==Effect==
Levitate makes the Pokémon immune to all -Type moves with the exception of Thousand Arrows. Pokémon with Levitate also do not take damage from Spikes, do not become poisoned from Toxic Spikes or have their speed lowered from Sticky Web. Types with Levitate do not clear Toxic Spikes upon switching in. Pokémon with levitate do not gain the effects of terrain. All of these effects are nullified if the Pokémon is holding an Iron Ball, used Ingrain, was hit by Smack Down, or Gravity is in effect.

== Trivia ==
* As of Generation VIII, there are 41 Pokémon that have Levitate, making it the most common ability to date.
**No Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII have this ability.
**Of these 41 Pokémon, 35 of them have Levitate as their sole ability, while the Koffing and Bronzor families have a secondary and hidden ability, while Duskull has just a hidden ability.
**Vikavolt is the only Generation VII Pokémon that has Levitate.
*Although all of Rotom's appliance forms retain Levitate, Fan Rotom's secondary type makes it immune to -type moves to begin with, thus making Levitate redundant.
*Unlike with Spikes, Toxic Spikes, and Sticky Web, Pokémon with Levitate are not immune to Stealth Rock, as the entry hazard takes weaknesses into account.
*Thanks to this ability, the Tynamo family has no weaknesses, until they are affected by Iron Ball, Gastro Acid, Neutralising Gas, or Smack Down.
