/p>\n<p>Dragapult&#8217;s overall damage has been buffed to help it better capitalize on its high mobility and strong basic attacks.

To help it trade damage with Sp. Atk-heavy opponents, its Sp.
