About the Tinted Lens ability

Tinted Lens is one of 112+ abilities in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Each Pokémon has one active ability at a time, drawn from a list of 1-3 possible abilities per species (the third slot, when present, is the Hidden Ability — only accessible via Tera raids, Mass Outbreaks, or Ability Patch).

Official game text: The Pokémon can use énot very effectiveé moves to deal regular damage.

How it works: The power of �not very effective� moves is doubled.

How to get a Pokémon with Tinted Lens

If Tinted Lens is a regular ability (not Hidden Ability), simply catch the Pokémon and it has a 50% chance per slot of having Tinted Lens. You can use an Ability Capsule (50 BP at Chansey Supply) to swap between regular ability slots. If Tinted Lens is the Hidden Ability of one of the 2 Pokémon listed above, you'll need either:

To catch the Pokémon from a 5-star or 6-star Tera raid
To use an Ability Patch (consumable from picnic crafting / raid rewards) on a Pokémon that already has Tinted Lens as a regular ability
To transfer a Pokémon with Hidden Ability via Pokémon HOME from older games
