Abilities
Ability 1
The Pokémon's competitive spirit makes it deal more damage to Pokémon of the same gender, but less damage to Pokémon of the opposite gender.
Ability 2
When the Pokémon enters a battle, it intimidates opposing Pokémon and makes them cower, lowering their Attack stats.
It's so gutsy that having a status condition boosts the Pokémon's Attack stat.
